Bonus Features:
Crazy 7, Bust Bonus, 21+3, Perfect Pairs, Six Card Charlie
Crazy 7: Here, you’re looking for 7’s within your first three cards. It’s a 5:1 payout for any 7 but if you’re lucky enough to hit suited trips, you’ll walk away with 2,000x your stake.
Bust Bonus: Bet on the dealer busting. The more cards they use, the more you’ll win. If it’s with 8+ cards, you’re looking at a 250:1 payout.
21+3: Form a flush, straight, three-of-a-kind or a straight flush using your first two cards and the dealer’s up-card and you win. We had a fair bit of luck with it, winning roughly every fifth hand, which kept our balance nicely topped up – €100 wins for multiple straights and even a 40:1 win for a straight flush that instantly paid €400.
Perfect Pairs: If your first two cards create a pair, you’ll instantly win. A mixed pair pays 6:1, a coloured pair pays 12:1 and a suited pair pays 25:1. We landed several coloured pairs but the payouts didn’t really match our overall investment – perhaps we needed a bit more luck!
Six Card Charlie: Draw six cards without busting and you’re automatically a winner.
Auto-Stand: As a live game, you only have a limited window to make a decision. Thankfully, the Auto-Stand feature automatically stops dealing cards once you’ve hit a specific hand total. We didn’t really use it much as we were focused on strategy-based play but we imagine it’s a handy tool for beginners learning the ins and outs of the game.
Live Statistics: You can see what other players have chosen to do in real-time thanks to the live statistics – handy if you’re unfamiliar with Perfect Strategy.
One Blackjack is a unique way to play live dealer Blackjack. We love the idea behind it as it speeds up the gameplay The various side bets can be great fun if your luck is in, but we understand that more experienced players will likely give them a miss in order to focus on a strategic approach.
The table is visually appealing, the gameplay functions are well-designed and the betting limits aren’t overly restrictive. So, on the whole, we would recommend this game to the advanced Blackjack player.
Atlantic City Blackjack: For those who want a more traditional Blackjack experience, try out Switch Studios’ Atlantic City Blackjack (2019). While the payout potential is much lower as there are no side bets, it’s a great option if you want an authentic table experience. We made great use of the double feature when we played, leading to the biggest win of our session – ₹30,000.
Relax Gaming Blackjack: Although it may appear visually dated by today’s standards, Relax Gaming’s Blackjack comes complete with everything you need for a true experience. With multi-hand play, insurance, double-down options and a splitting function, it’s ideal for more experienced players. Plus, it has a much larger maximum win, which caps at 6,000x your stake!
