Chemin de Fer is one of the more well-known games wagered on in casinos. Black jack is also referred to as "twenty one" or "pontoon." The game is a mix of luck and ability combined with choices. The card game has changed over a period of time. Players have specialized in certain abilities like "card card counting," with which they shift the odds of the game in the players favor. The card game has been around since the 1700s. References can be seen in historical scriptures to a game referred to as "vingt-et-un," which means 21 in French, and is thought of as the ancestor to black jack.

The game was at first not so well-liked in the united states. This led to the betting houses attempting a variety of things like providing a bonus in case of a ten to one payout, if the player got a "black" jack and an ace of spades. The jack could be either the jack of clubs or jack of spades. Once the card game became well-known, the bonus pay out before long disappeared from the game.

Any hand which achieves a sum of 21 is deemed a winner. The total can not go beyond 21, if it does the hand is considered to be "bust." The aim of each player is to best the dealer. If both the black jack player and the casino have the identical score, it is called "push" (a tie), with not either the black jack player nor the croupier coming away with a win on the hand.
