Atlantic City Blackjack

Atlantic City Blackjack is played with 8 decks of 52 cards, you are allowed to play one hand at a time, there is a hole card, and the dealer must stand on a soft 17. Blackjack pays 3 to 2 in this variation (as with most others), you are allowed to surrender, you can double, re-split up to 2 times and can double after a split. The decks are shuffled after each game to ensure fairness. And in Atlantic City Blackjack, you have an option called “Late Surrender”. This option allows you to give up half of your original bet so that you don’t have to play out the current hand.

Other special rules that apply to this variation of Blackjack include the splitting rule, which in this variation states that if you split any pair of cards and end up with 21, this is not considered a Blackjack. You can split a max of 3 times per hand (which would give you a total of 4 hands in one round), except in the case of Aces, which can only be split once. If you choose to split aces, you get only one card for each ace and then the hand stands. The Double Down Rules for Atlantic City Blackjack are relatively simple. You are allowed to double down after a split, but not on a blackjack.

Finally, you can take Insurance only if the Dealer’s face-up card is an Ace. This insurance is a bet that is half of your original wager and is separate from your original bet. Insurance only covers your primary hand, in other words, it doesn’t cover any splits or double down bets. If you choose to take insurance and the dealer doesn’t have Blackjack, your insurance bet is lost and the game continues. If the dealer does have Blackjack, your pay out is 2 to 1.
