HOLE CARD

BLACKJACK TERMS DICTIONARY

 

 
   

HOLE CARD

In a game of cards, the term "hole card" means a card that is face down and invisible to the other players.  In blackjack the hole card is usually considered to be the second card of the dealer.  The dealer receives two cards on the opening deal just as each player does.  In the case of the dealer, one card is dealt face up and is visible and the other card is dealt down and become the hole card.  In this manner the players at the table have a clue as to the health of the dealer's hand since they can plainly see one of the two cards.  However, since they cannot see the other card, they have no way of being certain just how good the dealer hand is.
