BLACKJACK

Six decks, dealt from the shoe. Tap chips onto the layout to make your bet, then beat the dealer without going over 21. Split a pair, double down when it's right, and decide on insurance when the dealer shows an ace.

Blackjack pays 3 to 2 · Dealer must stand on all 17s
The chips are fake. Go broke and the pit boss stakes you again.

TAP TO SIT DOWN

Basic Strategy · 6 Deck S17

Dealer stands on soft 17, peeks for blackjack, allows doubling on any first two cards and after splitting, and does not offer surrender. Read across from your hand to the dealer's upcard. If a double or split is unavailable, use the fallback after the slash. On a phone, swipe each table sideways to see 7–A.

Insurance: never take it. If splitting is unavailable, play the pair as its hard total (un-splittable aces hit).
