Blackjack History<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Blackjack, or 21 as it\u2019s known in many parts of the world, originated sometime in the XVIII century. It was first introduced in French casinos, becoming a popular card game for the elite. Compared to that version, blackjack online<\/a> is vastly different. It\u2019s still one of the most popular games you can play in online casinos, and together with poker and roulette, it\u2019s the most popular casino trio.<\/p>\n

At the time when it was first introduced, it was known as Vingt-en-un. That\u2019s French for 21 which shows the goal of the game and doubles as its name. Many Historians believe that the game originate much earlier than the XVIII century, as it was mentioned in Miguel Cervantes\u2019 Don Quixote novel. Regardless, it became popular in casinos after that, and decade by decade, it became the biggest gambling card game.<\/p>\n

Later in the XVIII century, casinos started offering side bets on blackjack. Called special bets, their goal was to draw an even bigger crowd with payouts up to 10:1. At that time, blackjack was enjoyed by French aristocracy and the elite. It was the favorite card game of King Louis XV and famed military leader Napoleon Bonaparte.<\/p>\n

French colonists brought the game to New Orleans some time later. The first legalized banked game took place in the city where the French had a strong presence. Blackjack got its biggest break after the legalization of gambling in Nevada in 1931, where it found a home and a base for further popularity.<\/p>\n

Further Massive Growth<\/strong><\/h2>\n

It didn\u2019t take long for blackjack to become the top card game in Nevada casinos. The rest of the world caught up too. Blackjack was game #1 for card players, and enjoyed its biggest popularity surge in the 1970s and 1980s when the famous card counting team made millions in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n

Looking further ahead, blackjack\u2019s popularity went off the rails when the game came online. Now available for free practice and real money in NetBet casino, the online gaming space gave it a new lease of life. Today, blackjack comes in different variants that you can play against a computer or live dealers.<\/p>\n
