Casino
Blackjack's origins trace back to 17th century French casinos, where it was known as "Vingt-et-Un" (Twenty-One). The game crossed the Atlantic with French colonists and gained immense popularity in American gambling halls.
The name "Blackjack" comes from an early American bonus: casinos paid 10-to-1 if you held the ace of spades with a black jack (clubs or spades). While that specific bonus disappeared, the name stuck.
Atlantic City became a major blackjack destination when New Jersey legalized casino gambling in 1976. The "Atlantic City rules" - player-friendly options like late surrender and doubling on any two cards - became the gold standard for blackjack play.
