Blackjack

Blackjack is Evolution's classic live table: seven seats, a professional dealer and the standard aim of beating the dealer's hand without going over 21. A blackjack, meaning 21 with the first two cards, is the best hand at the table.

Bets range from 5 € to 500 €, a mid-range limit that suits regular blackjack players. The dealer draws to 16 and stands on all 17s, insurance is offered against a dealer blackjack, and a results history helps players who like to track the shoe. For operators, it is a reliable staple that gives a live lobby the game most players look for first.

Free seats are marked with a green light; click a betting box to sit down. When the dealer opens betting, pick a chip value and place it in your box before the timer runs out, staying within the table limits.

The dealer then deals the cards and each player acts in turn under the usual blackjack rules. The dealer must draw on 16 or less and stand on 17.

• Blackjack: 3:2
• Any other winning hand: 1:1
• Insurance (when the dealer has blackjack): 2:1

One camera follows the table, and scanners pick up every card the dealer handles so it appears on your screen at once. There are no slow-motion replays in a card game, but the information button shows previous results.

The interface is simple to use on mobile, tablet and desktop, with the betting chips at the bottom of the screen and the chat beside the video.
