Short answer

What should I look for in a blackjack table?

A 3:2 payout on blackjack, a dealer who stands on soft 17, doubling on any two cards and as few decks as possible. A 6:5 payout alone adds about 1.4 percentage points to the house edge, more than all the other rules together.

Basic strategy

Basic strategy is the mathematically best play for each hand against each dealer card. Our basic strategy charts and the blackjack maths guide explain how to use them. Card counting does not work at online RNG tables, which shuffle every hand.

Blackjack and bonuses

Blackjack often counts 10% or less towards wagering, or nothing. Read the weighting table before you opt in.

Questions

New blackjack sites: questions

What is the house edge in blackjack?

About 0.5% with good rules and basic strategy, and higher at tables with poor rules.

Is 6:5 blackjack worth playing?

No. It adds about 1.4 points to the house edge.

Can I count cards online?

Not at RNG tables, which shuffle every hand. Live tables reshuffle often too.

Do UK stake limits apply to blackjack?

No. They apply to online slots only.

Responsible gaming

Play only if you are 18+ and it stays fun

These rules apply on every page of this site. A young casino has less history to judge it by, so the limits matter more.

18+ only

Adults only, everywhere

You must be 18 or older. A licensed casino must check your age and identity before you can deposit or play, so have your ID ready when you register.
