How do you play Speed ​​Blackjack Pro?

1. Select your bet size using the buttons in the “Bet amount” field. Bets are represented as chips.
2. Place a chip in the betting area. You may place up to 3 separate bets, which can be of the same or different denominations. Additionally, for each main bet, you can add bonus bets: “21+3” and/or “Perfect Pair.”
3. Click the “Deal” button.
4. The deal begins, and you receive your cards. Each bet corresponds to one pair of cards (a hand).
5. For each hand you receive, the following actions are available:
   • Hit – you take another card. You may continue to take as many additional cards as you wish, until your point total reaches 21 or exceeds it (resulting in a “bust”).
   • Stand – you decline to take any further cards. If you have multiple hands, you move on to the next one. If you have only one hand, or if it is your final hand, your turn ends and play passes to the dealer.
   • Double Down – you double your original bet and receive exactly one additional card. Once this card is dealt, your turn ends automatically, regardless of the outcome (meaning you cannot choose to “Hit” again).
   • Split – this option is available if you are dealt two cards of the same rank. You may split them into two separate hands, placing an additional bet on the second hand equal to your original wager. If you are dealt another pair after splitting, you cannot split again.
   • Each of the resulting hands is played independently. For each hand, you may choose to Hit, Stand, or Double Down. However, if you split a pair of Aces, you will receive only one additional card for each hand. If that card has a value of 10, the total will be 21, but this is not considered a “blackjack.”

To better navigate your available options, you can use the hints feature by clicking the button with the lightbulb icon. When activated, the system will suggest the most appropriate move for your current hand. Please note that hints are only available for two-card hands and do not provide recommendations regarding increasing your bet. They are limited to actions such as “Hit,” “Stand,” or “Split” – the option to “Double Down” is not taken into account.

Once you have finished taking cards for all your hands, the dealer reveals their cards. If the total value of your hand is higher than the dealer’s and does not exceed 21, you win. If your total is lower than the dealer’s, you lose. If you and the dealer have the same total (without exceeding 21), it is a tie (a “push”).

Game Rules

Cards

Eight decks are used, each containing 52 cards. Before every round, the cards are shuffled randomly. Each card has its own value:

• Number cards (from 2 to 10) – their value corresponds to the number shown on them. For example, a 7 is worth 7 points, a 10 is worth 10 points, and so on.
• Face cards (Jack, Queen, King) – each of these cards is worth 10 points.
• Ace – can be worth either 1 or 11 points, depending on which value is more advantageous for your hand. For instance, if you have an Ace and a 7, your total is 18. If you then draw another card – a 5 – your total reaches 23. To avoid “busting” (losing), the Ace is counted as 1 point instead of 11, bringing the total to 13.
• The suit of a card has no effect on the gameplay.

Hands

At the start of a hand, you are dealt two face-up cards, while the dealer receives one face-up card and one face-down card. You may play on multiple betting positions (up to 3) simultaneously, whereas the dealer has only one position. Each of your positions plays independently against the dealer’s cards. If the dealer draws an Ace, it counts as 11 points, unless doing so would result in a bust (a total exceeding 21) – in which case, the Ace counts as 1 point. The dealer continues to draw cards until their total reaches 17 or more.

Soft 17

A “soft” 17 is a hand containing an Ace that counts as 11 points, bringing the total value to 17 (for example, an Ace + 6, or an Ace + 3 + 3). If the dealer has a “soft” 17, they are required to draw another card.

Check Blackjack

If the dealer’s face-up card is an Ace, the dealer checks their face-down card to see if the total is 21 (an Ace combined with a 10-value card constitutes a blackjack). If the dealer has a blackjack, the round ends immediately, and all your bets are lost.
If you also have a blackjack, it is a “push” (a tie), and your bet on that hand is returned to you.

Insurance

Insurance is available if the dealer’s first card is an Ace, as the dealer might have a “blackjack” (a total of 21 points from two cards).
The cost of insurance is 50% of your original bet.
To insure individual hands, click the button with the shield icon next to each one. To insure all hands, select “ACCEPT” in the insurance pop-up window.
To decline insurance, select “SKIP.” If the dealer has a “blackjack,” the insurance payout is 2 to 1 (x2), which covers the loss of your original bet. If both you and the dealer have a “blackjack,” you receive the insurance payout and your original bet is returned. If the dealer does not have a “blackjack,” you lose the insurance amount, and the round continues with your original bet.

21+3 bonus bet

For each main bet, you can place an additional “21+3” bonus bet. You win if your two cards and the dealer’s face-up card form one of the following combinations:

Flush – three cards of the same suit (e.g., 5♥, 7♥, 10♥).
Straight – three cards in sequential rank, but of different suits (e.g., 5♤, 6♧, 7♢).
Three of a Kind – three cards of the same rank, but of different suits (e.g., 7♤, 7♧, 7♢).
Straight Flush – three cards in sequential rank and of the same suit (e.g., 7♥, 8♥, 9♥).
Suited Trips – three cards of the same rank and the same suit (e.g., 7♤, 7♤, 7♤).

Perfect Pair bonus bet

For each main bet, you can place an additional “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., a 7♤ and a 7♢).
Colored Pair – two cards of the same rank and color but different suits (e.g., a 7♤ and a 7♧).
Perfect Pair – two cards of the same rank, suit, and color (e.g., two 7♤).

Results

Possible game outcomes:

Win – If the total value of your cards is higher than the dealer’s and does not exceed 21, you win.
Loss – If the total value of your cards is lower than the dealer’s, you lose. If the total value of your cards exceeds 21, you lose automatically, regardless of the dealer’s cards.
Push (Tie) – If you and the dealer have the same card total (and it does not exceed 21), it is a push, and your bet is returned to you.
Blackjack – If your first two cards are an Ace and a 10-value card (a 10, Jack, Queen, or King), you have “blackjack” and receive a payout of 1.5 times your bet. If the dealer also has “blackjack,” it is a push, and your bet is returned to you.
