The game itself has seven seats and an unlimited number of places for Bet Behind players, so everyone can take part. The user interface is undoubtedly the best on the market, and the playability of the game is supreme when compared to other online blackjack games.

How to Play Blackjack Live

Blackjack Live is played according to usual rules for this card game, so you are aiming to get a hand as close to 21 as possible that beats the dealer’s hand, but without going bust. To play this version of blackjack online, simply follow these steps:

  1. Enter the live casino lobby and select a Blackjack Live table – choose the one that suits your budget.
  2. Take one of the available seven seats at the table.
  3. If there isn’t a seat available, you can use the BET BEHIND option.
  4. The game will begin and all players will be dealt two cards (the dealer also gets two cards, but one is face up. Add up the values in your hand to see how close to 21 you are (Aces can count as 1 or 11.)
  5. From this point, you can choose whether to Hit (receive another card,) Stand (stick with what you’ve got,) Double, Split or take Insurance. You can select SPLIT only if you are dealt a pair (you’ll have to bet separately on each if so.) If the dealer’s up card is an Ace, you will be offered optional Insurance against the dealer having a blackjack (two cards that add up exactly to 21, such as an Ace and Q.)
  6. When all hands on the table have been played, the dealer will turn over their face-down card, play their hand and then pay out on any successful bets.
