Hard Totals
A hand that contains an Ace, but which has to be counted as a 1. For example if a player has an Ace and a 5, if he hits for another card and the third card received is a 9, the Ace will have to be counted as 1 for the total to be under 21, so his hand will be a hard 15 (Ace, 5, 9).

Splitting Pairs
This can only be done when the first two cards dealt are of the same value. Depending on the total, you may want to split the two cards and play each hand individually. If you choose to do so, you must place a bet equal to your original on the table. If you get a matching pair of cards, you have the option to hit, stand, double down, or to split. Surrendering is also an option if available, but not advised.
