However, if the dealer makes any other total including 21 with three or more cards, your Blackjack will win. In the event that the dealer also makes Blackjack, the hand will be a stand-off (a tie or draw) and you will neither win nor lose. The dealer will announce “Blackjack” and pay you at odds of 3 to 2. If your first two cards are an Ace and any ten-value card, you have Blackjack.
Picture cards (Jack, Queen and King) count as 10, Aces count as 1 or 11, whichever is to your advantage e.g. Blackjack is played with 3, 4, 6 or 8 decks of cards. The cards are dealt face-up so you can see your point value. You are dealt two cards, while the dealer takes one card.
