RULES
The objective of Vegas Blackjack! is to get a hand that totals 21 or is closer to 21 than the dealer's hand without exceeding 21.
The value of a hand is the sum of the individual cards values. Blackjack is the highest hand and consists of two cards: an ace and any 10-point card. Blackjack beats a score of 21.
You can choose 1 to 5 hands to play on in a game round. The chosen hands are played clockwise, starting from your rightmost hand. The dealer's hand is played last. You may split, double and take insurance, just like in standard Blackjack.
Vegas Blackjack! is a variant of Blackjack with the following rules:
SPLIT
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.
DOUBLE
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 theoretically 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 an extra win, even if your regular game hand does not win. The side bet payout depends on the combination that the cards form.
Winnings | Pays |
---|---|
Winning Hand | 1:1 |
Insurance | 2:1 |
Blackjack | 6:5 |
PERFECT PAIRS
Place the Perfect Pairs side bet on the PERFECT PAIRS betting area adjacent to any regular bet area that contains a regular bet.
A Perfect Pairs bet pays when your initial 2 cards form a Perfect Pair, a Coloured Pair or a Red/Black Pair.
Winnings | Pays |
---|---|
PERFECT | 25:1 |
COLORED | 12:1 |
RED/BLACK | 6:1 |
The payout format used in all the above paytables shows that when you win, you get back your bet plus an amount that is a multiple of your bet.
21+3 BETS
You can place a 21+3 side bet on the '21+3' betting area, found beneath each regular betting area, for each of your hands that has a regular bet placed on it. This side bet wins if your first two cards and the dealer's first card form a Flush, Straight, Three of a Kind, Straight Flush or Suited Three of a Kind combination.
The Perfect Pair, Coloured Pair, Red/Black Pair, and 21+3 combinations pay in accordance with the paytable below.
Side bets cannot be placed without placing a regular bet. All types of side bets can be placed at the same time.
Winnings | Pays |
---|---|
Suited Three Of A Kind | 100:1 |
Straight Flush | 40:1 |
Three Of A Kind | 30:1 |
Straight | 10:1 |
Flush | 5:1 |
