Unibet is licensed by the government of Malta which is great because that means all sorts of protections exist for players, however this also means that plenty of countries are excluded from signing up at the site.
Unibet is a name that has been in the online casino industry since the late 1990s; 1997 to be specific. Generally regarded as one of the most recognizable brand names, Unibet can also boast an extensive and scandal-free track record, which is something that only increases the popularity of the site overall.

Live Blackjack at Unibet
Though it shouldn’t necessarily come as any surprise, the sheer number of blackjack tables will leave you spoilt for choice. Before going any further, it is worth mentioning that live dealer blackjack at Unibet is provided by both NetEnt and Evolution Gaming . Unfortunately, we had some trouble loading the NetEnt blackjack lobby, but the Evolution lobby functioned flawlessly.
Evolution Live Dealer Blackjack at Unibet
In total, there are more than 50 live games running at any given point in time. At the top of the lobby you will find more than 15 Unibet-branded tables with various betting ranges. The thing we noticed is that most tables, even those with smaller minimums (€5 and €10), have wide ranges between minimum and maximum bets. For example, tables with €5 minimums feature a maximum bet of €2,500 per hand.
The largest table we saw as far as bet size is concerned boasted a minimum of €50 and a maximum wager of €50,000, which is a maximum you will seldom find elsewhere. As for the gameplay experience itself, the user interface is simple, the dealers are courteous and friendly, and there are plenty of side bets available, including bet behind (unlimited), 21+3, and Perfect Pairs.
There are a few things that differentiate Unibet-branded Evolution live dealer games and the generic Evolution tables. For one, you will notice that the Unibet tables are a gray color while the standard Evolution tables are green. What’s more, the backdrop is different and features advertisements for Unibet, specifically advertisements letting players know that a Unibet app can be downloaded to all Android and iOS devices. Though you cannot see other blackjack tables and casino games, you can hear them during your play, further solidifying the realistic experience.
Another difference between standard Evolution games and those at Unibet-branded tables is that the maximum bet you can place at a non-Unibet table is €10,000; significantly smaller than the previously mentioned €50,000 max. Finally, it is worth mentioning that Unibet tables are populated solely by players who have active accounts at Unibet. The generic tables are populated by a host of players from a number of different online casinos that utilize Evolution software. This is not such a big deal to most, but there are plenty of people who prefer to play at a table populated by those who also have Unibet accounts.
Apart from standard blackjack games, you will also find Blackjack Party, which is an Evolution game that has two dealers and a party atmosphere. With music being played in the background and lively chatter between the two dealers and those at the table, the game puts a fun spin on the traditional game.
