 When you play blackjack switch, the main trait of the game is that the player is allowed to 'switch' the second cards around, if desired.
For example, if you are dealt a king/five on your first hand, and a six/ace on your second hand, then you can 'switch' the second cards, the ace and five around, to make the following 2 hands: king/ace and six/five. All doubling and splitting is allowed as in regular blackjack. To balance this powerful element, the dealer will 'push' players' hands on a dealer's total of 22 (in apposed to busting in regular blackjack).
However, 'Blackjacks' will still win. This still gives the player a significant advantage and so 2 further rules are implemented to make the game an extremely fair proposition. The other 2 rules are: 1. Blackjacks pay even money. 2. Dealer Hits Soft 17.
All rules of blackjack switch are based on conventional blackjack unless written otherwise. The following are the exceptions.
- Six decks are used.
- The player must make two bets of equal size.
- All cards are dealt face up.
- The player may switch the 2nd card dealt to each hand.
- Player may double on any 2 cards.
- Player may double after a split.
- Player cannot resplit.
- Full European no-peek rule - player loses total amount bet against a dealer blackjack. A benefit of this rule is that the player can switch to a blackjack, even if the dealer has a blackjack.
