The card game is based on simple mathematical calculations. If the total of the competitor’s cards is greater than the croupier’s cards while not going over 21 the player is the winner. But at the same time if a competitor’s hand goes over twenty-one that is referred to as a "bust" and the player immediately lose.
In one and two deck games games, the cards are left facing down. The players can hold the cards, while in the ’shoe games’, gamblers are not permitted to touch the cards that are face up to him.
