Super Blackjack™
Super Blackjack™ is the highest-action form of blackjack yet devised, delivering more than triple the action of regular blackjack while maintaining near-blackjack game speed. Better yet, with an adjusted house advantage of 0.31% per unit wagered, Super Blackjack™ offers the discerning action gambler some of the lowest-edge action on most any casino floor.

Super Blackjack™ is simply blackjack, except you can split any two cards (first two cards only), and can “double down” for up to 4x your initial game wager. There is no hitting – if you want to draw a card, you’ve got to pay for it.
The Ante pays when you make blackjack or when the dealer busts, and loses if you bust (which should never happen if you are playing correctly!) or when the dealer does not bust. The Ante pays 2-to-1 for any player blackjack -- even if the dealer also makes blackjack -- while paying 6-to-1 for suited blackjack and 20-to-1 for Super Blackjack (the ace of spades with either black jack, in a nod to the hand that gave blackjack its name).
The game is essentially to bet the max in standard doubling situations, while using the ability to split any two cards in order to create more doubling situations – primarily when the dealer has a 2 through 8 showing. You can also use the ability to split any two cards to improve your chances with higher-potential stiff hands primarily against a 9 or 10. Meanwhile, you can use the surrender option to save half your initial bet with weaker stiff hands primarily when the dealer has a 9, 10, or ace showing.
For the complete basic strategy, see the Strategy page.
Note: Whereas Super Blackjack™ allows for unlimited pair re-splits, the demo only allows for a maximum of three splits (four hands total). Also note that whereas Super Blackjack™ allows the player to bet 1x-4x (including 2x and 3x), it is never correct for the player to bet 2x or 3x; as such, for the sake of simplicity, the demo does away with the middle bet sizes, and only allows 1x or 4x doubles.
