Live Blackjack

Live Blackjack Online in Ireland

Blackjack is one of the most popular online casino games worldwide and has been for centuries. The game is typically played with up to seven players at a table, but the game’s goal is to beat the dealer, not the other players. For this reason, it’s one of the most fun games you can play in Ireland because it’s the only mode that allows you to see the dealer in front of you. If you want to try out live blackjack in Ireland, our guide will give you all the information you need.

What Is Live Blackjack?

Put simply, live dealer blackjack is the real-time version of online blackjack. Like all online live casino games, the best online live blackjack games provide an immersive, authentic casino atmosphere you can enjoy from home.

The live blackjack casino platform provides an entirely different experience from its online counterpart, a computer-generated game that uses RNG because everything happens live. Live dealer blackjack online is live streamed from different casino live game studios, designed to look a lot like a casino floor, with real tables, equipment, and, of course, a real croupier sitting in front of the camera.

With multiple cameras and angles in play, you can follow each step of the game closely to see the cards being dealt from the shoe, the dealer turning over their cards, and a zoomed-in view of the dealer’s hand, for example.

The live casino experience is as realistic as possible for a virtual game. Live games include a social feature where you can communicate with the dealer and other players via a chat box.

What Live Blackjack Games Are Available at Betiton Ireland?

Betiton offers 60 live blackjack games with a real dealer, many of which are variants of the classic game and others with different table limits or themes. Let’s look at some games you can play at the best live blackjack casino in Ireland.

Free Bet Blackjack

This popular variant slightly switches up regular blackjack rules because you can double down or split for free on specific hands. In contrast, you must place an additional wager equal to your original bet in regular blackjack.

Infinite Blackjack

Infinite Blackjack is another variation with the same rules as standard blackjack, but the difference is that there’s no limit to how many players can sit at the table. This version offers unlimited seats, but the rest of the rules are the same as the standard version.

Power Blackjack

The Power Blackjack game variant removes the nines and tens from the deck. The game is very similar to the standard one, but it comes with some additional rules that allow for tripling and even quadrupling your initial bet.

Lightning Blackjack

Lightning Blackjack is the most well-known live blackjack game from Evolution Gaming and is very popular at Betiton Casino. In this game, players have a chance to win multipliers of up to 25x on their hand, but it should be noted that a mandatory Lightning Fee is added to your regular bet.

Speed Blackjack

If you want an ever faster-paced game, Speed Blackjack might be fun to try out. In this game, you have more control over the pace because you don’t need to wait for other players to make their decisions. The player who decides to hit first will get their card first.

There are a few basic rules to keep in mind whenever you join a live blackjack table, which we’ve summarised below:

• Eight standard 52-card decks are used in most games.
• Betting time is limited. Once the dealer announces that bets are closed, no more bets will be accepted.
• The dealer deals two cards, facing up, to each player and themselves.
• One of the dealer’s cards remains hidden until every player has played their hand.
• If you get a blackjack with your initial two cards, that’s known as a natural, and you get a payout of 3:2.
• If you go over 21, you bust, and you’ll be out of the game immediately.
• If you and the dealer have the same hand value, this results in a push.In this case, your bet will be refunded.
• To beat the dealer, you need to get a higher hand total than theirs without going over 21. If you do, you get a payout of 2:1.
• Additional side bets are also available in most tables, and the option to bet behind other players in some games.
• Only real money bets can be placed in live blackjack casino games.

Live Blackjack Types of Bets at Betiton Ireland

Placing your bet is very straightforward because the most important thing you need to do is decide how much you want your stake to be. Other types of bets are possible, but the main bet to join the table is the only mandatory one.

Live Blackjack Main Bets

The regular bet is the only one required to play the game and join the table. Remember, live casino blackjack can only be played with real money, so you can’t join the game without placing a stake. Throughout the game, you also have the option to increase your initial bet and take additional cards, depending on the cards you’re dealt. The rules for placing additional bets, doubling, or splitting can vary depending on the type of game you’re playing, so it’s important to check the game rules first.

Below is a list of the main bets you can place in most games:

• Regular
• Double Down
• Ante

Live Blackjack Side Bets

You might have heard of side bets when learning how to play live casino blackjack. While they can be interesting to try, side bets offer high payouts but come with low odds.

Below is a list of side bets you can bet on in most games:

• 21+3
• Perfect Pairs
• Pair Square
• Royal Match
• Lucky Ladies
• Super Sevens
