Blackjack Switch

Let’s take a look at the most common house rules when playing Blackjack Switch. 

• Blackjack Dealers will check for blackjack when showing an Ace or 10. 

• When you switch for a blackjack, it will count as 21. 

• Players can double down after splitting. 

• Blackjack pays 1:1, not 3:2. 

• Dealer hits soft 17. 

• A dealer's hand of 22 pushes against players' hands of 21 or less.

The blackjack odds are fairly good when playing Blackjack Switch. The house edge when using basic playing and switching strategies is around 0.58%. This is reduced even further if the dealer stands on soft 17, with the house edge being as low as 0.28% when playing basic blackjack strategy.

Blackjack Switch is a unique variation of the game, and, as such, you will want to make sure you understand how to play it first. One of the top blackjack tips when playing Blackjack Switch is to play for free first, if possible. This is because the switching element of the game can take some adjustment, and it is good to practise. The fact the dealer's hand can push on 22 is also something that is going to be entirely different from other games.

Of course, we also want to remind players to practise caution and make sure they are sticking within their limits and not chasing losses.
