Power Blackjack Introduction
Imagine
live blackjack but it plays a little 🍏 like Extreme Texas Hold’em in the sense that you
can increase your bet after the initial deal. Uniquely, there are 🍏 no 9’s or 10’s in
this online blackjack game. Otherwise, the blackjack rules are as standard, but your
blackjack strategy 🍏 will have to be altered to accommodate the removed cards.
Power
Blackjack Rules
So, in essence, standard blackjack rules apply. The player 🍏 is dealt two
cards face up, while the dealer receives one card up and one card down. As usual, the
🍏 player must aim to beat the dealer. A score of 22 or more will result in going bust and
losing 🍏 the round. The player is given the decision-making power to take a card or
stand.
With the basics out of the 🍏 way, here are the specific blackjack rules for Power
Blackjack by Evolution Gaming.
This is a One-to-Many game, which means all 🍏 the players
play the same hand but can make their own decisions.
The dealer must stand on 17 or
above.
Double Down 🍏 and Split pairs are available.
Blackjack pays 3:2 and Insurance pays
2:1.
All 9’s and 10’s have been removed from the 8 🍏 decks.
Players have the option to
double, triple, or even quadruple down after the initial deal and on splits.
What Is
the 🍏 Power Blackjack Strategy?
The most important consideration for a Power Blackjack
strategy is remembering that there are no 9 or 10 🍏 cards in the decks. Many online
strategies neglect to factor in this change. We can break down the optimal Power
🍏 Blackjack strategy into 3 decision-making categories: Hit or stand, double down, and
splitting.
Hit or Stand
It is recommended that the player 🍏 always hits on a hard 14 or
less – hard meaning a hand with no ace – and players should 🍏 always stand on a hard 18
or more. If your hand of 17 or less is soft, it is best 🍏 that you hit but stand on a
soft 19 or more.
Splitting
For optimal Power blackjack strategy when splitting pairs,
consider the 🍏 following tactics. Split 2’s unless the dealer has a 6 – in that case, hit
instead. Never split a pair 🍏 of 5’s, ever. You can split a pair of 3’s but again, only
if the dealer has a 6.
Never split 🍏 face cards – Jack, Queen, King – and an ace should
only be split when the dealer has either 2 🍏 through to 6 or an 8 through to any of the
face cards. Finally, we always recommend splitting 8’s in 🍏 our Power Blackjack
strategy.
Double down
We say, double down, but this also refers to triple or quadruple
down. The player can 🍏 choose how big they wish to multiply their bet as they deem fit.
Our Power Blackjack strategy recommends always doubling 🍏 down on a pair of 5s if the
dealer has less than 10. If you have a hard 10, it’s 🍏 best to double down with a dealer
2 – 7 but hit for anything else.
If the dealer has a 6 🍏 and you are sitting on soft 15
or 16, you should double down. The same goes for a soft 17 🍏 when the dealer is holding a
5 or 6. We recommend doubling down on a soft 18 if the dealer 🍏 has low cards of 2 – 6.
Anything higher and it is best to hit.
How To Win Power Blackjack?
There are 🍏 two
distinct ways to win at Power Blackjack. The first way is to simply play using a solid
Power Blackjack 🍏 strategy. The RTP of Power Blackjack is 98.80% and this is achieved by
following a good strategy. The second way 🍏 is to leverage side bets. There are 4 types
of side bets in Power Blackjack.
Any Pair – this is a 🍏 bet that the initial deal will be
a pair. A pair pays 7:1 and a suited pair pays 20:1.
Hot3 – 🍏 a wager on the total value
of your initial two cards and the dealer’s up card. You can bet on 🍏 19, 20, 21, or 3
sevens. Payouts range from 1:1 up to 100:1 for 3 sevens.
BustIt – this is a 🍏 bet on the
dealer going bust. There are various levels of bust with a 3-card bust paying 1:1 and
an 🍏 8-card bust paying 250:1.
21+3 – this side bet is a wager that the dealer’s up card
and your initial deal 🍏 will form a 3-card poker hand, such as straight, flush, or suited
trips. Payouts range from 5:1 to 100:1.
