Site Blackjack Rules Internet - Basic Exposition Internetcasinogamblingonline
The dealer starts each hand of blackjack by dealing two cards to each player and to himself. Of the dealer's first two cards, one of them is always dealt face up (so the players can see it) and the other one face down. The players' cards are either dealt all face up or all face down. It doesn't really matter if the players can see each other's cards, because they are only playing against the dealer's hand.
