The object of Blackjack Switch is for the total of your cards
in either hand to be closer to 21 than the dealer’s cards,
without exceeding 21. Card values are the same as in standard
Blackjack – aces count as either 1 or 11, face cards as
10, and number cards as their face value.
The rules are the same as in standard Blackjack (see here).
Except you have two hands, which you play in turn – first
the right and then the left one, then the dealer plays his hand.
You may split, double, take insurance etc. just like in standard
Blackjack. An exception from the standard Blackjack is that
the dealer always hits soft 17 – meaning he always draws
one more card when he has 17 with an ace counted as 11. Also,
‘Blackjacks’ pay 1/1 instead of 3/2 although more
‘Blackjacks’ are created due to the ‘switching’
option. (See below). Another exception is that Blackjack rule
no. 5 (“If the player doubles and the dealer’s first
card is of value 10, and the dealer gets blackjack, the player
loses only the initial bet.”) does not apply in Blackjack
Switch.
Switch
Prior to any hits, you may switch the top cards of your two
hands.
Push 22
Dealer will “push” on a total of 22 (except 'Blackjacks'
will still win). This means that whenever the dealer's
total reaches 22 then all bets are 'pushed', regardless of their
total except if a player has a ‘Blackjack’, which
will still win.
Super Match
The small circle between the standard bet areas is the super
bet area. The super bet wins if your initial 4 cards contain
2 or more matching cards. For example, if your right hand is
a Queen and a Six, and your left hand a Queen and a King, you
have a pair and your super bet wins. The win ratios are written
on the table.
