Ban Luck is a Singaporean twist on the game of Blackjack and is also known as 21-point 1, ban-luck (Hokkien), ban-nag (Cantonese), and xì dách (Vietnamese). It is a popular gambling game played in Southeast Asia and is often played during Chinese New Year celebrations. The game is played with 2 cards facing down, and players must have a point value of at least 16 to start playing. The aim of the game is to have a hand that totals 21 points or as close to 21 points as possible without exceeding it. In Ban Luck, the Ace can be worth either 1 or 11 points, while face cards are worth 10 points, and other cards are worth their respective face values.
