Spanish Blackjack uses 8 decks of 48 cards - there are no 10s in Spanish
Blackjack. The cards will be shuffled before each hand begins. In Spanish
Blackjack the dealer is forced to hit on a soft 17, and blackjack beats
any hand that adds up to 21. A player's 21 also always beats the dealer's 21.

You can play using the Expert Mode (which has an auto play feature). A strategy
card is also available for you to customize). The game software applies whatever
strategy you choose when in auto play mode. Each hand is logged and players
can review their statistics in real time.

a 10 value card, this does not not give you a Blackjack, only a standard 21.
