Single Deck Blackjack
The fewer decks are used in blackjack, the higher player’s return. This common truth has been implemented in Single Deck Blackjack that is evaluated to have a 0.38% house edge, very low figures that do favor the player. Though single-deck, the game is multi-hand for a player may place a bet on 1–3 hands. A real money bet may amount to $1 (min) through to $100 (or in bitcoin). To leverage the advantage stemming from a single hand used, many other rules favor the house to a greater degree, e.g. the fact Dealer must hit on soft 17 hand cuts player edge by 0.22%. Payouts are conventional, with no short pay: BJ, Insurance and normal wins pay 3:2, 2:1 and 1:1 (no unexpected twists here).
Only hard tens and elevens are subject to double down, if needed (this brings down return by 0.18%). Only one split is permitted but a player may draw to split hands as many times as reasonably needed, unless 21 is exceeded. Dealer peeks for BJ and this slightly eases the game play in some situations. Overall, Single Deck Blackjack (from Betsoft) is classic, plain-vanilla rather than a fringe blackjack version. Recommended to BJ fans from South Africa who lean toward classic, tried-and-tested online casino solutions with very good player return.
