How To Play Stadium Blackjack
It’s classic blackjack with a twist. Try to beat the dealer as you place wagers on up to three hands at a time through an individual play station while a Live! dealer draws the cards.
How To Play Stadium Blackjack
Stadium Blackjack is unlike standard blackjack, this game is played on an electronic wagering terminal. You will buy in by inserting cash and/or a gaming voucher into the terminal. Prior to the start of the game you will place a wager along with an option to place a side bet wager. Lucky Aces and 21+3 (see side bet info for payouts.) The dealer then begins the game by dealing one card face up to be used as all players’ first card, second card face up to be used as the dealer’s first card, third card face up to be used as all players’ second card, the fourth card is dealt to the dealer face down. You will then have options identical to standard blackjack; surrender, stand, hit, split, double down, and insurance. Rather than being asked for a hand signal, you will select your option on the terminal. The game has a countdown clock. If you take no action on your hand at the conclusion of the countdown clock and your hand totals 11 or less, you will receive a hit. If your total is a hard 12 and higher, including a soft 17, your hand will stand. After all decisions have been made, the dealer will deal community cards, which will consist of your hit cards. All wagers will then be settled electronically. When you leave the game, you will cash out by printing a slot voucher which can be redeemed at a ticket redemption unit or the cashiers’ cage or be used at any table games table or slot machine
