Double on any number of cards.
Split initial cards of equal value.
Only one Split per hand.
A single card is dealt to each Split Ace.
Double after Split is allowed.
Insurance is offered when the dealer shows an Ace.
Blackjack pays 3 to 2.
Insurance pays 2 to 1.
Push game when hands tie, except for score 21, when the player wins.
Extra payouts – Bonus 21 and Super Bonus 21.
Game rules
The game is hosted by a dealer and an unlimited number of players is allowed to play in each game round.
The game is played with eight standard 52-card decks, without the 10s. Card values in Blackjack are as follows:
Cards from 2 to 9 are worth their face value.
Face cards (Jacks, Queens and Kings) are each worth 10.
Aces are worth 1 or 11, whichever is more favorable to the hand. The soft hand includes an Ace worth 11.
After the allotted betting time has expired, the dealer deals one card face up to all players, ending with the dealer. The dealer then deals a second card face up to all the players, but the dealer’s second card is dealt face down. The value of your initial hand is displayed next to your cards.
Blackjack
If the value of your initial two-card hand is exactly 21, you have Blackjack!
Insurance
If the dealer’s upcard is an Ace, you can purchase insurance to offset the risk that the dealer has Blackjack — even when you have Blackjack yourself. The amount of insurance is equal to one half of your main bet, and the insurance bet is settled separately from the bet on your hand. The dealer then peeks at the value of their downcard to check for Blackjack. If the dealer does not have Blackjack, the round continues. If the dealer has Blackjack, but you do not, the game ends and the dealer’s hand wins.
If you and the dealer both have Blackjack, you win.
The dealer checks for Blackjack on J-Q-K.
If the dealer’s upcard is a face card, the dealer looks at the value of their downcard to check for Blackjack. If the dealer does not have Blackjack, the round continues. If the dealer has Blackjack, but you do not, the game ends and the dealer’s hand wins. If you and the dealer both have Blackjack, you win.
Cash Out
After the cards are dealt and if the dealer does not have Blackjack, you have a decision to make. One of the decisions presented to you is to cash out: if you decide to cash out, the game for that hand will end, and you will receive back the value shown to you in the Cash Out decision button. The Cash Out payout ratio changes based on your total score for the hand and the dealer face-up card. The Cash out rule applies only to your main bet. You can control the visibility of this option in your decision panel in Settings.
The Cash Out payout ratio will range between 0.41% to 4.43% of your main bet – depending on the total of the players hand vs. the total of the dealer’s hand - at the time of the Cash Out.
Double, Hit, or Stand
If the dealer does not have Blackjack upon checking their two initial cards, players are given a chance to improve the values of their hands in turn, by the dealer offering to deal further cards to players' hands. If the value of your initial hand is not 21, you can decide to Hit to be dealt an additional card to add to the value of your hand. You can Hit more than once to receive additional cards before you decide to Stand once you are satisfied with the value of your hand. However, you cannot Hit if your hard total is 17 or above unless you have the possibility to achieve a Bonus 21.
At any point, you can decide to Double. In this case, you will double your bet and be dealt only one additional card to add to your hand.
Please note that the player will not be offered a decision option when their soft hand score equals 21.
Split
If your initial hand is a pair of cards of equal value, you can decide to Split the pair to make two separate hands, each with a separate bet equal to your main bet. After a second card is dealt to both your hands, you can improve the value of these two hands by deciding to Hit or Double. Again, you can choose to Stand once you are satisfied with the value of your two hands. However, if you Split an initial pair of Aces, you will receive only one additional card per hand with no option to Hit or Double.
Outcome
If the sum of your hand exceeds 21, you bust and lose your bet on that hand.
When all players have taken turns, the dealer reveals the value of their downcard.
The dealer must Stand on hard 17 and Hit on soft 17. Remember that a “soft hand” includes an Ace worth 11.
You win when the value of your final hand is closer to 21 than the dealer’s hand or when the dealer busts. If the value of your hand is the same as the dealer’s, the game round ends in a push, and your bet is returned (the exception is a tie with a score of 21, in which case you win). When you reach the total hand score of 21, outside of initial hands (Blackjack), you are eligible for a Bonus 21 or Super Bonus 21 payout depending on the combination of cards.
Blackjack is only possible using the two cards in the initial two-card deal. A hand of 21 resulting from a split pair is not considered a Blackjack. Therefore, Blackjack beats any hand of 21 resulting from a split pair.
Side Bets

Place Bets
The BET LIMITS panel shows the minimum and maximum allowed bet limits at the table, which may change from time to time. Open the Bet Limits to check your current limits.
To participate in the game, you must have sufficient funds to cover your bets. You can see your current BALANCE on your screen.

The CHIP DISPLAY allows you to select the value of each chip you wish to bet. Only chips of denominations that can be covered by your current balance will be enabled.
Once you have selected a chip, place your bet by simply clicking/tapping the appropriate bet spot on the game table. Each time you click/tap the bet spot, the amount of your bet increases by the value of the selected chip or up to the maximum limit for the type of bet you have selected. Once you have bet the maximum limit, no additional funds will be accepted for that bet, and a message will appear above your bet to notify you that you have bet the maximum.

Make a Decision
As soon as you receive your first two cards, you can make an initial decision regarding your hand. The decision options (e.g. Hit, Stand, Double, Split, Cash Out) will be displayed, and only those options currently available to you will be enabled. Each decision option reflects real-time statistics — the decision other players made when being in your exact situation and facing the same decision choice.
The decision options are represented as follows:
HIT: an additional card is drawn.
STAND: no additional cards are drawn.
DOUBLE: your bet is doubled and only one additional card is drawn.
SPLIT: your bet is doubled, and your cards are split into two inidual hands.
CASH OUT: the round is finished for your hand and you will receive back the amount displayed on the Cash Out button.
The amount you receive back with Cash Out depends on the value of your hand and the dealer's face-up card and will only apply to the main bet
The early Cash Out option will not be available if you decide to double, or if you bust, or if the value of your hand is 21 or a Blackjack.
If you do not make a decision before the time expires, the following auto-decision will be applied:
If the total card value of your hand is 11 or less, then — HIT.
If the total card value of your hand is more than 11, then — STAND.
If your balance is insufficient for Double and Split, the corresponding buttons for those decisions will be disabled.
If your balance becomes insufficient before Double or Split decisions are accepted, then your preferred decisions will be rejected and the following auto-decision applied instead:
If your decision was to Double, then — HIT.
If your decision was to Split and the total card value of your hand is 11 or less, then — HIT.
If your decision was to Split and the total card value of your hand is more than 11, then — STAND.

For shuffling
Gameplay continues until the cut card is dealt. Subsequently, the cards are shuffled by a dealer or a shuffler.
If a shuffle table is available, then two shoes with two sets of playing cards are used at the table. In this case, the dealer swaps the shoes, and the shuffle is performed by a shuffler at the shuffling table while the dealer continues to host the game round.

You can exit any table without affecting your presence at other tables you have joined. To exit a table, click the X button.
Please note:
You will automatically exit a table if you join the same table through a different device/browser.
If you click directly on a table icon instead of the +TABLE button, you will merely switch tables instead of joining the chosen table in addition to the table you joined previously.
We kindly advise you to join only as many tables as your screen can accommodate while still allowing you to place bets deliberately and accurately
