🎭Duel Blackjack

Basic rules

Blackjack hands are scored by their point total. The hand with the highest total wins as long as it doesn't exceed 21; a hand with a higher total than 21 is a lost hand. Cards 2 through 10 are worth their face value, and face cards (jack, queen, king) are also worth 10. An ace's value is 11 unless this would cause the player to bust, in which case it is worth 1.

Unlike classic blackjack, where the goal is to beat the dealer, in Duel Blackjack, The goal of each player is to beat the other players at the table. The player in each round closest to 21 without getting 22 or higher wins the round.

In the case that 2 players or more end up at the same winning point, the pot is shared between those players.

If all players end up busting (hitting 22+), the pot is shared between all players.

MINIMUM BETS

Minimum bets will vary from table to table, ranging from 0.05 SOL to 10 SOL. Unlike Classic Blackjack, where players can choose their bet size, Duel Blackjack has a fixed limit where all players bet the same amount each round.

GAME PLAY

Each round starts with all players betting the set limit and receiving their 2 cards. The players can see both of their cards but only 1 of the other players' cards.

A timer of 30 sec then starts where all players have the option to either "Hit" (Get 1 more card) or "Stand" (Stop). Once all players have chosen "Stand", or the 30 sec timer runs out, all player's cards are revealed at the same time.

WIN CONDITIONS

  • The player that is closest to 21 wins

  • Any player hitting 22 or higher automatically loses

  • Any player hitting a Blackjack wins, regardless if other players hit 21

  • If more than 1 player ends up with the same winning count, the pot is split between those players

  • If all players bust (Hit 22+), the pot is shared between all players
