The hard numbers of the game, for the record.
How to play
- Set your bet (Bet per hand when you play more than one hand) and press Deal.
- Number cards count their face value, J, Q and K count 10, an Ace counts 11 or 1, whichever helps the hand.
- Hit to take a card, Stand to keep your total, Double to double your bet and take exactly one more card, or Split a pair into two hands.
- Go over 21 and the hand busts. The dealer then plays out and every hand is settled.
Table rules
- Six-deck shoe, reshuffled once about three quarters of it has been dealt.
- Dealer stands on all 17s, soft 17 included.
- Double on any first two cards, including after a split.
- Split two cards of the same rank once per hand. Split Aces get one card each.
- Blackjack pays 3 to 2, a win pays 1 to 1, a push returns your bet.
Multiple hands and Turbo
Choose 1, 2 or 3 hands before the deal. Each hand is its own bet at the same amount, all played against one dealer hand. Turbo shortens the dealing animations.
