Spanish 21 Multi Hand Blackjack uses 8 decks of 48 cards - the Tens
are removed from the deck. This is a new multi hand version of the single hand
game that has been available at Microgaming casinos for a few years now. Up to
five hands can be played simultaneously. It is a hole card game, which means
that the dealer will check for blackjack if he holds a face card or an Ace. If
he holds blackjack, the game is over.
Spanish 21 Multi-hand Blackjack awards the Player payout Bonus in the
event that the Player reaches 21. The Bonus amount is dependent on the number of
cards taken to reach 21. Bonuses are not applicable if the hand was split, or
doubled.
