Atlantic City Blackjack Features

Atlantic City Blackjack features realistic chip trays and staple Blackjack betting areas in a virtual green table and its top-down view lets you view the action from above. This game aims to maintain the mood of a real casino Blackjack table and even in its rules, it doesn’t fail in doing so.

For this game, dealer stands on 17 and if he has a Ten or an Ace, he always checks his Hole Card for a possible Blackjack. The Surrender option is worth half of your original bet but you cannot go for this option if the dealer has an Ace. Also, splitting and re-splitting is allowed up to only three times. This feature lets you handle as much as four hands at once.

A pair of Aces can always be split but you can only get one card after the split and you card will automatically stand regardless of its value. However, getting a ten for your split Ace and vice-versa are not considered as Blackjack. Double Downs are also allowed on any two initial cards even after a split but this cannot be done if you are carrying a Blackjack.

If the dealer’s initial card is an Ace, you may go for Insurance and your wager will only be worth half the original. Also, you can hit for up to nine cards after the initial two and if you do not have 21, this hand will stand after the maximum nine cards. Standard Blackjack payouts apply to Atlantic City Blackjack too. Blackjack pays out at 3:2 while Insurance pays 2:1. Other winning hands are paid 1:1 on your original bet.
