SPLITTING
If your first 2 cards have the same value then you may split them into 2 separate hands. The second hand will have the same bet as the hand it was split from. You will then draw additional cards to each hand. You may draw as many cards as you like on each split hand, unless you split 2 Aces (in which case you can receive only 1 additional card for each Ace). If you receive an Ace and a 10-value card in a split hand, it is considered 21 and not Blackjack.
DOUBLING
You can double your bet on a hand before you take a third card. You cannot double the bet on a hand after taking a third card. After doubling a bet, a third and final card will be dealt to you automatically. You can double on all your hands, if you wish. You can also double your bet on a split hand.
INSURANCE
If the dealer’s first face up card is an Ace you will be given a chance to insure each of your regular bets against the dealer having Blackjack. If you take insurance then an amount equal to half your original bet will be deducted from your balance and placed separately on the table. If the dealer has Blackjack, you are paid 2 to 1 on your insurance. This way you do not lose your original bet (because you receive the value of your original bet plus the insurance amount back). If the dealer does not have Blackjack, you lose the insurance amount. Insurance does not affect any side bets.
10-CARD CHARLIE
It is possible for the player to draw 10 cards without going bust. In this case the player’s hand automatically wins, except when the dealer has Blackjack. 10-Card Charlie is also applicable on a split hand.
SIDE BETS
A side bet is a wager you can make beyond the regular game bet to get a win even if your regular game hand does not win. The side bet payout depends on the combination that the cards form.
Side bets cannot be placed without placing a regular bet. All types of side bets can be placed at the same time.
TOP 3
Place the Top 3 side bet on the TOP 3 betting area below each regular bet area that contains a regular bet.
- A Top 3 side bet pays when the dealer’s first face-up card and the player’s two initial cards form a Suited Three of a Kind, Straight Flush or Three of a Kind combination.
SUITED THREE OF A KIND - 500:1
STRAIGHT FLUSH - 180:1
THREE OF A KIND - 90:1
PERFECT PAIRS
Place the Perfect Pairs side bet on the PERFECT PAIRS betting area below each regular bet area that contains a regular bet.
A Perfect Pairs bet pays when your initial 2 cards form a Perfect Pair, a Colored Pair or a Red/Black Pair.
• A Perfect Pair is 2 cards of the same suit and the same value (for example, two 4 of Diamonds cards).
• A Colored Pair is 2 cards of the same value and the same color but different suits (for example, 4 of Diamonds and 4 of Hearts).
• A Red/Black Pair is 2 cards of same value but of different suits and different colors (for example, 4 of Diamonds and 4 of Spades).
PERFECT - 25:1
COLORED - 12:1
RED/BLACK - 6:1
BUSTER BLACKJACK
Place the Buster Blackjack side bet on the BUSTER BLACKJACK betting area below each regular bet area that contains a regular bet.
The Buster Blackjack bet pays when the dealer busts. The more cards in the dealer’s busted hand, the greater the payout.
3 OR 4 CARDS - 2:1
5 CARDS - 4:1
6 CARDS - 18:1
7 CARDS - 50:1
8+ CARDS - 250:1
7 CARDS WITH BLACKJACK - 800:1
8+ CARDS WITH BLACKJACK - 2000:1
The payout format used here means that when you win the side bet, you get back your bet plus an amount that is a multiple of your bet.
The last 2 rows in the paytable means the dealer needs to bust (7/8+) and the player must have a Blackjack.
PROGRESSIVE BLACKJACK
Place the Progressive Blackjack side bet on the PROGRESSIVE BLACKJACK betting area below each regular bet area that contains a regular bet.
A percentage of each Progressive Blackjack side bet goes to the progressive jackpot pool. The Progressive Blackjack side bet pays when you get a winning card combination listed in the paytable below. The highest Progressive Blackjack payout is the progressive jackpot and is won upon receiving 4 consecutive Aces of the same suit, starting with the first card in the hand.
Note: all Progressive Blackjack wins require the card combinations (1 to 4 Aces) to be consecutive and start from the first card in the hand. These wins are awarded at the end of the round, and if the player has split their hand they are calculated separately for each of the new hands.
SUITED AAAA - JACKPOT
SUITED AAA - × 5000
UNSUITED AAAA - × 2500
UNSUITED AAA - × 250
SUITED AA - × 100
UNSUITED AA - × 50

The jackpot for this game works like this:
Seed (how much money the jackpot starts out with): 50 000 × your jackpot bet size.
Contribution rate (what percentage of each bet goes into the jackpot): 3%
Win condition (the result you have to get to win the jackpot): Four consecutive Aces of the same suit, starting from the 1st card in the hand.
Win requirements (what you need to do to be eligible for the jackpot): Place the Progressive Jackpot bet.

The Suited 777, Suited 678, Unsuited 777, Unsuited 678, Suited 21, Unsuited 21, Any 20 and Any 19 combinations pay in accordance with the paytable below.

Game Rules
• 6 decks of cards are used. After each round, used cards are returned to the deck and the deck is shuffled.
• Bets can be placed on any of the hands. The player can play only one hand or up to 3 hands simultaneously.
• Aces count as either 1 or 11, face cards count as 10 and number cards count at their face values.
• The player may not split a split hand.
• Only one card is drawn to each Ace in a split hand.
• The player may double after splitting.
• The dealer will not automatically check for Blackjack, regardless of the value of the dealer’s first face-up card.
• Ace and a 10-point card after a split are considered 21, and not Blackjack.
• Blackjack pays 1.5 times the bet amount (3 to 2).
• If the total value of the player’s cards is closer to 21 than the dealer’s after the dealer has stopped taking cards, the player wins the bet amount (1 to 1).
• If the total of the player’s cards is more than 21, the player’s hand is “bust” and the player automatically loses the bet for that hand.
• If the player and the dealer have the same point total (17 to 21), neither of them wins and the player’s bet is returned to the player in a “push”.
• The dealer always draws to 16. The dealer stands when the dealer’s hand has a value of 17 or greater (including soft 17). The dealer does not draw when the player is “bust”.
• If the dealer’s first card is an Ace, and the player then doubles, and the dealer then reveals Blackjack, then the player loses the doubled bet.
• If the dealer’s first card has a 10-point value, and the player then doubles, and the dealer then reveals Blackjack, then the doubled bet is returned to the player.
• Blackjack beats a score of 21.
