Deal me in and double down!
You’re sitting at a Blackjack table in Vegas.
Showing no emotion, you peek at your two
cards. They add up to 16. Taking a deep breath,
you tap the table in front of you. The dealer
slides a card from the top of the deck and deals
it to you. You turn over the card and see it’s a
five of diamonds. You have 21!
Now you can take the excitement of Las Vegas
Blackjack anywhere you go with Hit Me 21!
You’ll be swinging just like the high rollers as you
coolly tap to Hit or calmly wave your hand to
Stand over the felt! Just don’t bust and
whenever possible, split and doubledown!
Good luck!

AUTO BACK LIGHT - Big Screen Blackjack is

conditions become dim, your screen will
automatically illuminate!
If you set the game down,
the game goes to sleep, and the light will also
automatically turn off.
HOW TO PLAY
The object of the game is to be dealt cards that
add up to be higher than the dealer’s cards
without going over 21. All cards equal their own
number except for face cards (Jacks, Queens,
and Kings), which each represent 10. Aces can
be either 1 or 11.
To begin, press the ON / DEAL / HIT button to
turn the game ON or wake it from Sleep Mode.
Next, place your bet by pressing the BET / RIDE
button. Press it again to increase your bet.
Press the ON / DEAL / HIT button or do a HIT
MOTION to have the dealer DEAL the cards.
Once you’ve been dealt two cards you can
choose to HIT, STAND, or SURRENDER. Do a
HIT MOTION to be dealt another card. If you
don’t want another card, do a STAND MOTION.
If you wish to give up and only lose half your
bet, press the SURRENDER button.
NOTE: If you want you can use the ON/DEAL/HIT
or STAND button during the game.
If the dealer’s hand is 16 or less, the dealer will
automatically draw additional cards. The dealer
will automatically STAND on 17 or higher.
HINT: It is often thought that a player should
always STAND on 17 or higher and HIT on 16
and below. This is merely a gambler’s rule of
thumb and doesn’t always win.
If you draw enough cards that are closer to 21
than the dealer’s hand, you win!
Notes: Bright or close lighting such as halogen
lights near to the product may delay game play.
