INSURANCE
If the dealer’s first card (showing) is an Ace, you
can place an insurance bet (5 points) by press-
ing this button. By doing this, you are betting
that the dealer has a Blackjack.
If the dealer has a Blackjack: If your hand is
not a Blackjack, your original bet and insurance
bet are returned to your score. If you have a
Blackjack also (push), you win double the
amount of your original bet and your insurance
bet will also be returned to your score.
If the dealer does not have a Blackjack: You
lose your insurance bet and the display will flash
“L O S E” and you then continue to play your
hand as you normally would play it.
SURRENDER
Lets you give up your hand before the third card
is dealt so that you lose only half of your bet (5
points).

PLAYING THE GAME
The object of the game of Blackjack is to accu-
mulate a higher card count than the dealer with-
out exceeding 21.
The computer plays Las Vegas style Blackjack
with a single deck of 52 cards. The cards are
automatically shuf
fled when approaching the
end of the deck.
Turn on the game by pressing the
DEAL/HIT
button. Press the DEAL/HIT button again to
place a 10, 20, 30, 40 or 50 point bet and deal
the cards, or press MAX BET for a 50 point bet
(Press HINTS if your not sure how much to bet).
After the cards are dealt, various words will flash
across the screen to tell you your options. (Use
the HINTS button to let the computer show you
the best option to choose).
Point values are assigned to all cards. Aces
count as either 1 or 11 points, while face cards
(K,Q,J) are counted as 10. All other cards are
counted at face value.
If you choose to r
eceive additional car
ds, press
the
DEAL/HIT button. If you want to keep only
the cards you have showing, press the STAND
button.
The dealer must draw on any hand showing 16
points or less, and will stand on all totals of 17
to 21 points.
If you can build a hand which is closer to 21
than the dealer’s hand
(without going over 21),
you win!
TRAINING MODES
TENS/OTHERS
This method of counting cards uses a ratio of
“Ten” cards to “Other” cards. “Ten” cards are
10’s, Jacks, Queens, and Kings. “Others” are
considered Ace though 9. The higher the ratio
of “T
en” car
ds to the “Other” car
ds, the mor
e the
player should bet. The lower the ratio of “Ten”
cards to “Other” cards, the player should bet
less. If ther
e ar
e a high number of “Ten” cards
remaining in the deck, the chances of winning
are better.
HIGH-LOW
This method of counting assigns a point value to
each car
d. Basically, the strategy is to bet more
when the “HIGH-LOW” point total is higher.
When the “HIGH-LOW” total is low, bet less.
Helpful Hints:
1. Always Split on pairs of Aces or 8’s.
2. Always Double down on 11.
3. Always Stand on Ace + 8 and Ace + 9 combi-
nations.
4. Always Hit on hand totals of 9 or less.
