How To Play

The game will start off with you placing a bet on the table. Along with the main hand, you will also have four optional side bets available to you. If you plan on playing with any of them, this will be the time. Once the betting window had completed it's countdown, the dealer will signal that no more bets are allowed and deal the first two cards to both the player (you) and the dealer. The players cards will be dealt facing up while the dealers 2nd card will be dealt facing down.

Should there not be an Ace as the first card or Blackjack for the dealer, then players will be asked to make a playing decision. You will be able to hit, stand, double or split. After players have completed their choices, the dealer will reveal his hand and the two will be compared. Should both hands have the same value, this is known as a push and players bets will be returned. If the player has the better hand than the dealer, then the player will be paid even money on the bet. If the dealer has bust, all winning players will then be paid even money on their bets. If the dealer busts with 22, then all winning player hands will be pushed and no winnings are paid while bets will be returned to players.
