Variations

Blackjack Switch. In this game, ye get to play two hands at the same time and ye have the option of switching the second card received by each hand. Fer example, when a player is dealt a hand of Ace/5 and 6/Queen, he may then take the 5 and Queen and switch them so he now has Ace/Queen (blackjack) and 6/5 fer an obvious advantage.

   * Doubling and splitting are allowed which gives the player a nice advantage.
   * If the totals 22, the game is a push/tie. (Blackjacks still win fer the player regardless.)
   * Blackjacks pay more money to the player than they usually do.
   * The dealer hits on soft 17 (when there's an Ace in the dealer's cards).

The SUPER MATCH bet: The Super Match is on an optional bet that ye can make while playing blackjack switch. It can usually be of any desired amount. By making the Super Match bet, the player is hoping to get a pair or three-of-a-kind from the four cards in their 2 parallel hands. If so, the player wins the Super Match bet and then the hand is played out as normal.

Blackjack Surrender. In this variation of blackjack the player has the option to "surrender" his hand. This action accepts a loss but the player is given half of his bet back.

Double Exposure Blackjack. This unique variation of blackjack allows the players to see both of the dealers cards. In this game a blackjack is only paid 1:1 and all ties go to the dealer.

Singledeck vs. Multideck. Single deck is blackjack played using only 1 standard deck of 52 cards. Multideck is using more than 1 deck of cards. Casinos generally use 6 or 8 decks.

There are several other variations that have slightly different rules, but the games are basically all the same. It is fun to mix and match the different variations until ye find which one is most enjoyable!
