Playing Online Blackjack Switch


While in most respects playing online Blackjack Switch is very similar to regular online Blackjack, there are some integral game differences.

For instance, in online Blackjack Switch points can go as high as 22 instead of the usual 21, and the game is played with 6 decks of 52 cards. How the game begins? when you place not one but two bets of equal size.

Next, you will be dealt 2 hands of 2 cards, each face up. This is where the switch comes in, as you now have the choice to 'switch' or swop the second or last card dealt in either hand.

For example, say you are dealt an 8 and 2 in one hand and a 9 and 3 in another. You can switch the last 2 cards giving you totals of 11 points in each hand. Hit a 10 or face card for each and you've made 21!

What you also need to know about online Blackjack switch is that you are allowed to double down on any 2 cards, even after splitting your cards. You are not allowed to re-split and the dealer is permitted to hit a soft 17.

In addition, should the dealer make a Blackjack, then you will lose both of your bets. If the dealer holds 22 and you have made 21 or less, the hand is considered a push (tie). However your natural Blackjack will beat the dealer's 22 points.
