The course of the game

STEP 1: The bet

Each player bets the amount he wishes on the "POK" box and the "21" box.

STEP 2: Distribute the cards

The croupier deals 2 cards to each player as well as one to himself.

STEP 3: Hand analysis

From 2 to 9, each card has its face value
The 10, Jacks, Queens and Kings are the Logs: they all have a value of 10
Aces are equal to 1 or 11 depending on the player's game. The ace always takes the value that benefits the player the most.

The combination of an Ace and a Log is the best with a total of 21 in 2 cards

STEP 4: Players' turn

OPTION 1: DRAW A CARD

The player reckons draws a third to get closer to 21 (without going over).

OPTION 2: PASSING THE HAND

The player believes that his hand will be enough to beat the dealer, or thinks that the next card will make him exceed the maximum total of 21.

OPTION 3: DOUBLE THE BET

The player can double his bet if he considers his hand to be favorable. He therefore receives a third card

OPTION 4: SEPARATE THE PAIRS

If the player has a pair, he can split them to form 2 hands. He must double his bet

STEP 5: Dealer's game turn

The dealer draws a new card until the sum is greater than 16. He stops the draw when the minimum total is reached.
In Poker 21, the dealer's hand must be greater than 16.

STEP 6: Distribution of the winnings of the bet "21"

1st case: the player obtains a score greater than the Croupier but less than or equal to 21 in addition to 2 cards -> Win: 1 X the starting bet
2nd case: the player has a lower hand than that of the Croupier -> The player loses his bet
3rd case: the player and the croupier are tied -> No win
4th case: the player reaches 21 in 2 cards, the Croupier pays 3 for 2 unless there is a tie, there is no win
