Blackjack, also known as 21 seems very complicated to me since it has multiple players.
I played once upon a time. It's more straightforward than you might think....really it's about you and the dealer. You *want* the other players to know what they're doing, but you don't need to interact!
Oh I was intimidated because I know it can be played with one or more decks.
THAT is true! I forget how many decks "the shoe" has -- that's what the dealer is dealing cards from -- so it does add a level of chance. That's why "card counting" is a technique players try to use.
I know that players are allowed to draw cards to kind of play better but I still find it a bit confusing.
The players can *ask* for another card to better their hand -- but of course, you're making your own best judgement and following your gut on whether or not you might "bust" -- or break 21.
I think I would rather just play a game of Flaps, which the objective of the game is to discard all of your cards.
I've never heard of it and will officially have to look it up! Is that a regional card game?
Well the cards are written in English and in Czech so I would kinda say so!
