Learn the Inside Secrets for Winning at Blackjack

Blackjack originated in France as early as the seventeenth century and was originally called “vingt-et-un” which translates into English as 21. Blackjack has also been called 21, pontoon, and California aces. In the original French version of the game a player could win by drawing a jack of spades followed by an ace of spades. This is how the term blackjack was created to describe this card game.

Blackjack came to the United Sates following the French revolution and quickly became a very popular game in casinos. Players quickly realized that through gambling they could play the odds and manipulate blackjack hands. In the early 1900's gambling was outlawed in the states and had to go underground. At this time the game became associated with organized crime.
