In Blackjack Surrender, the game follows the usual rules of blackjack with one key difference: players can choose to "surrender" their hand after the initial deal. This option allows players to forfeit their hand and lose only half of their bet, rather than the full amount. Surrender can be done before any actions (like hitting or standing) are taken, and it’s typically used when the player's hand is weak. There are two types of surrender: early surrender, which allows players to give up before the dealer checks for blackjack, and late surrender, which can only be used after the dealer checks and doesn’t have blackjack. Surrender is a strategic option for minimizing losses in tough situations.
