Game Rules & Strategy

The basic rules of Classic Blackjack Gold are simple. A player will have to get a hand worth 21 or less that has a value greater than what the dealer holds. The player can also win if that person gets a hand of 21 or less and the dealer busts by going over 21. This game in the Classic Blackjack Gold series provides multiple ways for people to play.

  • Number of Decks: This is a single-deck game with 52 cards. The deck is shuffled before each game.
  • House Rules: The dealer will receive one face-up card at the start, while the player gets two face-up cards.
  • When to Hit or Stand: A player can hit or stand at varying points in a game. The dealer and player can both get a hand of up to 11 cards. The dealer will stand on all 17s.
  • Payouts: A standard win results in a 1:1 payout, while a blackjack offers a 3:2 payout.
  • When to Double: The player can double down on the first two cards if it is a hard hand worth 9, 10, or 11. The player will receive one card, and the hand then holds.
  • Hard Totals: The best thing to do on a hard total is to double down if the hand is a 9, 10, or 11. The player can also hit if the dealer’s card is 7 or higher in value.
  • Soft Totals: Doubling down is ideal when the dealer’s card is a 4, 5, or 6. For cases where the hand is 18 or higher, the player should stand.
  • When to Surrender: Classic Blackjack Gold doesn’t have a surrender option.

Betting Expert Techniques

  • Splitting: The player can split one’s cards if they are of the same denomination. Each resulting hand will receive one card, and the results will stand. Any situation where a player gets a 21 will count as a regular hand and not as a blackjack. This Classic Blackjack Gold strategy works best for players with two 8s, 9s, 10-value cards, or aces.
  • Insurance: A player can also take an insurance bet worth half the value of the regular bet in cases where the dealer’s first card is an ace. Insurance only covers the initial hand and not split hands. The insurance will pay out at 2:1 if the dealer gets a blackjack. This bet is an optional choice for players to protect themselves from cases where the dealer might get a blackjack.
