Blackjack is one of if not the most classical games inside casinos across the world. People have continuously been drawn to play casino blackjack due to its possible high profits and excitement. The game not only involves the luck of drawing cards, but a sharp statistical mind that can make quick precise decisions. Blackjack is also a great game for beginners to learn card values and table etiquette. The rules of play casino blackjack are fairly simple, it is the strategy that complicates certain situations. The main objective in blackjack is to have a hand value closest to 21 without going over. Every card between 2-10 is valued exactly as the numerical value, therefore, a 7 has a value of 7. All facecards are valued at 10, and aces can be valued at 1 or 11 depending on which value will suit the player’s hand better.

There are two types of play casino blackjack, the shoe game and the hand held game. Game rules are basically the same, except that in a shoe game, players are not allowed to touch their cards, and the cards are dealt face up. In hand held games, players are allowed to pick up their cards, and cards are dealt face down. Shoe games also use a special card box used to shuffle and dispense the cards.

In casinos, a blackjack table seats six players. Shoe games are usually played in casinos, and six or eight decks are used and shuffled by the dealer, to be placed in the ’shoe’. Before the cards are given, players will place a wager. Dealer gives gets one card facing up, the other facing down. The player will then choose either to stay, or to ask for another card and try to bring the points as close to 21. Card players would not have to wait for the dealer’s turn. When all players are done, dealer flips over the down card. By ruling, points 16 below the dealer must draw, while points 17 up the dealer must stay. If a House tie takes place, it is a push and no one wins.

If the player gets a total of 21 points with his first two 2 cards, the player wins automatically. This is called Blackjack, wherein he gets an Ace and a 10 or face. If the players have acquired higher count than the dealer’s, they get the equal amount they wagered on. Players with lower count lose. If the dealer busts, the remaining players win the bet.

Badan Tim Nasional (BTN) masih menunggu kesediaan pemain keturunan Indonesia-Belanda, Sergio Van Dijk, untuk bergabung dengan pelatnas Timnas Indonesia dan menjadi Warga Negara Indonesia (WNI).

Menurut Direktur BTN, Iman Arief, jika ingin bergabung, Sergio diberi batas waktu paling lambat bulan November. Saat ini, ia memang tengah berdiskusi dengan keluarganya terkait rencananya menjadi WNI.

PSSI dan BTN pun telah melakukan pendekatan kepada keluarga Sergio yang berada di Indonesia yakni kepada pamannya yang tinggal di Jakarta bernama Frans Polnaya.

"Kami sudah memberikan surat pengajuan menjadi WNI kepada Sergio. Hal ini juga kami lakukan untuk pemain lain yaitu Kim Jeffry Kurniawan,'' kata Iman, Rabu (25/8) malam.

Berbeda dengan Sergio, Kim sudah setuju untuk menjadi WNI. Pengurusan berkas pemain inipun diperkirakan memakan waktu singkat.

"Jika Sergio sudah memilih WNI, ia akan kehilangan banyak hal yang selama ini ia dapat selama menjadi warga negara Belanda, misalnya asuransi. Kami masih menunggu keputusannya," ujar Iman lagi.

Iman mengakui memang menemui hambatan dalam memuluskan rencana menggunakan pemain berdarah Indonesia untuk dimasukkan ke dalam timnas. Dari aturan FIFA, hal itu tidak menjadi masalah, namun dalam aturan kewarganegaraan Indonesia, terjadi benturan.

Selain dua pemain tersebut, BTN juga menghubungi pemain berusia 18 tahun yang bermain di Liga Qatar yang bernama Syaffarizal Mursalin.

"Kami baru sekadar mengontak Fari, namun belum melakukan pembicaraan apapun. Fari itu asli WNI berdarah Aceh, namun sejak kecil menetap di Qatar karena orangtuanya bekerja di sana,'' singkat Iman.

