How to Play Blackjack Single Deck (NetEnt)
Blackjack Single Deck is an online blackjack, which is played using one standard 52-card deck. The cards are shuffled before each deal. The range of bets is regulated according to the rules of each casino. For example, Unibet Casino offers three tables with the following betting limits: 0.10-5, 1-40 and 25-500 euros. Gamers can play betting only on one hand.
This is a version of blackjack in which the croupier deals himself two cards, one of which is face-up. If the dealer's upcard is a ten or an ace, he takes a look at the hole card checking for blackjack. If he has it, the player loses. If the customer also has blackjack, the draw is announced.
The card values in Blackjack Single Deck are standard. The score is calculated traditionally. The conventional hands are paid 1:1. Blackjack is paid 3: 2.
Blackjack Single Deck has the following rules:
- The dealer stands on a hard 17 and hits on a soft 17.
- It is allowed to double only on the first two cards whose score is 10 or 100 points.
- It is prohibited to make a double after a split.
- It is allowed to split on the first two cards of the same value (even if the ranks are different).
- It is allowed to split hands several times.
- A split of aces is available only once per hand. One card is added to each split ace.
- An ace and a ten formed after a split provides a 21 (it is not considered to be blackjack).
- Insurance against blackjack is available when the dealer has a face-up ace. It is equal to half of the bet and is paid 2:1.
The user wagers on a single hand, and then the cards are dealt. The player decides concerning his hand. Then the dealer compares hands and makes payouts if the client wins. If the player busts, the dealer still faces up his cards.
The house edge in Blackjack Single Deck is just 0.45% if you play using the basic strategy.
