Blackjack, also called Twenty-one, is a game of chance in which the player must beat the dealer’s hand without exceeding 21 points.

In order to use the Blackjack Strategy Card you simply determine where your hand (the left column of the card) intersects with the card the dealer is showing (the top row of the card) and the code there will tell you to Stay, Hit, Double Down, or Split your hand.

Who Should Offer a Blackjack Strategy Card?

Whether a travel company, restaurant, retail store, taxi or limousine service, or even the local chamber of commerce, a Blackjack Strategy Card is a great way to get your company’s message out if you’re near a casino that offers blackjack. The usefulness and durability of the card will keep your name in your customer’s mind for years.

The customers purchasing the discount cards win by supporting the kids while receiving valuable discounts at local businesses. The local business owners win by increasing their customer base.
