What Is a Hit in Blackjack?

In blackjack, a “hit” is when a player card totals 21 or higher. This is an important point to remember because it determines whether the player is entitled to receive a payout or not. In most cases, if the player card totals at least 21, the player is automatically paid off.

There are, however, a few exceptions to this rule – for example, if the player card totals 10 through 19, then the player only receives a payout if the hand is won (i.e. if the dealer card total is 20 or less).
