American Blackjack - Novomatic

American Blackjack is an adaptation of Novomatic's traditional blackjack game that gives players a chance to put their skills to the test in one of casino's most popular card games. This version of blackjack uses standard rules specific to American poker, with the ability to double the bet, split cards and insurance.

The game begins with the player placing a bet and receiving two cards. The dealer also receives two cards, one of which opens. The player's task is to collect a hand that will be as close as possible to 21 points, not exceeding this value. Aces are scored as 1 or 11, while cards with an image are scored as 10 points. If the sum of the points on the hands of the player and the dealer is 21, this is called blackjack, and the player receives a payment depending on the bet.

American Blackjack has several key features:

- Insurance: Players can place an additional bet on insurance if the dealer has an ace card open. If the dealer turns out to have blackjack, insurance helps to return part of the bet.

- Doubling: If a player has a strong hand, they can double their bid with only one extra card.

- Split: If a player receives two identical cards, they can split them into two separate hands and continue with the extra bet.

Players can choose whether to accept an additional card or stay with the current combination. The "Pass" function is also available to refuse to play and lose half of the bet if the hand is too weak.

The main goal of the game is to defeat the dealer by collecting the amount of cards close to 21, but not exceeding it. If a player's hand exceeds 21, they lose their bid.

Novomatic's American Blackjack recreates the atmosphere of a classic casino with high-quality graphics and simple rules, making it an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced players looking to try their luck and demonstrate their skills in blackjack.
