Blackjack Switch

Blackjack Switch is a variant of traditional blackjack which allows players to ‘switch’ cards between two hands. Players must make two bets of equal size and are then permitted to switch the second card dealt of each hand.

Naturally, this rule comes at a price. Dealer hands of 22 result in a push, and blackjack pays even money. Blackjack Switch is available online at Playtech powered internet casinos, as well as in various casinos in Vegas and Russia.

Game rules:

• Six or eight decks
• Dealer hits soft 17
• Player must make two bets of equal size
• Cards are dealt face-up
• When the dealer has an ace or ten up-card, they will peak for blackjack
• In the event of dealer blackjack all player hands lose, except for a blackjack push
• Only the second card of each hand may be switched with the second card of the other hand
• A switched blackjack counts as 21 points, and is valued lower than a natural blackjack
• Players can double any two cards
• Double after split (DAS) allowed
• Players can resplit up to four hands
• Player blackjacks pay even money
• A dealer’s total of 22 will push against any player total of 21 or less. Player natural blackjacks still beat dealer totals of 22.
