Even if you consider yourself to be knowledgeable when it comes to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.com\/blackjack\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">online blackjack<\/a>, learning about the different variations can open you up to a whole new world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the best variations that you can find on this classic game when you gamble online. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">American Blackjack<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh7-us.googleusercontent.com\/X_w6pcC4YcY7aCPLpUzzcvmA80qaMKPB9vOjwBW9cPTItMOSdHIyiHgwEZ-_hHnU6vP1uJdrEMbh43t_M8SZ4laZbPM9NTf0c102r3Z_X2C8pSxI1HJWC2ljg0AKglRRpnEw5MSm9V1uBG0Thard5s5qI-HewkIy\" alt=\"American Blackjack: Better Odds to Beat the Dealer | PokerNews\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the basic, \u201cclassic\u201d version of blackjack. It is one of the most known and popular types of blackjack to be found at online casinos. The goal is simple: get to 21 without going over. Classic blackjack is easily understandable, one of the appealing aspects of the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on the site, 2-4 decks are in use. The dealer will hit on soft 17 and will also check for blackjack. Doubling and splitting are allowed with up to two of the latter being allowed. It is simple, straight to the point, and easy for anyone to pick up in no time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">European Blackjack<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh7-us.googleusercontent.com\/kPuyQy8jsA1Mul5PentDj1imLrrPYtHSKUn0rxVsaG1c1MQX_RKDwPny1UY_qQ4Dj38b8PepVWQlju-UHsaRe2XRqisL6gYXhdyMt_QQG1wxT8wr-CfTRX26g1fGKdKcJbEw5ZIiEco227VflkYUWRWUtFSkZqBk\" alt=\"European Blackjack - Betsoft Online Casino Games\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>European blackjack makes use of two decks, which is a big difference, as well as the dealer standing on a soft 17. The dealer is also not allowed to check for blackjack, a major departure from classic blackjack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If both the dealer and player get blackjack, it is a push. Doubling down is only available when the total is 9, 10, or 11 and players can only double after splitting. With minor tweaks, players can transition seamlessly from American blackjack to its European counterpart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Multi-hand Blackjack<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh7-us.googleusercontent.com\/eqoMl0TC2I_mPXUYhWnmRskDkZn8LuVEcVevKnoy_36bjcewImxHySLhNb4S_JY39zkkEqLvmogAW_YOxZKD-KDLiDp-3M3Ia1LhObUsESihi9FKtdLC-ANsGRTEzU7c3VyaKJjPM9XJwey1ODV0gU4KHYYkNsJO\" alt=\"Play Free Multihand Blackjack Game\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Multi-hand blackjack is just as it sounds. In this variation, players are able to play multiple hands at one time, typically maxing out at three. It is considered to be one of the most preferred blackjack variation at online casinos today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a few key reasons why this version stands out. For starters, the dealer doesn\u2019t check for blackjack. Players are only able to double when the total is 9, 10, or 11. The dealer will stand on a soft 17 instead of hitting. Finally, players can only split once. In any event, it provides a lot more chances to enjoy blackjack and win<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blackjack fans may not be aware that there are other variations to choose from.
