A blackjack dealer is an individual who works in a casino and deals the cards for blackjack. Blackjack is a table game where players aim to get as close to 21 as possible without going over. The objective for the players is to have a higher number than the dealer and/or go over 21, in order for the players to win their hands.
Generally, blackjack is played in places where the game is legal. This occurs across the United States in Atlantic City, New Jersey, Las Vegas Nevada, and on Indian reservations. Some casinos are also on riverboats abroad. Other countries also have various rules about the legality of gambling; in Monte Carlo, for example, gambling is legal, as well as in some parts of Canada and in certain clubs and areas in England. Many cruise ships and Caribbean islands also offer blackjack play.
A blackjack dealer can work in any of those environments where the game is legal and where people play table games. A dealer generally must be licensed or authorized to deal in blackjack. This is usually done by a gaming commission or other related body or by the casino that hires you. Certification usually requires a background check in which the dealer is fingerprinted and it is determined whether the dealer has any criminal convictions that would prevent him from being trusted as a blackjack dealer.
Once hired, the reseller has several primary roles. First, he must exchange money for customers. This involves being able to quickly count money and exchange it for chips used in betting. It may also be necessary for the dealer to know how to identify counterfeit money so that he can identify these bills if the individual attempts to exchange them for tokens.
The dealer also shuffles the cards or places them in an automatic shuffler. Many casinos have dealers using six decks combined to deal blackjack hands. Dealer must ensure all decks are properly scrambled.
He must then deal cards to the players at the table. This involves placing two cards in front of each player and taking two cards, one face up and one face down. Players then have the option of hitting, which means taking another card, or standing, which means refraining from taking another card and keeping their score as it is. The blackjack dealer then takes the cards himself or stands according to specific predefined rules, depending on the numerical value his cards add up to. Finally, the blackjack dealer pays out the people who won the hand.
