BlackjackX 9 - Ruby

This game follows the classic rules of Blackjack with some additional features and specific betting options. The objective is to form a hand with a total value closer to 21 than the dealer's hand without exceeding 21.

Players receive two cards face up, while the dealer receives one card face up and one face down. Number cards are worth their numerical value, face cards are worth 10 points each, and Aces are worth either 1 or 11 points depending on which value benefits the hand more. Players can "hit" to receive an additional card, "stand" to keep their current hand, "double down" by doubling their initial bet for one more card, and "split" pairs to play two separate hands with an additional bet equal to the original bet. The dealer must draw cards until reaching 17 or higher. A Blackjack (Ace + 10) pays 3:2.

Side bets include "Perfect Pairs" to bet on a pair in the first two cards and "21+3" to bet on forming a poker hand with the player's and dealer's cards. Betting limits vary depending on the table.
