The Blackjack Card Values
Before we can learn how to play Blackjack, it is necessary that we first learn the corresponding values assigned to each card. Disregard the color and the kind of suits and refer to the chart below.
Notice that the cards with the numbers 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 on their faces are given the same value that they express. The deviation only comes with the other cards. A Jack, Queen, and King are given the value of 10. An
Ace is the determining card because it is assigned dual values and the real value will depend on your choice. An Ace can either have the value of 1 or 11, which you will apportion depending on the circumstances.
Quite easy, eh?
Knowing the corresponding values for the cards you will draw is required before you can learn the mechanics of this highly addictive, and yes, highly winnable, game.
