• Blackjack is also known as “Twenty-One.”• The point of the game is to get your cards to add up to 21. (Duh.)• Blackjack dealers don’t get paid a lot, but if you work at an interesting location,

you can probably see some cool people. Tips are usually given also, but all places vary.

• It’s played with a deck of 52 cards.

• It’s your turn, now here are your options:

“Hit" (take a card), “Split" (if the two cards have the same value, separate them & make two hands), “Stand" (end your turn), “Double“ (double wager, take a single card & finish), or “Surrender” (give up a half-bet & quit the game.)

Math /*+-. • To become a blackjack dealer, you have to take a small, “prescreen,” math test. You have to be able to add small numbers together very quickly.
