A "blackjack" is the most powerful hand you can get in blackjack, and it's often referred to as a "natural 21." This hand consists of an Ace and any 10-point card (10, Jack, Queen, or King). When you're dealt a blackjack, you instantly win the round unless the dealer also has a blackjack, in which case the round is a push, and your wager is returned.

The allure of a blackjack lies in its unbeatable nature. It offers a payout of 3:2, meaning you receive 1.5 times your bet on top of your initial wager. For instance, if you bet $10 and get a blackjack, you'll receive $15 in winnings.

Blackjacks are relatively rare but are often seen as the pinnacle of success in the game. They emphasize the element of luck in blackjack, as you need specific cards to be dealt to you right from the start.
 
In blackjack, each card is assigned a specific point value. The cards 2 through 10 are worth their face value, while the jack, queen, and king are each worth 10 points. The ace is unique in that it can be valued at either 1 or 11 points, depending on what is most beneficial to the player.
