Live Blackjack UK

Blackjack is a casino game that puts the player against the dealer. So while the introduction of online blackjack was convenient, it lacked what many players consider the key interaction in a game of blackjack, which a physical casino offers.

That’s where live blackjack comes in.

Instead of playing against a Random Number Generator (RNG), playing live dealer blackjack online sees you play against a real dealer that is shuffling and dealing cards in real-time.

How To Play Live Dealer Blackjack

Live casino blackjack plays out much the same as standard games of blackjack. The aim is to have a hand with a total value that is higher than the dealer’s without going over 21 – this is called going bust and results in an automatic loss.

In blackjack, it’s just you against the dealer. All the other players at the table are also playing against the dealer.

You place your bet, and then you receive two cards face-up while the dealer receives one card face-up and one face-down.

The value of the two cards added together is what your hand is worth. The cards 2-10 are all worth their face value, royals are worth 10, and aces can be worth 1 or 11.

During your turn, you have two choices, you can ‘Hit’, which means to request another card to be added to your hand, or you can ‘Stand’, which means to end your turn with your hand as it is.

If you Hit and your total comes to over 21, you go bust and lose your bet. 

If you Stand, the dealer then reveals their hole card (face-down card) and compares their hand to yours. If their hand is higher, you lose your bet. If yours is higher, the dealer has to Hit until they go bust, or they end up with a higher hand.

Most blackjack games have a rule on whether the dealer always Stands or Hits on 17, so be sure to check this rule before playing.

If the dealer goes bust or your hand is higher when they have to stand, you win.

The only difference is if you play live blackjack, instead of playing against a Random Number Generator (RNG) – like in online blackjack – there is a real dealer that is shuffling and dealing cards at a table. This footage is then live-streamed to your device.

You place your bets and make any decisions using the display on your screen, and the dealer receives this information and responds accordingly.

Live Casino Blackjack FAQs

Can you count cards in live online blackjack?

Counting cards would be very difficult in live online blackjack since they often use 2 multi-deck shoes in a game. The dealer draws from one to keep the game going whilst the other is being shuffled by another member of staff or an automatic shuffler. 

So keeping track of the cards in the game, and those being shuffled, is extremely difficult.

Is online live blackjack rigged?

No, online live blackjack is not rigged. It is live-streamed to players’ devices, so everything is happening in real-time, the shuffling, dealing, all of it can be seen by the players.

Also, blackjack – like all casino games – has a house edge, which is a built-in advantage in favour of the casino. This is how they make a profit in the long run, so they don’t need to rig the games.

How do you win at online live blackjack?

Winning in online blackjack occurs the same way as in any other form of blackjack. Have a hand with a higher total value than the dealer, but without going over 21.
