Real game in "21" (Point)
So:
Surely everyone knows the game 21 (the Soviet version), the rules are quite simple, and the game seems to be specially created in order to deceive people. There are many variants of the rules, but as a rule the meaning is the same.
Brief rules(Traditionally accepted in the former USSR)
Play: from 2 to 7 people.
They play with a deck of 36 sheets (without deuces and fives)
The goal of the game is to score 21 points or close to it and win money from the banker.
Card values: T-11 points, K-4, D-3, B-2, 10-10, 9-0, 8-8, 7-7, 6-6, Two aces (Moscow) - the highest combination.
Start of the game: All players bet the bank, except for the banker. The deck hangs out, the person sitting on the right removes the cards. Everyone is dealt two cards (at the first distribution) from the top of the deck, then the banker takes out bottom card deck and places it face up on top of the deck. All subsequent cards are dealt from the bottom of the deck.
Player wins:
1. If he has 21 points!
2. If he has more points than the banker.
3. If he has 2 Aces (Moscow)
4. If the banker has a bust > 21 points.
The player loses if:
1. He has a bust >21 points.
2. The banker and the player have the same number of points.
3. The player has fewer points than the banker.
The banker MUST stand on 17 points, and draw another card at 15 points!
Bank
All players bet the bank, except for the banker. The first player (sitting on the left) is in "obligation", to raise the bank "goes to any lengths", if he wins, then he becomes the Banker, if not, then he doubles the bank. The next player can play both for the entire bank and for its part, at his own discretion, etc. As soon as the bank "Triples", the banker can announce "Knock". After that, the cards are collected, shuffled and dealt again, only one at a time! The banker puts his card face up! Players based on their cards and open card bankers set rates. They must take all the money from the banker for this circle. All the money that remains after the "Knock", the banker takes for himself! The deck is passed to the player on the left (he becomes the Banker) and the game continues.
In general, these are traditional rules games, but they may differ in nuances: there are also insurance, rewards for scoring 21 points on five cards, etc. If anyone has additions or objections, write to me in the forum - we will discuss :)
Starting the game, you can join an existing application, or create your own.
When creating an application, it is possible to change the following parameters:
You can choose the level of opponents. There are two categories of "sandbox", which includes players who are rated appearance less than 10 points (and, accordingly, having less than 10 chips at the beginning of the game) and "advanced players", which includes players with an appearance rating of 10 or more.
You can choose a game deck to your liking.
You can set the game timeout. That is, the maximum time allotted to one player for one turn.
You can set the number of players. At the same time, from 2 to 4 participants, including the banker, can be at the gaming table.
You can choose to play for your rating, or play without rating. In the first case, you can win all kinds of bonuses, but you can also lose them. In the event that the game is played without taking into account the rating, neither victory nor defeat will be counted to you.
Point game rules
The game can be played by two to four players. They play with one deck of 36 cards. The seniority of the cards is not standard.
Jack - 2 points
Lady - 3 points
King - 4 points
Ace - 11 points
The rest of the cards are valued at face value when scoring.
The goal of the game is to score 21 points in total.
At the beginning of the game, the banker is determined. In our case, it is selected randomly from all participants in the game. The banker is chosen by the computer, so juggling is impossible in this case. The deck is shuffled, a bookmark is randomly inserted into it, dividing the deck into two parts.
Each player receives one card in his hand. After that, everyone can place their bet.
The first bet is the bet of the banker, i.e. the bank. This bet is the maximum possible for the player sitting on the bank. The banker bets everything he has. The total bet of all players at the table cannot exceed the amount of the pot.
The second bet is made by the player sitting to the left of the banker. If a the game is on for two, then the player can make the maximum bet equal to the bank. In the event that there are three players, the first player can bet the maximum amount of the pot minus 1. If the game is for four, the bet of the first player cannot exceed the amount of the pot minus 2. The minimum bet of any player playing against pot 1, even if if there is only 1 chip in the bank. The order of bets changes clockwise.
In the next stage of the game, the banker deals additional cards to each player, starting to his left and clockwise.
Any player on his turn may ask for an additional card if he sees fit, or refuse it. A player can have no more than 5 cards in his hand. The player who scores 21 points immediately wins. The player who scores the “golden point”, that is, who has two aces in his hands, also immediately wins. A player who scores more than 21 points automatically loses the bet. His bet goes to the bank. Players with less than 21 points wait until the banker gets the cards for himself. If the banker's score is greater than or equal to the player's score, the bet goes to the pot. If the total of the banker's points is less than the total of the player's points, the bet plus winnings goes to the player.
If the cards run out before the bookmark, and the game is not over, the deck is shuffled, a new bookmark is placed and the game continues.
We draw your attention to the fact that the probability of winning in the game "21 points", according to extras, is quite high - the advantage of the bank over the player is less than one percent. So striving to become a banker is not at all necessary.
