Blackjack Super 7's Description
Blackjack Super 7 is a variation
of the most popular casino card game in the world.
The name Blackjack arose when an American casino
decided to popularise the game by paying a bonus
to any player holding the ace of spades and either
the jack of clubs or jack of spades. The object
of the game is simple – obtain a total
card count higher than that of the dealer without
exceeding 21.

Blackjack Super 7s uses a six deck shoe that is
reshuffled after each hand.
You can play up to three hands at once.
If your hand is greater
than the dealer’s
and does not go over 21, you win.
The face cards—jack, queen and king—all
have a value of 10, aces have a value of 1 or
11, and the remaining cards are worth their face
value.
If your hand exceeds 21,
you bust and
automatically lose the hand. If you have the
same card total as the dealer, there is no winner
and your bet is returned. This is known as a
push.
The dealer stands on 17 and above and draws
on 16 and below.
If the dealer’s
face-up card is an ace, you can buy insurance.
The optional Super 7s bet lets you wager on
whether the first card dealt to you is a 7.
Blackjack Terms
| Term |
Definition |
| Blackjack |
A two-card hand of 21 points. |
| Bust |
A hand in Blackjack that goes over 21.
If you bust, you lose. |
| Double |
Allows you to double your initial bet.
The bet is placed after the first two cards
are dealt. Only double your bet when you
are reasonably sure you will only need
one more card to win. Your bet will be
placed automatically and you will be dealt
one last card. Your hand will always consist
of three cards when doubling. This is also
known as doubling down. |
| Face-up card |
The card in the dealer’s hand that
is face up for you to see before you play
your hand. This is also known as the open
card or up card. |
| Hard hand |
Any hand that does not contain an ace
or a hand that contains one or more aces
that count as only one point. |
| Hit |
To ask the dealer for another card. |
| Insurance |
If a dealer is dealt an ace face up,
you may buy insurance. You are buying
insurance against the dealer’s
odds of having Blackjack. Insurance is
a side bet that equals half your original
wager.
If the dealer is dealt an ace face
up and has Blackjack, it is an automatic
loss and the round ends. If you placed
an insurance bet, you are paid back
at odds of 2:1. This payment equals
your original bet.
If you have placed an insurance bet
and the dealer does not have Blackjack,
you lose your insurance bet, but retain
your original wager and continue to play. |
| Natural |
A two-card hand of 21 points. This is
known as Blackjack. |
| Push |
A tie hand between you and the dealer.
A push occurs when you and the dealer have
unbusted hands with the same total points. |
| Soft
hand |
Any hand that contains an ace that can
be counted as 11. For example, an ace and
a 6 is known as a soft 17. |
| Split |
If you are dealt two cards of identical
value, you can split them into two new
hands of one card each. Each new hand
can then be played out in turn.
You may only split a hand once. The
wager placed on each new hand is equal
to the original bet. You may double down
on one or both of your new hands. When
aces are split, only one card is dealt
to each new hand. A split hand resulting
in blackjack pays out at 1:1 rather
than the normal 3:2. |
| Stand |
To be satisfied with your hand and refuse
another card. |
