Can you surrender in blackjack after seeing the dealer's face-down card?

[MillionBoy]

In standard blackjack, the surrender option is typically offered to players as a way to forfeit their hand and recoup half of their original bet before the dealer checks their face-down card. Once the dealer reveals their hole card, surrender is usually no longer allowed. Surrendering after seeing the dealer's face-down card would undermine the house edge and alter the game's dynamics. Therefore, it's not a commonly asked question because the rules surrounding surrender are well-established.

No, in blackjack, you cannot surrender after seeing the dealer's face-down card. The option to surrender is only available before the dealer has checked for blackjack. If the dealer does have blackjack, the game is over and you cannot surrender.
