Super 21
Super 21
We conclude our Blackjack review of the new games at the new US-Blackjack with a look at Super 21. Played in exactly the same way as normal blackjack, Super 21 has a number of interesting features and payout variations.
The most obvious difference is that Blackjack pays even money (as opposed to 3:2 on normal variations). In addition there is a “Surrender” button where you accept half your stake back and give up the hand. This latter feature puts a really interesting twist on the game. You can also play after a double, so if you (say) double 10 and get a 6 you might consider surrendering rather than risking all against the dealer’s 9.
There are some other quirky rules in the game. Multi card 21 hands payout more and a “Diamond Blackjack” pays out 2:1 – your first two cards must be 21 with both being diamonds. The full pay table is below:
|
Winner |
Hand | Payouts |
| Player | Diamond Blackjack | 2:1 (first hand only) |
| Player | Blackjack | Even Money (first hand only) |
| Dealer | Blackjack | None |
| Player | Five-card 21 | 2:1 (non-doubled hands only) |
| Player | Six-card 21 | 2:1 (non-doubled hands only) |
| Player | Six-card 20 or less (instant win) | Even Money (non-doubled hands only) |
| Player | Other Winning Hands | Even Money |
| Dealer/Player Tie | Other Hands | Push |
