A soft 21 in blackjack is a hand consisting of a ten and an Ace. This hand is considered to be a good hand because it has a high chance of achieving a high score. When playing blackjack, players are typically given two options: hit or stay. If a player hits, they will receive points for their hand and the dealer will add one point to the player’s score.
If the player decides to stay, the dealer will then draw two cards. If the dealer has a soft 21, they will replace the Ace with a two and draw another card. This means that the player will still have a good chance of winning even if their original hand does not qualify for a high score.
