Split

If player’s first two cards have the same value, these may be Split into two separate hands by placing a second bet equal to the original bet. Player will then draw additional cards to each hand.

Players may draw as many cards as they like on each split hand, but if they split two Aces, then they receive only one additional card for each Ace.

If a player receives an Ace and a ten-value card in a split hand, it is considered 21 and not Blackjack. In this case the pay-out is 1:1, not 1:1.5.

Double

If after the player is dealt the first two cards, and they think that the third card will allow them to beat the dealer’s hand, they can double the bet. The bet amount becomes twice the original (with the difference taken out of the balance), and they are dealt one more card.

Insurance

If the dealer shows an Ace in his initial hand, players are given a chance to insure their bets against the dealer having a Blackjack. If they get Insurance, an amount equal to half of the original bet is placed separately on the table.

If the dealer does have Blackjack, players are paid 2 to 1 on the insurance. This way they do not lose their original bet (because they get the 2x half the original bet, plus the insurance amount back). If the dealer does not have Blackjack, players lose the insurance amount, even if they end up losing.

Player can insure any Real Money bet, but not a Golden Chip bet. If the game supports Multi-seat feature, insurance is applied on all the position the player has occupied, except for the position where the player has used Golden Chips.

Insurance is offered when the dealer shows an Ace in their initial hand as the first card: timer is displayed on the screen, stating that Insurance is available. Two buttons are displayed: Skip and Insurance. Player needs to make a decision, and if they choose to insure, Insurance bet is made on all their hands.

10 Card Charlie

It is theoretically possible for the player to draw 10 cards without going bust. In this case the player’s hand automatically wins, except when the dealer has Blackjack.
