What Are the Rules for the Dealer in Blackjack?

The dealer in blackjack is traditionally allowed to hold two cards, whether they are face up or face down. The dealer must turn over their hand at the end of the game, showing all five cards. If the dealer has a two and a one, they must turn over the two card. The dealer also must hit if they have an Ace, two through six.

If the player has an Ace through two, they get to draw one card and keep the other. There are also variations of blackjack that allow for more than two cards to be held by the dealer.