Scoring
1 game to played games
If you played against the pot and won, you get:
If you played against the pot and lost, you get:
1 game to played games
If you banked and won, you get:
1 game to games played +1 to games won
If you banked and lost, you get:
1 game to played games
Calculation of the game rating for the game in Point
Playing against the bank, regardless of victory or defeat, as a result of the game receives a game rating equal to the number of chips won from the bank (or the amount of bets won).
Winning in game rubles will be the sum of the earned game rating multiplied by 5.
Blackjack strategies are based on the process of card counting. Cards are counted in order to reveal the probability of getting a card with the denomination we need from the deck. Undoubtedly, a good player cannot remember absolutely all the cards played if the game is played in several decks, so card counting should be taken literally.
For example, in the well-known Hi-Lo system, cards with a face value from 2-6 are considered +1, cards with a face value from 7 to 9 are equal to zero, and cards from 10 to Ace are equal as -1. If the total of played cards is above zero, he knows that there are more cards with a higher face value in the deck. The value gives the player an advantage over an opponent who has to play a complex strategy.All this is only in theory, but in practice, minor player errors are enough to equalize in the game. Nevertheless, Blackjack is not the last gambling game on WebMoney, a game on Qiwi or a game on Yandex.Money. And all thanks to its rich history.

Everyone has heard about the existence of such a game as 21 or a point, but not everyone knows the rules and subtleties of the game itself. Right now we will acquaint you with the rules and the essence of how to play point.
How to play 21 (point)?
The game belongs to the category gambling and has various names, so in Russia it became famous under the names like a point or 21 points, or just 21, in a foreign version you can find games like Blackjack, Baccarat and other games with similar rules. So let's find out how to play point, get acquainted with the meanings of the cards, the basic rules that the player needs to know and other important little things that will allow you to shine in the game with your opponent.
Basic rules of the point game:
The goal of the game is not treason - to win you need to score 21 points. The game can be played by an unlimited number of people from two or more. Since the game belongs to gambling, as a rule, when playing with a point, a system of bets on winnings is used. The game is played using a simple deck of 36 cards. At the beginning of the whole game, a banker is chosen from the participants or, in a simple way, dealing cards, it can be determined by a simple draw. After the banker has been determined, he deals the first round, in subsequent rounds the person following the banker clockwise can deal cards.
Before the start of the game, the banker shuffles the deck and allows the player to his right to withdraw 1 card, after this simple manipulation by the banker, the bank is announced and each of the players makes an already agreed bet. The cards are issued face down, one by one to each player, while the banker hands over a card from the bottom of the deck to himself and, opening it, puts it on top of the deck. All further delivery of cards in this horse will be made only from the bottom of the deck, and not from the top as for the first time. The banker always takes the first card. Now, when each player already has one card in his hand, he is obliged to continue the game until the end of the draw of the general bank. Before getting a second card in hand, the players assess the situation, make a refreshing bet to the pot, not exceeding the total amount in the pot at the moment, and either take the second card, or refuse it and stop with the number of points already scored.
The player who scored 21 points on the cards no longer has the right to take cards and announces to the others that he has 21, just like the player who scores 21 points can take his winnings at a bet from the bank. If the player scores more than 21 points (brute force), then he also reports this, then he, in turn, pays a debt to the bank, a double fee is paid to the bank for concealing the bust.
The discarded cards are placed at the top of the deck, under the banker's cards. The player who scores more points wins, if the banker and the player have the same number of points, then a draw is considered, the player can take the bet and make a new one - more or less than it was. In the event that a player breaks the bank and takes all the winnings, the right to deal cards is transferred to the next one in a clockwise direction.
There is a rule in the game according to which the addition of missing cards is carried out in a dark shirt up - the player has already scored 15 points in order to win them few. The player asks the banker for one more card, regardless of its face value, leaving it face down until the end of the draw, in which case the player protects himself from a double deposit (the player is not fined for going over points in the dark).
The bank of bets in the game is collected before the knock - an amount of money three times the banker's bet. If the banker announces a knock, the player may bet any amount up to the pot into the pot. In this case, when a player wins, he takes the amount won and, if he loses, he deposits (if the bank is 20 rubles, and the player bets 10 rubles, then if he wins, the bank will be 10 rubles, and if he loses, the bank will already have 30 rubles). According to the rules of the game of a point, all the money left after knocking goes to the banker.
The value of the cards when playing a point:
Jack - you have 2 points, queen - 3 points, king - 4 points, ace - 11 points (but sometimes it is assigned a face value of 1 point), all other cards go by their own value.
Hello friends!
In this article I want to tell you about one wonderful game in which I lost a lot of money! But despite this, I always liked the game. it card game 21 points.
This game, like baccarat or macau, is a kind of blackjack. She is often referred to simply as "Point".
You can buy marked cards for playing at 21
It is believed that "Twenty-one" was invented in the USSR, since then only Russian decks of 36 cards were in circulation, and decks of 52 cards were considered rare. So I had to replace deuces, triples, fours with Jacks, Queens and Kings. It is also referred to as prison games.

General rules of the game.
So how is the 21 point card game played? These are the rules of the game.
