The rules of blackjack are fairly simple however there are small variations that can make a big difference to your wallet. Make sure you check out the rules before you start playing at a Casino online or in the real world.

If you want to learn how to card count you must learn the basic straegy by heart first, then take your skill into ther real world. Be wary though if the Casino suspects you of card counting you will be asked to leave.
