Playing European Blackjack

The rules of the enhanced version of European Blackjack are pretty much the same as the standard games with a few tweaks for added effects.

European Blackjack uses two standard decks of cards and can be played only in the regular mode (no multi-hand or progressive games available). There are other options like “Double Down”, “Split”, “Stand” and “Insurance” (cannot be resolved till end of the hand- has to be resorted to with extreme caution ) that can be exercised with some restrictions viz-a viz the original. Players can ‘Split’ but cannot re-split and cannot double after the ‘Split’. The only pairs that can be doubled are 9’s, 10’s, Jacks, Queens, Kings and Aces. The surrender option is not available in the European Blackjack version and the game is played on two different tables. Users can draw to split aces and dealer stands on soft 17.

The game has a sophisticated interface and robustly packaged software with several player friendly options like Auto-Rebet, Quick Deal and comprehensive player stats included. The objective of the game is similar to the standard version- To have an in hand total that exceeds the total of the dealer without getting busted (going over 21) or staying as close to 21 yet under it while the dealer gets busted. The crux is to beat the dealer. European Blackjack pays off a 3 to 2 odds on a bet. The game offers one of the best pay-backs on the internet provided players stay abreast with the variables that affect the odds.
