If both a player and a dealer have blackjack, it typically results in a push, meaning the player neither wins nor loses the bet. In most casinos, the player's wager is returned, and the game continues without any payout. However, specific rules may vary by casino, so it’s essential to check the house rules for any variations in this scenario.

That's correct! When both the player and the dealer have blackjack, it's called a "push," and the player's bet is returned without any winnings or losses. This outcome maintains the inherent advantage the casino has in blackjack, as players do not receive a payout for a tie. It's always a good idea for players to be aware of the specific rules and variations that a casino may have regarding this situation, as rules can vary between different establishments. It's also worth noting that some casinos may have special rules in place for instances where both the player and the dealer have blackjack, so it's wise for players to familiarize themselves with the specific rules of the casino they are playing at.
