Free Bet Blackjack

The game utilizes standard 52 card decks. All numbered cards have face value. Aces have a value of 1 or 11, face cards have a value of 10. The objective is to form a hand whose sum is closer to 21 than the player/dealer’s hand but does not exceed 21.

To play, a player will place an initial bet and receive two cards. The player/dealer hand receives one card face down and one card face up. Players have the option of doing the following actions:

Hit - taking an additional card

Double Down - take only one additional card with an added half or more of the original bet placed behind the original bet on the first two cards

Split - split two cards of the same value by adding an additional same value bet which creates an additional hand, Aces will only receive one card

Surrender- forfeit half their bet on the first two cards

Stay - take no additional cards.

In Free Bet Blackjack, players receive an option of a free “split”. You can split Aces and up to three times for all other cards. An addition option is a free “double down.” Free double downs are only available on hands with the value of 9, 10 or 11. Both of these actions are represented with a free bet token.

Players cannot stay on a hand of 11 or less, players must stand on a hand with the value of 21. Once all players have acted, the dealer will reveal the player/dealer hand. The player/dealer must draw cards until a minimum of hard 17. The player’s hands are then compared to the player/dealer. The hand closer to 21 wins. If a player has the same value hand as the dealer, it is considered a “push”, neither wins nor loses.

A “Natural” in the game is any Ace with a Face Card or 10 on the first two cards. A Natural is paid 6 to 5. A Natural beats a hand equal to 21 that is not an Ace or 10 value card. If a player and player/dealer both have a Natural, the hands “push”. At the start of the game, if the player/dealer is showing an Ace or 10 value card as the up card, they will check to see if they have a Natural. If they have a Natural the game ends and all bets lose unless a player also has a Natural. A player has an option to buy “Insurance” on their hand before the player/dealer checks for the Natural. Insurance is an additional bet equal to half the amount of their bet. If the player/dealer does not have a Natural, the Insurance bet loses. If the player/dealer does have a Natural, the Insurance bet is paid double.

Push 22 Bonus Bet

Push 22 is an optional bonus bet and holds an exception to normal game play. If the player/dealer busts (goes over 21), with a hand equal to the value of 22, all base bets push and push 22 bonus bets are paid 11 to 1. Additionally, if the player/dealer busts with the specific hand of 7,8,9 suited, any player hand that busts in that round will push.