- First, it is decided who will be the banker, that is, the person who hands over the cards and keeps track of money in the bank. The meaning of the game is this: the banker puts some amount into the bank, and the players try to win this money from him in turn.
- When the cards are dealt, the banker plays each player in turn, starting with the one on the left. The player announces how much the pot he goes to. The amount can be any, but not more than the one in the bank.
- Let's say there are 100 rubles in the bank, and the player announces that he is going for 50 rubles. If he loses, he reports 50 rubles to the bank, and the banker plays with the next player. If he wins, he takes 50 rubles from the bank.
- If the player scores 21 points, then he wins automatically from the banker. At the same time, he gives his cards to the banker, and the banker puts them on top of the clipped card. This means that the cards are played and only those that remain from the bottom to the cut one are played.
- The banker can either play to the last card, or shuffle the deck each time and deal cards from a new shuffled deck.
The order in which cards are dealt and the order in which the game is played.
How are the cards dealt? What then? you rightly ask! I explain.
The banker begins dealing cards to each player, starting with the one to his left.
In total, one card is dealt, including yourself. The cards are dealt from the top of the deck.
When the banker puts himself the last card, then he then takes out a card from the bottom of the deck and puts it face down on top of the deck. It cuts the deck, so to speak.
What does it take to win?
So how do you win? You must use your cards to score a card total of 21 or close to it. If you bust (more than 21), then you lose automatically! To win, you must have more points than the banker.
Exactly more. Even if you have a draw, in this case they say “In the eyes!”, The banker still wins.
This is one of the advantages of playing a banker!
So you were dealt two cards, you look at the sum of their points and decide to take another card, in this case they say “More!”
If there are enough cards, then they say to the banker “Yourself!” or "Play for yourself!" and the banker begins to draw cards for himself.
In the game, all cards from 6 to 10 give points at face value. Jack-2 points, Queen-3 points, King-4 points, Ace-11 points.
There is another option that the Ace gives 1 point in the bust. That is, if 11 points give bust, then the Ace is considered as 1 point. This is agreed upon in advance.
"Golden Point" and other bonus combinations.
If the first two cards come two aces, then this is considered a "Golden Point" and such cards win immediately. In this case, the player immediately opens these two aces and takes the amount he was going for.
A hand that has five picture cards is also considered a winning hand, regardless of how many points they score. More incentive bonuses are paid if 21 is collected with cards 6 + 7 + 8 or 7 + 7 + 7.
But everything about this is also agreed in advance.
Game process.
For example 6 people play. The banker distributes one card to each. For example, the first player played and lost (or won), then the player deals his cards to the banker.
The banker either lays on top or shuffles the cards to play with the next player, but the cards left by the other players (who haven't played yet) remain on the table. They don't mix. Just like the banker's card.
If the players see that the banker is going to shuffle the cards, then they can look at their card, and if it does not suit them, then they can put it in the deck for shuffling, and after shuffling get a new one. This is optional.
The banker continues to play with the next player, keeping the same card that he previously dealt to himself. If the banker scores 20 points he wins automatically.
The nuances of the game
There are some other rules.
The banker must draw another card while he has 16 points or less and must stop if he has 17 points or more. After both the player and the banker have drawn their cards, the banker asks to open the cards to compare points.
If the player loses, then he reports to the bank the amount he played and waits for the banker to play with the rest. The banker stacks the played cards on top, takes a card from the bottom and continues to play with the next player.
"Hard rules" optional.
The card game 21 points is distinguished by the presence of strict rules in this game. For example.
- If for some reason the player does not talk about the bust and hides it, then as a punishment he must deposit a double amount into the bank.
- There is another option that if a player scores 21 and forgets to announce it, before the banker began to collect cards for himself, then he also pays a fine. Usually this is the money for which he went. So, friends, even with 21 points you can lose. But this is a strict rule and it is discussed in advance.
- There is another nuance. This is when the first card comes any six. In this case, at the request of the player, of course, he can play dark. That is, this six is considered to be an Ace, but they give him just one more card face-up. And he can watch it only when the banker has collected the cards for himself. When the banker has drawn his cards, the "dark" card of the player is revealed and the points are compared.
Knock
The game continues until the "Knock" comes. A knock is a situation when there is three times more money in the bank than the banker put.
That is, if the banker opened the game by placing 100 rubles, then for knocking it is necessary that there be at least 300 rubles. As you understand, the card game of 21 points continues just before the knock.
The knock is also the final round of the game. All players also take turns trying to win the pot. They go for different amounts, you can of course go for the whole bank, saying “All-in!”
When all players have played and the last player is left to play with the banker, the other players can look at the cards of this last player and also bet any amount on his cards.
If they lose, they add that amount to the pot. If they win, they take it. When the "Knock" is over, the banker takes the money left in the bank, and passes the cards to the player sitting to his left.
This player is now a banker! Here is the second advantage of playing as a banker - you will not lose less than you originally put in the bank!
The most common method of cheating in 21
Personally, when playing twenty-one, I basically looked at the bottom card and decided when I should pull it out.
