Play Blackjack at Absolute Poker

The most popular casino game in the world, Blackjack combines skill and strategy with random chance, making it a favorite among poker players looking for a break from their usual game.  History indicates that Blackjack was invented in Spain, where Cervantes gave the first written reference to an early version of the game in the story "Rinconete y Cortadillo."

Where’d the name come from?  Well, after it came to the United States, casinos and gambling houses offered bonus payouts to entice players to their tables. That’s where the name Blackjack came from: players received a 10-to-1 payout if their hand consisted of the Ace of Spades and a black Jack. While this bonus to players is no longer part of the game, the name stuck.
