Microgaming Makes Blackjack with a Twist into a Huge
Hit
Blackjack is one of the most popular of
all games that can be found at a casino whether it be
online or in person at a traditional brick and mortar
casino.
Microgaming is one of the leading online
casino software providers and is world renowned for
its innovative technology and creativity.
When you combine the great game of blackjack
with an awesome online gaming software developer such
as Microgaming the possibilities become unlimited.
While it has become a great challenge
for many online casino software providers to come up
with new twists on blackjack Microgaming has done just
that with a highly entertaining and effective enhancement
that has drawn significant praise as well as increased
traffic.
Microgaming’s blackjack twist allows
players to make a side bet but only if they are also
involved in the actual game itself. The side bet is
for additional action for players in the blackjack game
that think that they can maximize their potential winnings
or perhaps even hedge.
The side bet is based on a calculation
of the hand value that is done based on the first two
cards that are dealt to the player within normal blackjack
rules with one exception being that the ace can only
count as 1 and not also 11.
The three side bets are hi 13, low 13
and 13. The 13 hi and 13 low will pay out at even money
while the straight exact 13 pays out at 10/1 odds.
This added strategy and excitement to
an already popular game has proven to be a big hit with
blackjack players and enhances Microgaming’s status
as a leading industry innovator.
