  • BLACKJACK It’S Easy to Ace the Game of Blackjack, One of the Most Popular Table Games at Hollywood Casino and Around the World
    BLACKJACK It’s easy to ace the game of Blackjack, one of the most popular table games at Hollywood Casino and around the world. Object of the Game Your goal is to draw cards that total 21, or come closer to 21 than the dealer without going over. How To Play • The dealer and each player start with two cards. The dealer’s first card faces up, the second faces down. Face cards each count as 10, Aces count as 1 or 11, all others count at face value. An Ace with any 10, Jack, Queen, or King is a “Blackjack.” • If you have a Blackjack, the dealer pays you one-and-a-half times your bet — unless the dealer also has a Blackjack, in which case it’s a “push” and neither wins. • If you don’t have Blackjack, you can ask the dealer to “hit” you by using a scratching motion with your fingers on the table. • You may draw as many cards as you like (one at a time), but if you go over 21, you “bust” and lose. If you do not want to “hit,” you may “stand” by making a side-to-side waving motion with you hand. • After all players are satisfied with their hands the dealer will turn his or her down card face up and stand or draw as necessary. The dealer stands on 17 or higher. BLACKJACK Payoff Schedule All winning bets are paid even money (1 to 1), except for Blackjack, which pays you one-and-a-half times your bet or 3 to 2.

  • US Military Used the Ace of Spades to Scare the Viet Cong
    US Military Used The Ace Of Spades To Scare The Viet Cong National Card Playing Day is observed annually across the United States on December 28. In the 9th century, the Chinese began developing games using money and other paper objects. These early playing cards bear no resemblance to the sturdier European playing cards that developed a few centuries later. Card games spread around the world in a variety of shapes and styles. From the elaborate Mamluk designs of Egypt to the appearance of the first playing cards during the Early Renaissance in Europe, the decks were divided into four suits of coins, cups, swords and sticks or batons. It is from these four suits that today’s modern decks of playing cards developed. Theories range how the suits converted to hearts, spades, diamonds and clubs. One theory suggests the suits represent the different classes of the era – clergy, aristocracy, military and peasantry. In India, the ten suited card game of Ganjifa became popular during the Moghul period. Traditionally, artists hand paint a stunning scene on each of the 120 cards in the deck. A standard pack of cards may be used for playing a variety of card games, with varying elements of skill and chance, some of which are played for money. Some of the top card games include Spades, Poker, Solitaire, Spite and Malice, Hearts, Spoons, Gin Rummy, Ridge, Black Jack and Texas Hold’em. Of course, there are thousands of card games, some of which are regional favorites. The French suit symbols we are most familiar with (Hearts, Diamonds, Clubs and Spades) are a variation of the German suit symbols used in the late 1370s.

  • The Object in Bridge Play Is to Win Tricks for Your Side
    MINIBRIDGE: The Rules Players and Cards There are four players in two fixed partnerships. Partners sit facing each other. It is traditional to refer to the players according to their position at the table as North, East, South and West, so North and South are partners playing against East and West. The game is played clockwise. A standard 52-card pack is used. The cards in each suit rank from highest to lowest: A K Q J 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2. Play The object in bridge play is to win tricks for your side. A trick consists of four cards, one from each player in turn, clockwise around the table. Hence, there are 13 tricks to be won on each deal. The first card played to each trick is called the lead. • If it is your turn to lead, you may play any card in your hand. After the lead, however, the next three players have an obligation: • You must follow suit (play the same suit as the lead) if possible. For example, if a spade is led and your hand contains any spades, you must play one of them (you can play any spade you want). If you have no spades, the obligation is gone. • If you cannot follow suit, you may play any card in your hand. Except for the duty to follow suit, card play in bridge is a free choice. You play the cards any way you want, which is one of the reasons bridge is a superior game. After four cards have been played, the trick is complete.

  • ALL ABOUT DECEMBER December Is the Twelfth Month of the Year in the Julian and Gregorian Calendars
    “December’s wintery breath is already clouding the pond, frosting the pane, obscuring summer’s memory.” ~ John Geddes, A Familiar Rain ALL ABOUT DECEMBER December is the twelfth month of the year in the Julian and Gregorian calendars. The ancient Romans initially made December the tenth month of the year, but later, January and February were added to the calendar, making December the final month of the year. In the northern hemisphere, this month has the shortest daylight hours of the year, and it is one of the coldest months of the winter season. Also, did you know that December starts on the same day of the week as September and ends on the same day as April every year? BIRTHSTONE – TURQUOISE Turquoise has been a valued gemstone for thousands of years. Archaeologists have discovered turquoise jewelry on the mummified bodies of queens in Egyptian tombs and in ancient burial sites in Argentina, Peru, Mexico, and South America. The Incas commonly used the stone to craft beads and figurines, while the Aztecs used it to make pendants and ritual masks. The Chinese were carving it for decorative art over 3,000 years ago. Native Americans called the stone chal-cui-hui-tal, meaning “the highest and most valued thing in the world.” They believed the stone protected them from harm. Upon seeing a crack in their turquoise stone, they would say, “The stone took it”—that is, the turquoise took the force of a blow for me. Turquoise is also often used as a love charm. Some of Shakespeare’s characters gave the stone as a gift to earn the affection of others.
