Blackjack
Switch
Blackjack switch is a blackjack variant, which allows the player
to do what is normally considered as a classic cheating manoeuver,
trading cards between two hands. The player must make two bets of
equal size and is allowed to switch the second card dealt to each
hand. Of course nothing comes free, a dealer 22 results in a push
and blackjacks pay even money. Currently the game is played at Playtech
Internet casinos predominantly
Playtech Rules
The following rules apply to the Playtech version.
- All rules are based on conventional blackjack unless otherwise
noted.
- The player must make two bets of equal size.
- Cards will be dealt face up.
- The player may switch the 2nd card dealt to each hand. For example
if one hand has 5,10 and the other has 10,6 the player may switch
the 10 and 6 to have two hands of 11 and 20.
- Six decks are used.
- Dealer hits a soft 17.
- Player may double on any 2 cards.
- Player may double after a split.
- Player may not resplit.
- Winning player blackjacks pay even money.
- Full European no-peek rule. Player loses total amount bet against
a dealer blackjack. A benefit of this rule is that the player
can switch to a blackjack, even if the dealer has a blackjack.
- A dealer total of 22 will push against any player total of 21
or less. A player blackjack will still beat a dealer 22.
This game is flat out fun and the odds are barely in the houses
favor. If played right you have a better chance of winning than
most blackjack games. Even some of the straight blackjack found
in casinos on the net.