BTN akan melakukan pola serupa untuk timnas U-23 yang akan tampil di SEA Games 2011 dengan mendata pemain keturunan Indonesia di luar negeri.

Metrotvnews.com, Jakarta: Panasonic Corporation menjajaki mengembangkan industri panel surya di Indonesia. Sebab saat ini, perusahaan tersebut sedang mengembangkan teknologi ramah lingkungan dengan penggunaan emisi karbon hingga nol persen.

Hal itu terungkap dalam pertemuan President Panasonic Corporation Fumio Ohtsubo dengan Wakil Presiden Boediono di Istana Wakil Presiden Jakarta, Rabu (25/8). Turut hadir dalam pertemuan tersebut Chairman PT Panasonic Gobel Indonesia Rahmat Gobel, dan Ketua Yayasan Panasonic Jusman Syafii Djamal.

Juru Bicara Wapres Boediono Yopie Hidayat mengatakan Panasonic ingin kembangkan industri panel surya karena arahnya mereka ingin buat teknologi ramah lingkungan.
"Mereka ingin rumah beroperasi penuh tapi emisi karbon nol. Pilot project-nya saat ini di Jepang. Tetapi mereka tertarik ingin kembangkan di Indonesia," kata Yopie.

Ia menyatakan, Wapres Boediono mendorong Panasonic tidak hanya menjadikan Indonesia sebagai pasar produk-produknya, tetapi juga menjadi pusat produksi. Untuk itu, Wapres mendukung rencana Panasonoc mengambangkan industri panel surya di Indonesia.

"Sebab Indonesia juga memiliki komitmen di masa depan untuk mengurangi emisi karbon (CO2) 26 persen pada 2025," kata Yopie mengutip Wapres.

Selain itu, kata Yopie, Wapres juga menyampaikan bahwa jika industri panel surya bisa berkembang di Indonesia, banyak masalah di Indonesia yang akan terselesaikan.
"Misalnya untuk pembangkit listrik di daerah terpencil. Jika ada teknologi murah seperti tenaga surya, tentu Indonesia yang sepanjang tahun ada matahari akan banyak menggunakannya," tuturnya.

Menurut Yopie, kekuatan teknologi panel surya adalah ini bagaimana menyimpan energi di baterainya agar tidak banyak energi yang hilang. Oleh karena itu, Panasonic baru saja mengakuisisi Sanyo untuk pengambangan teknologi baterai yang lebih baik.

Chairman Panasonic Gobel Indonesia Rahmat Gobel mengatakan bahwa Panasonic sudah ingin memindahkan beberapa pabriknya ke Indonesia. Pabrik-pabrik yang akan dipindahkan itu antara lain pabrik alat-alat elektronik, alat-alat rumah, dan memperbesar pabri baterai lithiumnya.

"Menurut Rahmat Gobel sebenarnya sudah ingin memindahkan beberapa pabrik ke Indonesia. Mereka sangat puas dengan kondisi ekonomi di Indonesia. Ditambah lagi produk-produk ekspor mereka dari sini memiliki daya saing tinggi," katanya.

Namun saat ditanya lebih jauh pabrik apa saja yang akan dipindahkan ke Indonesia, Yopie menyatakan Panasonic belum mau membukanya lebih detil karena takut mengundang respon kurang baik dari negara-negara yang menjadi pabriknya saat ini.

Di Indonesia sendiri, saat ini Panasonic menempatkan Indonesia sebagai pusat industri lampu LED yang hemat listrik.

Yopie menambahkan bahwa kedatangan President Panasonic Corporation ke Indonesia adalah untuk memperingati 50 tahun kerjasama teknis Mashusita Electronic asal Jepang dan H Thayeb Mohammad Gobel Gobel di Indonesia. Kalau kita runut 50 tahun lalu, kata Yopie, Indonesia belum punya UU tentang Penanaman Modal Asing (PMA) tapi saat itu Indonesia mengadakan Asian Games.  (MI/ICH)
