Blackjack Amsterdam Basics: Rules & Gameplay

Blackjack Amsterdam follows industry-standard classic Vegas-like blackjack rules with a 7-seat setup and 8 decks, each containing 52 cards. The goal is to beat the dealer by having a hand value of 21 or as close to 21 as possible without going over. Each player receives 2 cards initially, with cards carrying the following values:

Numerical cards (2 through 10) have values equal to their face value.
Face cards (jacks, queens, or kings) count as 10.
The Ace can be either 1 or 11, depending on which value benefits the player more.

After receiving their initial cards, players have the following choices:

Hit – Take another card.
Stand – Keep the current cards.
Split – Separate a pair of cards into 2 hands (if the initial cards are of the same rank).
Double Down – Double the bet and receive 1 more card.

In Blackjack Amsterdam, the game begins with the dealer revealing 1 face-up card and 1-face down card. After you’ve made your bet, the dealer must follow specific rules:

If the dealer’s hand value is under 17, they must hit.
If the dealer’s hand value is 17 or higher, they must stand.
In some cases, the dealer must hit on a soft 17 (a hand that includes an Ace).

Once the dealer completes their turn, the player’s hands are compared to the dealer’s:

If a player’s total exceeds 21, it’s a bust, and they lose immediately
If the dealer busts, all remaining players win.
If the dealer doesn’t bust, the player with the highest hand value (without exceeding 21) wins.
A tie results in a push, and the player’s bet is returned.

Six Card Charlie Rule

With the Six Card Charlie rule, if you manage to obtain 6 cards without exceeding 21, you win regardless of the dealer’s hand. The house edge associated with the Six Card Charlie rule is an impressive 0.16%, resulting in a remarkable 99.84% RTP (Return to Player)!
