Blackjack Insurance
So what is insurance in Blackjack? And should you take it?
If the dealer's facing up card is an Ace, you are offered the choice of taking out Blackjack Insurance before the dealer deals his 'hole card'.
You will need to place a bet equal to half your original bet. You´ll probably see written on table somewhere: "Insurance Pays 2:1".
What this means is that you are betting that the dealer will get a blackjack, and if this happens the bet pays off 2:1.
You effectively get your money back if the dealer gets a blackjack.
