Black Jack Betting Rules are clear and simple.  The first thing to happen when you start playing is that you have to place your bet.  minimum bet is £1 and maximum is £1500.   You choose a chip by left clicking on one of the coloured chips below your hand.  Once a bet is placed  you and the dealer are dealt two cards each.  Your cards are always face up but the dealer has one card facing up and one facing down.  You always go first unless its a multi player game, then the dealer.  The aim is to get as close to 21 than the dealer, without going over 21.  All number cards are worth face value but face cards like a king are worth 10 and aces are worth 1 or 11.  If the value of your cards are closer to 21 than the dealers then you win or vice versa if the dealer wins.  If the amount on your cards is the same as the dealers then this is called a push and you get the money back that you betted with only.   

If your two cards delt are the same then if you want you can split them and play two hands, your bet is automatically duplicated  to the second hand.  This can only be done once during a game.  When playing a pointing finger will appear over the hand thats to be played first.  Once you click stand on one hand the finger will move to the other hand.  You can hit as many times on these hands if the split cards are anything but an ace.  If they are aces then you only allowed one card per hand.
