Blackjack players may hit as many times as they wish either until they go 'bust' or they decide to stand. 2.Staying – To stand in the game of blackjack is to stay with the cards that have been dealt. A player stands when satisfied with the cards in hand and when preferring not to request further cards. ©2004 Pearson Education, Inc.

In such a situation, there is no possibility of going bust and the receipt of a high card upon the hit would create a high hand. ©2004 Pearson Education, Inc.
