How to Play Blackjack Pro

Blackjack Pro follows standard blackjack rules with the option to play up to three hands simultaneously. The objective is to beat the dealer by getting closer to 21 without going over. Here is how the game works:

1

Choose Your Hands

Select between 1 and 3 hands to play simultaneously. Place your bet on each active hand between R1 and R500. Click Deal to receive your cards.

2

Evaluate Your Hands

Each hand is played independently. Number cards are worth their face value, face cards are worth 10, and Aces are worth 1 or 11. A blackjack pays 3:2.

3

Make Your Decisions

For each hand, choose to Hit, Stand, Double Down, Split or Surrender. Multi-hand play allows you to apply different strategies to each hand based on the dealer's face-up card.

4

Dealer Reveals

After all hands are resolved, the dealer reveals their face-down card. The dealer must hit until reaching 17 or higher and stands on soft 17. Wins are paid on each hand independently.

Bonus Features and Game Mechanics

Multi-Hand Play

Play up to 3 hands simultaneously. Each hand is played independently with its own bet. Multi-hand play allows you to spread risk and apply different strategies to each hand.

Double Down

Double your bet after receiving your first two cards and receive exactly one more card. Available on any two-card hand. Doubling on 9, 10 or 11 is a key basic strategy move.

Split Pairs

Split any pair into two separate hands, each with its own bet. You can split up to three times, creating up to four hands per original hand. Aces can only be split once and receive one card each.

Insurance

When the dealer shows an Ace, you can take insurance for half your original bet. Insurance pays 2:1 if the dealer has blackjack. Basic strategy generally advises against taking insurance.

Surrender

Surrender your hand and forfeit half your bet if your initial hand is unfavourable. Surrendering on hard 16 against a dealer 9, 10 or Ace is recommended by basic strategy.

Statistics Tracker

Blackjack Pro includes a built-in statistics tracker that records your session results, win rate and average bet. This helps you monitor your performance and identify areas for improvement.
