An Ace with any 10, Jack, Queen, or King is a Blackjack. If you have a Blackjack, the dealer pays you one-and-a-half times your bet unless the dealer also has a Blackjack, in which case it's a push and neither wins.
The Casino de Monte-Carlo has inspired a number of books and films, including the first James Bond novel, Casino Royale (1953), and the Bond movies Never Say Never Again (1983) and GoldenEye (1995) were filmed at the casino.
