How to Play

1. Select the bet amount using the buttons in the “Bet Amount” field. Bets are represented as chips.
2. Place a chip on the betting field. You can make up to 5 separate bets of the same or different denominations. In addition to each main bet, you can make bonus bets: 21+3 or/and Perfect Pair.
3. Click the “Play” button.
4. You enter the deal round and receive your cards. One bet is one pair of cards (hand).
5. With each deal, you can choose the following options:

• Hit – You take another card. You can take as many additional cards as you like until you reach 21 or bust, i.e., go over.
• Stand – You do not take an additional card. If you have more than one hand, you move on to the next. If you are playing one hand or this is your last hand, the turn passes to the dealer.
• Double Down – You double your bet and take an additional card. After receiving a card, your turn ends automatically, regardless of the outcome (i.e., you cannot Hit).
• Split – This option is available when you receive two identical cards. When you split, you divide the two cards into two hands and place an additional bet equal to your original bet on the second hand. If after a split you receive another identical pair of cards, you cannot split it again.
  Each split hand is played separately. You can choose to Hit, Stand, or Double Down for each hand. However, if the split cards are aces, only one new card is dealt per hand. If the new card is worth 10 points, the total points are 21, not blackjack.

To help you navigate these options more effectively, you can turn on the hints by clicking the light bulb button. When activated, they will show you the best choice for your current hand. However, hints are only available for two-card hands and do not provide advice on increasing your bets. They are limited to action suggestions such as Hit, Stand, or Split, with the exception of Double Down.

After you have finished drawing cards for all available hands, the dealer will reveal their cards. If your hand is worth more than the dealer’s and does not exceed 21, you win. If your hand is worth less than the dealer’s, you lose. If both your hand and the dealer’s hand are worth the same and do not exceed 21, it is a tie (push).

Features

Cards. There are 8 decks of 52 cards each. The cards are shuffled randomly before each round. Each card has a value:

• Number cards (2 to 10) – these cards are worth their face value. For example, 7 is worth 7 points, 10 is worth 10 points, etc.
• Face cards (Jack, Queen, King) – all face cards are worth 10 points each.
• Ace – can be worth 1 point or 11 points, depending on which value is most beneficial to your hand. For example, if your cards are an Ace and a 7, your hand is worth 18. However, if you draw a 5, your hand becomes 23. To prevent busting, the Ace in this case counts as 1 instead of 11, making the total 13.
• The suit of the card does not affect the game.

Hands. When you are dealt a hand, you receive two cards face up, while the dealer receives one card face up and one card face down. You can have up to 5 hands, while the dealer only has one. Each of your hands competes separately with the dealer’s hand. If the dealer has an Ace, it counts as 11 unless it causes a bust, in which case the Ace is worth 1. The dealer continues to draw cards until the total is 17 or higher.

Soft 17. Soft 17 refers to a hand that includes an Ace, which counts as 11, with the total value of the hand being 17 (e.g. Ace + 6 or Ace + 3 + 3). If the dealer has a soft 17, he draws another card.

Check for blackjack. If the dealer’s up card is an ace, he will check his down card to see if he has a total of 21 (an ace and a 10-point card, which is a blackjack). If the dealer has a blackjack, the round ends immediately and all your hands lose. If you also have a blackjack, it’s a tie and you get the bet you made on the blackjack hand back.

Insurance. Insurance is available when the dealer’s first card is an Ace, as he may have a blackjack (21 with two cards). The cost is 50% of your main bet. To insure specific hands, click the shield button next to each one. To insure all hands, select ACCEPT in the Insurance pop-up. To decline insurance, select ISSUE. If the dealer has a blackjack, insurance pays 2.1, which covers your loss on the main bet. If you and the dealer both have blackjacks, you get the insurance payout and your bet back. If the dealer does not have a blackjack, you lose the insurance bet, but the round continues with the original bet.

21+3 Bonus Bet. For each main bet, you can place a 21+3 Bonus Bet. You win if your two cards and the dealer’s up card form one of the following combinations:

• Flush – three cards of the same suit (e.g. 5♥, 7♥, 10♥).
• Straight – three cards of consecutive ranks but different suits (e.g. 5♠, 6♣, 7♦).
• Three cards of the same rank but different suits (e.g. 7♠, 7♣, 7♦).
• Straight Flush – three cards of consecutive ranks of the same suit (e.g. 7♥, 8♥, 9♥).
• Suited Trips – three cards of the same rank and suit (e.g. 7♠, 7♠,7♠).

Perfect Pair Bonus Bet. For every main bet, you can place a Perfect Pair bonus bet. You win if your first two cards form one of the following pairs:

• Mixed Pair – two cards of the same rank, but different suits and colors (e.g. 7♠ and 7♦)
• Colored Pair – two cards of the same rank and color, but different suits (e.g. 7♠ and 7♣)
• Perfect Pair – two cards of the same rank, suit, and color (e.g. two 7♠).

Results

Here are the possible outcomes of the game:

• Win – If your hand value is higher than the dealer’s and does not exceed 21, you win.
• Loss – If your hand value is lower than the dealer’s, you lose. If your hand value exceeds 21, you automatically lose, regardless of the dealer’s hand value.
• Tie/Push – If your hand and the dealer’s hand value are the same and do not exceed 21, it is a tie and your bet is returned to you.
• Blackjack – If your first two cards are an Ace and a 10-value card (10, Jack, Queen, or King), you have a blackjack and you receive a payout of x1.5x your bet. If the dealer also has a blackjack, it is a tie and your bet is returned to you.
