MASSIVELY SCALABLE BLACKJACK FOR AN UNLIMITED NUMBER OF PLAYERS

Evolution's Infinite Blackjack is an exceptional, richly featured Blackjack version for an unlimited number of players.

Advanced software combines the live dealing of physical and virtual cards directly to each player. This means every player can enjoy a thrilling live gaming experience without ever having to wait for a seat to become available.

In Infinite Blackjack, all players are dealt the same starter hand by the dealer. After this initial deal, each player can play their hand as they wish.

Therefore, all players can end up with different hands and potential wins, just as if they were sitting at a standard seven-seat Blackjack table. The ‘Six Card Charlie’ rule and four optional side bets add even more excitement.

Infinite Blackjack is a superb addition to our world’s best Live Blackjack portfolio. What's more, the massive scalability and unlimited fun comes in four different and exciting variants: Infinite Blackjack, Infinite Free Bet Blackjack, Power Blackjack, and Infinite Fun Fun 21 Blackjack.

HOW TO PLAY

Players take their virtual seat and try to achieve a hand that’s closer to 21 than the dealer’s hand without going over 21.

The game is played with eight standard 52-card decks.

The core game offers the usual Blackjack main bets, as well as the ‘Six Card Charlie’ rule and a range of side bets, all of which are explained below.

CARD VALUES
• Cards from 2 to 10 are worth their face value
• Face cards (Jacks, Queens and Kings) are each worth 10
• Aces are worth 1 or 11, whichever is more favourable to the hand. Note that a soft hand includes an Ace worth 11.

To start – place a bet on the main bet spot during the betting time. After the allotted betting time has expired, the dealer deals one card face-up to the trapdoor. Once the card falls down the trapdoor, it is displayed on the players’ screens. The dealer then deals one card face-up for themselves, followed by another face-up card for the players and one facedown card for the dealer. The value of the player’s hand is displayed on the screen next to their cards.

BLACKJACK
If the value of the player's initial two cards is exactly 21, they have Blackjack, and they win automatically if the dealer does not have a Blackjack. Blackjack is only possible using the two cards in the initial twocard deal.

INSURANCE
If the dealer’s up card is an Ace, the player can purchase ‘Insurance’ to offset the dealer’s Blackjack risk — even when the player has Blackjack. The ‘Insurance’ costs one-half of the player’s main bet, and the ‘Insurance’ bet is settled separately from the main bet on the player’s hand. The dealer then peeks at the value of their down card to check for Blackjack. If the dealer does not have Blackjack, the round continues.

If the dealer has Blackjack, but the player does not, and the player’s initial two-card hand value is 18 or more, the game is over, and the dealer’s hand wins. In this case, the players’ main bet is lost, but the ‘Insurance’ bet pays 2 to 1.

If the player’s initial two-card hand value totals less than 18, the dealer will continue to draw cards to give players the chance to win with the ‘Six Card Charlie’ rule. If the player and the dealer have Blackjack, the game ends in a push, and the player’s bet is returned. In this case, the players get their bet back, plus a 2 to 1 payout for the ‘Insurance’ bet if they have purchased it.

‘SIX CARD CHARLIE’ RULE
If a player’s hand ends up consisting of six cards with a total card value of 21 or less, then the player automatically wins the main bet, even if the dealer has Blackjack.

In the case of a split hand, each hand is evaluated individually.

MAKING A DECISION
As soon as the player receives their first two cards they can make an initial decision regarding their hand to ‘Hit’, ‘Stand’, ‘Double Down’ or ‘Split’.

If no decision is made before the betting time expires, a player’s lack of response is interpreted as a ‘Hit’ if the player’s score is 11 or less and a ‘Stand’ if it is 12 or more.

DOUBLE DOWN
If the value of the player’s initial hand is not lower than a hard 17, the player can decide to ‘Double Down’. In this case, the player’s bet is doubled, and they are dealt only one additional card to add to their hand. When players reach hard 17 or higher, the ‘Auto Stand’ option is applied to their hand.

HIT OR STAND
Alternatively, the player can decide to ‘Hit’ to be dealt an additional card to add to the value of their hand. The player can ‘Hit’ more than once to receive additional cards before reaching a hard 17 or more or deciding to stand once they are satisfied with the value of their hand. When players reach hard 17 or higher, the ‘Auto Stand’ option is applied to their hand.

SPLIT
When a player’s first two cards are of equal value, the player can choose to ‘Split’ them into two separate hands. If the player splits two Aces, they will receive just one additional card on each hand. No doubling is allowed.

DEALER’S HAND
When all players have made their decisions on their hands, the dealer reveals the value of their down card. The dealer must ‘Hit’ on a hand of 16 or less and must ‘Stand’ on a hand of soft 17 or more.

‘EARLY CASH OUT’
If the dealer does not have a Blackjack, the players can decide to use the ‘Early Cash Out’ option to forfeit their hand at any decision time. If the player uses the ‘Early Cash Out’ feature, part of their main bet is returned and the game will conclude for them. The payout for ‘Early Cash Out’ is determined by the cards that the player holds and the dealer’s opened card.

SURRENDER RULE*
Players can decide to 'Surrender' their cards after the first two initial cards are dealt and the dealer does not have a Blackjack. If the player decides to ‘Surrender’, the game will conclude for them, and half of their main bet will be returned.

* Surrender Rule applies only to Pennsylvania.

THE GAME OUTCOME
• The player wins when the value of their final hand is closer to 21 than the dealer’s hand, when the dealer busts, or when the player achieves a ‘Six Card Charlie’
• If the player’s hand value is the same as the dealer’s hand, the game round ends in a push, and the player’s main bet is returned
• If the player achieves a ‘Six Card Charlie’ they always win
• If the sum of the player’s hand exceeds 21, the player busts and loses their bet on that hand
• If the player decides to ‘Surrender’ or uses ‘Early Cash Out’, they receive their payout and end the game
• If the player decides to 'Surrender' or uses 'Early Cash Out', they receive a calculated payout of their bet back and end the game.
