If your point is not 18, it's 8. If your card is 3 and 4, then your score is 7, then if 9 and 7 add up, then your score is 16, but actually your score is 6. that's it that's the whole game.The only complexity is When each side uses a third card A simple chart is used to show when the Player's hand or the Banker's hand receives a third card. This does not occur when the player or the banker has an 8 or 9 after the first two cards are dealt.

6: The dealer draws a third card. If the Player's third card is 6 or 7

7: The dealer stays.
