Live Platinum Blackjack

Created by Evolution Gaming, Live Blackjack Platinum is available to play at one of  UK’s online casino sites - Grosvenor Casino. You will be able to enjoy the super high roller experience. The aim of the game is to achieve a hand close to 21 but without going over. Like the Traditional European Blackjack, this game is played with 8 decks of standard 52 cards.

Blackjack was previously called Vingt – et- Un which means 21. It was then in Europe that it was popularly known as “Blackjack”. There is still a debate about the origin of Blackjack. In 1400, an Italian game, Thirty-one, was created where the objective was to get a card close to 31. In 1600, the French created Vingt – et – Un. It was only in 1789, that Blackjack was introduced in the United States.

If you have a value close to 21, you can win! However, you can select any of the below steps:

• Stand – This is where you decide to keep the cards given to you and not to take more cards
• Hit – This feature is to request another card
• Double Down – You double your bet, receive an additional card and then you stand.
• Split – If you received 2 cards of the same value, you can choose to split it. You double your bet, receive two more cards. It is like playing for two hands simultaneously
• Surrender – If you feel you are going to lose the hand, you can surrender. You lose only half of your bet.
