Deal me in and double down!

You’re sitting at a Blackjack table in Vegas. Showing no emotion, you peek at your two cards. They add up to 16. Taking a deep breath, you tap the table in front of you. The dealer slides a card from the top of the deck and deals it to you. You turn over the card and see it’s a five of diamonds. You have 21!

Now you can take the excitement of Las Vegas Blackjack anywhere you go with Hit Me 21! You’ll be swinging just like the high rollers as you coolly tap to Hit or calmly wave your hand to Stand over the felt! Just don’t bust and whenever possible, split and doubledown!

Good luck!

HOW TO PLAY

The object of the game is to be dealt cards that add up to be higher than the dealer’s cards without going over 21. All cards equal their own number except for face cards (Jacks, Queens, and Kings), which each represent 10. Aces can be either 1 or 11.

To begin, press the ON / DEAL / HIT button to turn the game ON or wake it from Sleep Mode.

Next, place your bet by pressing the BET / RIDE button. Press it again to increase your bet.

Press the ON / DEAL / HIT button or do a HIT MOTION to have the dealer DEAL the cards.

Once you’ve been dealt two cards you can choose to HIT, STAND, or SURRENDER. Do a HIT MOTION to be dealt another card. If you don’t want another card, do a STAND MOTION. If you wish to give up and only lose half your bet, press the SURRENDER button.

NOTE: If you want you can use the ON/DEAL/HIT or STAND button during the game.

If the dealer’s hand is 16 or less, the dealer will automatically draw additional cards. The dealer will automatically STAND on 17 or higher.

HINT: It is often thought that a player should always STAND on 17 or higher and HIT on 16 and below. This is merely a gambler’s rule of thumb and doesn’t always win.

If you draw enough cards that are closer to 21 than the dealer’s hand, you win!

Notes: Bright or close lighting such as halogen lights near to the product may delay game play.
