How to Play Vegas Strip Blackjack

This version of Blackjack is played using 6 Decks of Cards which are shuffled after each hand.There are 5 playing positions you can choose from and you can play up to 5 hands of blackjack at the same time.Each hand played is a separate wager against the dealer.

Objective
The goal is for the player's hand to add up to 21 or have a hand that is higher than the dealer.

Dealer's Options
The dealer stands on All 17s.

How to Play
When starting the blackjack game for the first time the blackjack table is empty – no cards or wagers are on the table and the default wager amount is active.

You now decide how much you want to wager and how many hands you want to play and then place your wager(s) on the table.Once you have completed placing your wager(s) you can start the game by clicking on the DEAL button.

The dealer deals two cards at each player position that has a wager and deals two cards for the dealer.One of the dealer's cards remains face down and all other cards are turned face up.Once all the cards have been dealt, Dealer always peeks for Blackjack before your turn if he/she is showing an Ace or a 10-value card (10, J, Q, K).

Once all cards are dealt and Dealer checks for Blackjack, you are able to the Hit or Stand.When applicable, you are able to Split, Double, or buy Insurance.

If your dealt hand contains an Ace and a 10 or a face card then you have a Blackjack, also called a Natural, and play is automatically moved to the next available hand.

If the value of your hand exceeds 21, then you have gone Bust and have lost this hand and play automatically moves to the next available hand.

When the player's hand(s) are completed, the dealer's hand is played out.Once the dealer's hand is complete, your hand(s) is compared to the dealer's hand to determine win(s) or loss(es) and to update your casino account balance accordingly.

To play again you click on the Rebet button and then click on the Deal button.
