The Under/Over Thirteen bet in blackjack is a secondary bet, you do not have to place a bet on Under/Over Thirteen to play at the blackjack table that offers this secondary bet. This bet is betting on whether your next hand of blackjack will be higher or lower than thirteen, with your initial first two cards. A lot of blackjack players chose not to place this secondary bet, claiming that it is a sucker's bet, while other blackjack players will place a bet on Under/Over Thirteen on every hand that they play of blackjack and will only play on blackjack tables that have Under/Over Thirteen offered as a secondary bet.
