Blackjack Games. Play 21.
Blackjack is one of the most popular online casino games- and with good reason, because (depending on the variant that you play), you'll enjoy some of the lowest house edges of any game in the casino.
Of course, if you want to play for one of the big jackpots, you'll need to play slots games, but if you want to carve out a decent pot on a lucky run, you're as likely to do it playing a variant of a blackjack game online, as any other.
But which variant to play? One of the best things about playing blackjack games online is that there is so much choice. But that can also be one of the worst things about choosing where to play.
To help you, we have listed out our favourite variants of blackjack the return the highest amount to players (RTP)- the so called Payout. Increase the RTP, and you'll keep more of the money on the table, and the casino will keep less (on average).
Bear in mind, that th elower the number of decks, the better in most cases. The house edge increases the most from one deck to 2 decks.
1 deck: 0.2%
2 decks; 0.45%
4 decks: 0.6%
6 decks: 0.65%
8 decks : 0.67%
Online Blackjack Games: Best Payouts
Vegas Blackjack
You can double down after a split:, there’s a good RTP on this variant. If you can find single deck Vegas blackjack, you are really talking, but it's pretty rare. We'd recommend Platinum Play which offers Vegas Blackjack with a 1500 Free Bets offer.
Atlantic City Blackjack
In Atlantic City blackjack there’s no resplitting, they only offer late surrender, a dealer must stand on certain totals and one card is allowed when splitting aces. This might seem mean but in fact payout rates are higher than average.
Single Deck Blackjack
This variant has just one deck of cards. Watch out though- in theory the odds should be better, and this is obviously great for card counters, but check the RTP first, as some casinos charge extra.
Super Fun 21:
Rules include you winning automatically if you have six cards that add up to 20 or more (without going bust), you can split 4 times and you can double downat any point in the game. A six card win even beats a blackjack.
Double Deck Blackjack
Played with 2 decks of cards, so this is good for you card counters out there.
European Blackjack
Played with 8 decks of cards (ouch!), and you can’t split on 4s, 5s and 10s, there's no re-splitting, there’s an early surrender and you can't "Peek".
Pontoon
The British Blackjack,: your first cards are hidden., plus the best hand is Pontoon (or “Blackjack”) while the next one a 5 Card Trick, where the five cards of one hand equals 21. They're crazy them Brits!
Progressive Blackjack:
You make a side-bet to play for a progressive jackpot. We'd avoid this king of blackjack, as the odds are significantly worse. if you want to play for a progressive jackpot, play slots.
