Blackjack Switch uses 6 normal decks consisting of 52 cards each. The
decks form a shoe and the entire shoe is shuffled before each hand is commenced.
The dealer is forced to stand on a soft 17, and Blackjack beats a hand with
a value of 21.
Blackjack Switch
Blackjack Switch is a different version of blackjack, where all cards
are dealt face up and the Player receives 2 hands. The Switch rule allows the
player to switch the second dealt card between the two hands in order to improve
one or both. This introduces a couple of further differences. Firstly, a Dealer
Blackjack beats a Player Blackjack. Secondly, if the Dealer gets 22, it ties
with a Player total of 21 or below. However, a Player Blackjack beats a Dealer
22.

Splitting Rules
You can split any pair
If you Split a pair of Aces and then you draw a card with a 10 value, this
is not accepted to be a Blackjack, even though the total is 21
You do not have the option of Re-Splitting on any hand
If you decide to split a pair of Aces, each hand will then receive one more
card and then you must Stand.
Double Down Rules
You can only Double Down on your first 2 cards
The value of the Double Down bet is the same as your original bet
You can Double Down after you have decided to Split
You cannot Double Down on a Blackjack
Once you have Doubled Down, your hand/s will only receive one more card
and then they Stand.
Insurance Rules
You are offered the option of taking an Insurance bet whenever the Dealer is
showing an Ace. The Insurance bet amounts to half of your initial bet. The Insurance
bet pays out at odds of 2:1 If the Dealer actually is not holding a Blackjack,
you forfeit the Insurance bet amount.
