Party Blackjack – Free Demo Play

Party Blackjack is one of the numerous variants of traditional blackjack that can be found at online casinos. This version is very similar to the original game, but it still has several features that make it different. It is definitely fun to try a new game in this genre for a change, but the question is whether it is beneficial enough to play it day after day.

How to Play Party Blackjack?

The goal of this blackjack is the same as in any other version. A player should have a hand that beats the dealer’s hand and has a value that is either 21 or the closest number to 21.

As soon as the bet is placed, the dealer gives two cards to all players and himself or herself. If any player has blackjack, he or she receives a payout of 6:5. However, this rule does not work if the first card of a dealer is Ace or 10.

After that, each player takes one of the following decisions:

• Double the value of the hand. It is advisable to do this only if the value of the hand is 10 or less.
• Hit to receive an extra card.
• Stand and continue playing with the initial hand.
• Split and play with two hands. This is possible only if the hand consists of a pair.
