Playing WinJack

Upon starting WinJack will shuffle the deck of cards. Betting must be done before dealing the cards by using the BetBar or entering an amount directly from 0 to 100. After which you may deal the cards. The player then hits until he gets close to 21 with out going over. When the player stands the deal will deal his own hand. The dealer will hit on or below 16 and stand on or above 17. The Bet is automatically added or subtracted from the player's assets.

Surrender

This is just like giving up and you'll lose half your bet. You can only surrender at the start of the hand.


Double Down

At the start of the hand you have the option of doubling your bet and taking one and only one additional card.


Split

You can split your hand when you are first dealt two cards of the same value. This then gives you 2 hands to play with while risking the bet amount with each hand. You can only play one hand at a time (the top and MUST be played first). Once you stand or bust on the top hand the next card will be dealt to the second hand.
