Vegas Single Deck: The #1 Online Blackjack at Red Casino

Hiya gamers, did you know Red Casino features multiple online blackjack games?  Some are direct from Vegas, others are from Atlantic City.  The trick is to find the option with rules favorable to y’all.  Now here is a spit of good news.  Vegas Single Deck may jest be that game!

Key Features of Vegas Single Deck Blackjack

Now if you are anything like us’uns, you know your online blackjack.  In fact, y’all were probably playing the game when you were knee high to a grasshopper.  The reason being is its dead easy gameplay.  It’s so easy, even a lame brain can git it right!

The objective in all online blackjack variants available at Red Casino is exactly the same.  That is to accumulate a hand totalling 21 or as close to 21 as you can git… without going bust, which as ya’ll know, is going over 21.  Then of course there is that small matter of beating the dealer in the process.

When you do that, y’all win even money.  Hit a natural blackjack – an ace and 10 value card in the first two cards you are dealt – and that is when the greenbacks start coming your way!  In Vegas Single Deck, you are paid the standard 3 to 2 odds for a blackjack.

What makes this particular variant slightly different from the norm, is the single deck element.  In this here online casino game, only one standard 52-card deck is in the virtual shoe.  In most other online blackjack games, there are between 6 and 8 decks in play.

The Impact of the Single Deck

This small modification to the rules has a marked effect on the house edge.  When you play Vegas Single Deck according to the best play strategy, the advantage to Red Casino is a teeny-weeny 0.15%.  Now that really is something darn tootin’ to get excited about!

What it means is over the longer term, y’all have a fair chance of winning back your entire bankroll.  Do the maths and for every dollar you wager right here at Red Casino, you get more than 99 cents back.  Now why don’t y’all share the news with your bubba, pappa and the rest of the kin?

Here is something else to celebrate.  The brick-and-mortar casinos in Las Vegas aren’t nearly as generous with their payouts.  In fact, in real-world Nevada, the odds for a blackjack plummet to as low as 6 to 5!  Yep, cancel your Vegas trip and stick to Red Casino instead.

Why would we say that?  Well, that’s plain simple.  Those there 6 to 5 odds ain't no insignificant disparity.  Heck no!  It translates to a heap of money that should be yours… but instead, it stays with the gaming operators!

Before y’all have a hissy fit and complain about what you can win playing Vegas Single Deck Blackjack at Red Stag Casino, settle down folks.  Our real money rewards are a whole lot better than what you can get right now Downtown and on The Strip!

There is another factor that deserves a special mention.  In this variation, as with many other online blackjack games, the dealer offers y’all insurance when his up card is a 10 or an ace.  Since we are talking gambling and not business, you may want to know what insurance is.

The Insurance Bet in Online Blackjack

Well, insurance is effectively an optional side bet that you can take to mitigate against potential losses.  The bet only pays out when the dealer has a blackjack.  It is a kind of counterweight to the initial ante bet.

Considering the probability of the dealer’s hole card being a 10, it may seem like a no-brainer to cover yourself for that eventuality.  After all, don’t we ‘uns spend a small fortune every month on vehicle insurance, medical insurance and householder’s insurance?

That may well be true but, in this instance, insurance is not what it appears to be.  The clue is in the theoretical edge this particular bet gives us a lot at Red Casino.  In the single deck game, the advantage to the house is a whopping 5.9%. That is not a bet anybody with half a brain would even consider.  Neither should all y’all!

As for the rest of the rules, well, they are pretty unremarkable.  The dealer hits on soft 17 and checks for blackjack when he shows an ace or 10 value card.  Y’all can double down when the first two cards you are dealt equal 9, 10 or 11.

Doubling is permitted after the split.  The only exception is split aces.  You cain’t double down and you can only draw one more card to split aces.

The one anomaly in the WGS developed Vegas Single Deck Blackjack is the payout for insurance.  In most online blackjack variants, the standard payout is 2 to 1.  At Red Casino, you get 3 to 1.  That is only when the dealer gets blackjack, mind you!
