How to Play ONE Blackjack
In general, you play ONE Blackjack the same way as other live blackjack games online. The game starts with the dealer giving 2 cards to the player (both face up) and 2 cards to themselves (1 face up, 1 face down). The objective of the game is to reach 21 by taking additional cards if necessary without going over 21 (which means going bust).
1 Blackjack is played wit 8 decks of 52 cards each. The cards have different values:
- 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 count their face value.
- 10, Jack (J),Queen(Q) and King (K) all count 10.
- The Ace (A) can either be a 1 or 11.
The best combinations are an Ace plus 10, J, Q or K as this sums up to 21 and therefore is a Blackjack.
Any combination of an Ace with a number value card (2-9) is a soft hand.
ONE Blackjack Options
After dealing the initial 2 cards each player has the option to decide on their next move. You have the following options: Stand, Hit, Double Down or Split.
If you are happy with the hand points you have or are worried you might go bust then you can “stand” and will hence not get more additional cards.
Alternatively you can “hit” and therefore receive extra cards until you decide to stand, have a BJ or go over (bust). If your first 2 cards allow it you can double down. This one-off move allows you to double your bet in the middle of a hand. Afterwards, you will get one more card only and do not have the chance to hit again afterwards. This option can be quite profitable and is often recommended when your initial cards sum up to 11 and the dealer has to stand at 17 which is the case in 1 Blackjack.
Lastly, if your initial 2 cards are the same value (including Aces) you can decide to split your cards into 2 individual hands. This gives you 2 then 2 chances to get a blackjack. You will then receive an additional card for each of your hands and can “stand” or “hit” afterwards. One exemption applies for splitting Aces as in this case you can’t hit again after receiving the extra card.
For the main Blackjack game the suits of the cards is not important but this changes for the side bets.
With unlimited players allowed to participate each players makes their own decision and the card values relevant to each player will be displayed in the game interface.
Main settings

Aside from the classic betting types Pragmatic Play has included 4 different, interesting side bets to ONE Blackjack:
Special Features
Crazy 7: you bet on the possibility that your first three cards will be sevens (trip 7’s). Even better if these are from the same suit as this will bring you a max. payout of 2000:1.
Bust Bonus: you can bet on the dealer’s hand busting. The payout and hence winning potential increases with the amount of cards the dealer draws: Bust with 8 cards pays 250:1, with 7 cards 100:1, with 6 cards 50:1 with 5 cards 9:1, with 4 cards 2:1 and with 3 cards 1:1.
21+3, one of the most popular side bets that mixes blackjack with poker. The player’s 2 initial cards and the dealer’s face up card are considered for this bet. There are 5 different options with different payouts. Firstly, a Flush, 3 cards of the same suit, pays 5:1. Secondy, Straight which means the 3 cards have consecutive value but different suit pays 10:11. Thirdly, the Straight Flush, the combination of the first two and therefore 3 cards with consecutive value of the same suit, pays 40:1. Fourthly, Three of a Kind which means 3 cards of the same value pays 30:1. And lastly Suited Trips which pays out 100:1 if you bet correctly that the 3 cards are the same value and same suit.
Perfect Pairs: this additional bet allows you to bet on the initial 2 cards given being a pair. The payout varies with the kind of pair. A mixed pair pays 6:1, a coloured pair 12:1 and the perfect pair (same suit) 25:1.
There is more! The game features a special built-in rule called Six Card Charlie. If a player manages to draw 6 cards without going bust then he/she is automatically a winner.
