The basic premise of the game is to be handed cards adding up to twenty-one. Each gambler is handed two cards. When a blackjack player is dealt a 9 or less and an Ace they've been given a soft hand. When the gambler is dealt no Ace cards it is referred to as a hard hand. Once the cards have been handed to every player at the table, which includes the dealer, each gambler is given the opportunity to make 1 of 6 actions:

Requesting another card (Hit): When a gambler says hit me the dealer will deal him another card, if the addition of that card causes the total greater than twenty-one the gambler will have lost and be excluded from the game, if the card pushes the total to twenty one the player will be the winner and if the value of the hand hasn't yet achieved 21 they're still in the game.

Keeping the hand you have been dealt: If a player is satisfied with the hand they will hold. Once this has happened the dealer will disclose their hand and the gambler who has accumulated twenty-one or the closet to twenty-one will win.

Doubling Down: A blackjack player might ask to double down which increases the wager by 100% they have placed. As soon as you've taken this action you can only be given 1 additional card. The specifics of doubling down are often out lined by the blackjack table or betting house game rules so prior to betting make sure you're familiar with the casino game rules. If you are wagering at an on-line casino this is usually very easy.
