How to play Blackjack Switch


Blackjack Techniques and Strategy

With the rising of new and amazing online casino games , we are in the constant need of getting up to speed on new technology and methods used in the development of online casino games. For those Playtech (http://www.playtech.com) fans, we would like to give you the basics of the very interesting Blackjack Switch game, the latest of the Blackjack variations. Basically the player plays 2 hands and places 2 identical bets to allow for this. The main element of the game is that the player is allowed to 'switch' the second cards around, if desired. For example, if a player is dealt the following 2 hands :

Then the player can 'switch' the second cards i.e. the Ace and 5 around, to make the following 2 hands :
All doubling and splitting is allowed as in regular Blackjack. To compensate for this powerful feature, the dealer will 'push' players' hands on a dealer's total of 22. However, 'Blackjacks' will still win. This still gives a considerable advantage to the player so 2 further rules are implemented to make the game an extremely fair proposition. The other 2 rules are : 'Blackjacks' pay even money Dealer Hits 'Soft 17' So take the 'switch' challenge and prepare yourself for enjoyable and stimulating decisions where you control the order of the cards. SUPER MATCH This is an optional bet which does not have to be the same amount as the 'Blackjack Switch' wager. It can be higher or lower, if desired. Players who place this bet are aiming to be dealt a pair or better from the initial 4 cards dealt out. (See layout on game for payout odds). All 'Super Match' bets are settled before any play of the hands. And that's all there is to it. Simple, but with a brilliant twist . . . Blackjack Switch
