Overview: What does it mean to "Bust" at the Blackjack tables? When you or the dealer goes bust it means that the value of the hand went over twenty-one. When you bust you lose, when the dealer busts you will win (assuming that you haven't busted or surrendered before the dealer played its hand).
You have 23, you bust! If you bust you will lose your wager, if the dealer busts you will win if you hand is still alive. If you and the dealer both bust it is not a push, you lose no matter what if you bust.
