How to play

Play each blackjack hand by the book.

You see the dealer's face-up card and your first two cards. The dealer's other card stays face down, and the dealer must keep drawing until they reach 17 or more. Pick the move that basic strategy says wins the most in the long run.

Five hands a day, one pick each: right or wrong. Table rules: 6 decks, dealer stands on soft 17, double after a split, no surrender. The full strategy chart has every answer.

New hands every day at midnight.
