Do you like playing Blackjack? If so, you're not alone, as Blackjack is considered one of the most-played card games in the world, and an estimated 30 million people enjoy playing digitally.

The number of people playing Blackjack in land-based casinos, at home, and with friends is currently unknown. Still, considering it has its origins in the 1700s, there are likely many more millions of people playing Blackjack in person on a more regular basis.

But what is better, playing Blackjack in person or online? There are pros and cons to both styles of gameplay, and in many places, it comes down to access, availability, and personal preference. Some people prefer the ease of playing online card games, while others appreciate the camaraderie playing in person can offer them.

There is no one better way to play for a person, and many different factors will influence a person's preference as to how they play. This means there is no one right or wrong way to indulge in this game of luck and numbers, but before we address the pros and cons of playing Blackjack in person or online, let's look at why the game itself is popular and what it takes to be an exceptionally skilled blackjack player.
