DOUBLE EXPOSURE BLACKJACK

Double Exposure Blackjack is played with eight decks of cards. The dealer must hit on soft 17. You may double down only on a hand of 9, 10, or 11. You may split up to three times, you may split unlike 10-value cards, and you can double down after splitting. Split aces may receive only one more card.
The most significant change to the standard rules of blackjack is that both of the dealer’s cards are exposed. This gives you, the player, a tremendous advantage when you play blackjack.

There are also some blackjack rule changes that are advantageous to the dealer. This is only right, if you think about it. If the online casino creates a rule that benefits the player, it is only fair that it should also make a rule that benefits the dealer, in order that the blackjack game should be fair and balanced without too much advantage to either side.

One such rule is that the dealer wins on all ties, except that the player wins on tied blackjack. The other one is that a player’s blackjack pays even money, instead of the standard 3-to-2 payout. These are clearly disadvantageous from the player’s point of view, but they are the rules that the Double Exposure Blackjack player must live with in order to gain the advantage of seeing the dealer’s two cards.
