Blackjack is also known as “The Hit or Stand game”. Your score is determined by your ability to make correct moves on each hand. After the cards are dealt, you have the option to Hit, Stand, Double, or Split. An illegal move will be counted incorrect. If your move is legal, it will be determined to be correct or incorrect based on the strategy tables as blackjack strategy does change from casino to casino. The game has two modes of play: easy and difficult. In both modes you will be dealt 20 hands, and your final score will be the percentage of correct moves you made. In difficult mode, the hands will by more challenging, and you will only have four seconds to make each decision. This is a Bonus Round in which a a player who scores a 100% after the 20 hands will qualify to the bonus round. In the bonus round, you will be given one minute to make as many correct moves as possible. For each correct move you will be awarded one bonus point.
