There are two main types of blackjack – Fixed-odds and Spinning-tables. In Fixed-odds blackjack, the dealer deals cards face down until someone drAWS a seven or a ten. At this point, the dealer flips over the top card of the deck and the game resumes with that player as the dealer. The player with the highest card (face up) wins that hand.
In Spinning-tables blackjack, each player bets on a certain number of hands (usually three) before betting again on another number of hands. After all hands are played, whoever has the most money (face up) wins that particular game. .
Based on these two types of blackjack, there are two possible outcomes for each hand: either the player has a higher card than the dealer and wins the hand, or the dealer has a higher card than the player and wins the hand.
Since there are 52 cards in a deck, there are a total of 26 different possible outcomes in Fixed-odds blackjack (7 through 10), and 36 different possible outcomes in Spinning-tables blackjack (1 through 36). So, if you play Fixed-odds blackjack with a standard deck of cards, there are approximately 2.
6 million different possible hands that can be played. If you play Spinning-tables blackjack with a standard deck of cards, there are approximately 102 million different possible hands that can be played.
