In this guide, we’ll cover everything you need to know about playing blackjack online at Roobet Casino, including rules, strategies, game variations, and top tips to improve your chances of winning.

What is Blackjack?

Blackjack is a fast-paced card game played between the player and the dealer. Unlike poker, you are not competing against other players—your goal is to beat the dealer’s hand without going over 21.

Card Values in Blackjack

• Aces = 1 or 11 (whichever benefits your hand)
• 2-9 = Face value
• 10, Jack, Queen, and King = 10 points

If your initial two cards add up to 21 (Ace + 10-value card), you have a Blackjack, which usually pays out at 3:2.

How to Play Blackjack Online

Playing blackjack online is straightforward and follows these simple steps:

Step 1: Place Your Bet

Before the game begins, decide how much you want to bet. Table limits vary, so always check the minimum and maximum bets before playing.

Step 2: Receive Your Cards

• You and the dealer are each dealt two cards.
• One of the dealer’s cards is face-up, while the other remains hidden (the “hole” card).

Step 3: Decide Your Move

Based on your hand and the dealer’s visible card, you have several options:

Action	Description	Hand Signal
Hit	Take another card to increase your hand total	Tap the table
Stand	Keep your current hand and end your turn	Wave your hand
Double Down	Double your bet and receive only one more card	Place extra chips next to your bet
Split	If dealt two identical cards, split them into two separate hands	Make a ‘V’ sign with fingers
Surrender	Give up your hand and lose only half your bet (available in some variations)	Say “surrender”
Insurance	Side bet if the dealer’s face-up card is an Ace	Place half your original bet separately

Step 4: Dealer’s Turn

• The dealer must hit until they reach 17 or higher.
• If the dealer goes over 21, all remaining players win automatically.

Step 5: Determine the Winner

• If your hand is higher than the dealer’s without exceeding 21, you win 1:1.
• If you have Blackjack, you win 3:2 (unless the dealer also has Blackjack, in which case it’s a push).
• If the dealer wins, you lose your bet.

Blackjack Betting Options & Payouts

Winning Hand	1:1	~0.5% (varies by game)

Blackjack Strategies & Tips

While blackjack is a game of chance, you can use strategy to improve your odds.

1. Learn Basic Blackjack Strategy

The best way to reduce the house edge is to follow a Blackjack Strategy Chart, which tells you the optimal move based on your hand and the dealer’s card.

2. Use the Right Betting System

Some players use betting strategies to manage their bankroll, including:

• Martingale – Double your bet after every loss.
• Fibonacci – Follow a numerical sequence for bet sizing.
• Paroli – Double your bet after a win.

3. Avoid the Insurance Bet

The insurance bet is tempting when the dealer shows an Ace, but the odds are not in your favour. Over time, this bet will cost you money.

4. Manage Your Bankroll

• Set a budget before you start playing.
• Know when to walk away.
• Play at lower-stake tables to stretch your bankroll.

5. Take Advantage of Bonuses & Promotions

Many online casinos offer blackjack bonuses, such as:

• Deposit Matches – Extra money to play with.
