Live Blackjack

Blackjack has captivated countless casino goers with its easy-to-learn gameplay, fast pace, and strategic potential. This is what makes it so popular, and one of the things that practically demands that it be played at a real casino.

If you want the next best thing, though, we’ve got you covered. Plush Casino offers a premium live Blackjack experience that’s unlike anything you’ll find on the Web!

We carry some of the best UK live Blackjack games, streamed in high definition video straight to your desktop or mobile device, allowing you to play wherever you are, whenever you want.

How To Play Live Blackjack

If your hankering for a little fun, getting started with live Blackjack is easy. Each game starts with players placing their bets. After this, the dealer deals two cards to each player, as well as to herself, with one face-down.

Every card has a score value depending on its different ranking, and independently of its suit. Numbered cards from 2-10 use their number as their value.  The face cards—kings, queens, and jacks—have a value of 10. Aces can be used as either a 1 or an 11. Winning the game involves beating the dealer score, while not exceeding a score of 21.

Throughout each game of Blackjack, players have the option to Hit, Stand, Split, Double Down, or Surrender.

Hit means that the dealer provides you with another card, increasing your hand’s score. If your score exceeds 21, then this is considered a “Bust” and you lose your bet.

Stand means that you stick to your current hand, and won’t accept any more cards from the dealer. This is done when you believe that you have a score that could beat the dealer, and that drawing another card might bring your score over 21.

If your first two cards are the same, then you have the option to Split. This means that you take one of your cards and create a separate hand, along with its own separate, second bet. The dealer will then give you another card for your first hand. You play the first hand normally until you Bust or Stand, then play again with the second hand.

Doubling Down means that you double your original bet in exchange for receiving exactly one more card and then Standing. Using this is definitely one heck of a gamble.

When you Surrender, you stop playing, but get half of your original bet back.

If you have the same score as the dealer when you Stand, it’s a draw condition, known as a “Push,” and nothing happens to the bet.

After all players have received their cards from the dealer, she puts up her own face-down card. The dealer follows her own rules and will behave predictably:

• She must Stand if her hand value is 17. If the value is a “Soft 17,” i.e. her hand contains an Ace, then she must Hit.
• If the value is 16 and under, she must Hit until she meets or exceeds 17, at which point she will Stand.
• If the dealer Busts, then everyone wins regardless of their score.

In Blackjack, most wins are 1:1—you win an amount equal to the value of your bet. If you win a bet of $10, then you win £10 right back.

There is a special case known as a “Natural 21” where your initial deal is an Ace, and a 10, Jack, Queen. In this case, you get a payout of 3:2, getting 150% of your bet. For example, if you get a natural on a bet of £10, you get $15.
