Double Exposure Blackjack
Loading...There are two distinctive things that make a dramatic difference in Double Exposure Blackjack (from BGaming):
- Blackjack pays 1:1
- Dealer wins all ties, except BJ ties which are won by Player.
Those undoubtedly unfavorable rules are well offset by one big benefit: Dealer receives both cards facing up. And this fact alters a basic strategy profoundly. So at the beginning of any round, both Dealer and Player receive two open cards each. A precise decision whether to take another card or pass the turn depends on player’s total score and dealer’s visible hand. Other betting options (Split and Double Down) may be greyed or highlighted, depending on the situation. Doubling is offered on any hard 9 to 11. Splitting is also very player-friendly for it is possible to split any pair (only once) of the same-valued cards (e.g. jack and king). Doubling is not available in case the hand was split.
All of these rules, when combined and taken as a whole, lead to an expected player return of 99.3%, quite a good percentage value for a live casino blackjack. Dealer’s always hitting on a soft 17 hand also affects the player edge positively. Table limits: $1–$100/hand (or in bitcoin if applicable). Players from South Africa may give it a try and play with real money after signing up with an online casino.
