If the player assumes so, can protect themselves by buying insurance, which costs 50% of the stake in the original bet. If, in fact, the dealer has a Blackjack, the insurance pays the player double the premium, that is exactly the amount bet.
If the dealer did not have a Blackjack, the player loses the insurance, but keeps the stakes at play, which continues regularly. The insurance is considered a game in itself in Blackjack but offers the player the possibility of protection against the blackjack dealer.
