Blackjack card games appeared in France in the 17-th century. There this game was called “vingt-et-un” (or “twenty-one” from French). Originally the rules of blackjack card games were to draw a jack of spades and than an ace of spades. And this was the only way for a player to win. That’s why this game is called “blackjack” now. Then after the French revolution, the settlers have imported this game to the United States. And here blackjack card games have become really popular.

Not only one deck is used in casinos to play blackjack card games. Of course, it would be very comfortable for player to use only one deck, because it would be very easy to count cards. And the more decks are used, the more there is advantage for a casino (the advantage for casino is about 0.70 per cent when 8 decks are used and only 0.04 per cent when there is only a single deck). Commonly, eight decks are used in casino in blackjack card games.
