European Blackjack

How to play European Blackjack

Two-deck blackjack with no hole card. Double on 9 to 11, split once, dealer stands on soft 17.

European Blackjack is dealt from two decks with no hole card, so the dealer takes a second card only after you finish your hand. You may double on totals of 9 to 11 and split once, and the dealer stands on soft 17. With no hole card, doubling or splitting against a dealer Ace or ten carries more risk, so basic strategy differs from the six-deck game. The listed RTP is 99.4% with correct strategy. Every shoe is provably fair.

RTP and house edge

European Blackjack has a theoretical return to player (RTP) of 99.4%, which is a house edge of 0.6%. RTP is a long-run average over a very large number of rounds, not a guarantee for any session.

Provably fair

Every round of European Blackjack is generated from a secret server seed, a client seed you can change and a nonce, combined with HMAC-SHA256. The hash of the server seed is shown before you play. When you start a new seed the old one is revealed, so you can recalculate and verify each result yourself. Provably Fair — Verify Every Result
