What Is a Five Card Charlie in Blackjack?

A Five Card Charlie in Blackjack is a hand in which the player receives five cards, but does not want to hold any of them. This can be achieved by putting all five cards onto the table, or by drawing one card and putting four other cards on top of it (forming a “four of a kind”).

In either case, the player must then declare whether or not they want to hold the fifth card. If they do not, it is automatically added to their hand.
