Online Blackjack

Blackjack has been around the casino floor for donkey’s years, and honestly it is still one of the finest card games you can sit down to. Here at Fortune Mobile Casino, we have brought the whole thing straight onto your phone, so there is no need to go anywhere at all. You just pull out your device, tap open a table, and away you go. The idea of the game is dead simple when you boil it right down. You are trying to get your cards to add upto a total that sits closer to 21 than whatever the dealer is holding, and the moment you go past 21 you have gone bust and that hand is lost. That much most people already know. The clever bit, the part that keeps folks coming back night after night, is everything that happens in between.

Getting To Grips With Card Values

Before you place a single bet it does help to know what each card is actually worth, because blackjack counts them in its own particular way. The number cards, that is your 2 right through to your 10, they simply carry the value printed on the face of them. A 7 is worth seven, a 9 is worth nine, nothing tricky there at all. Then you have got your picture cards, the Jack, the Queen and the King, and every single one of these is counted as ten. The Ace is the interesting one, on account of it can be worth either 1 or 11, whichever number happens to do you a better turn in that moment. So an Ace sitting next to a King is not eleven, it is a lovely twenty-one, and that my friend is a blackjack. If you want the full breakdown of how each card stacks up we have put together a proper guide on card values and hand values that goes into every last detail.

How A Round Actually Plays Out

Right, so once you are seated at one of our tables the flow of a hand is pretty much always the same, and it does not take long to pick up. You put down your stake first. The dealer then deals two cards to you and two to themselves, though one of the dealer’s cards stays face down where you cannot see it, which is what makes the whole thing a bit of a guessing game. Now it is your call. You can ask for another card, which the tables call a hit, and you can keep hitting for as long as you like, really, until either you are happy with your total or you push past 21 and bust. When you reckon you have got enough, you stand, meaning you stick with what you have and pass it over to the dealer. The dealer after that has to play by a fixed rule, they keep drawing untill they reach at least 17 and then they must stop. Whoever ends up closest to 21 without going over takes the hand. A natural blackjack, an Ace and a ten-value card right off the deal, usually pays out at 3 to 2, which is a tidier return than an ordinary win. If any of the wider table etiquette is new to you, our rundown of the general casino table game rules is worth a quick read before you get stuck in.

The Starting Hands That Help And The Ones That Hurt

Not every pair of cards you are dealt is going to fill you with joy, and part of playing a sensible game is knowing the difference. The dream, obviously, is that natural blackjack we just spoke about, you cannot really do any better than that. After that a hard 20, which is two ten-value cards sitting side by side, is a mighty strong spot to be in and most of the time you would just stand and be glad of it. A pair of Aces is another one you want to see, alot of players will split those into two hands and give themselves two fresh chances at it. On the other side of the coin there are the awkward totals, the hard 16 being the one everybody groans at, since it is too high to feel safe and too low to sit comfortably against a dealer showing a big card. Knowing which hands to push on and which ones to play cautiously with is half the battle, and we have gone deep on exactly this in our piece on the best and worst starting hands in blackjack.

A Quick Word On Insurance

Every now and then the dealer’s face-up card is going to be an Ace, and when that happens the table will offer you something called insurance. It is basically a little side wager, seperate from your main bet, where you are putting down up to half of your original stake as a sort of safety net against the dealer turning over a blackjack. If they do have it, the insurance pays you back at 2 to 1, so you come out roughly level on the deal instead of losing the lot. Sounds sensible on paper. The honest truth though, and plenty of seasoned players will tell you the very same, is that insurance is not always the friend it pretends to be, and over the long run it has a way of quietly eating into your money. Whether it is worth taking really depends on the moment, so before you start clicking it out of pure habit, have a proper look at our breakdown of the blackjack insurance bet, it lays out when it makes sense and when you are far better off leaving it well alone.

Side Bets For A Bit Of Extra Spice

Once the basic game feels like second nature, some of our blackjack tables let you have a go at side bets, and these are a nice way to keep things lively. A side bet is an optional little wager you place alongside your main hand, betting on some particular thing happening with the cards rather than on the outcome of the hand itself. You might come across markets like Perfect Pairs, where you are hoping your first two cards come out as a matching pair, or 21+3, which brings a bit of poker flavour by looking at your two cards and the dealer’s up card as well. They definitely add a jolt of excitement and the payouts on them can be handsome; mind you they carry a good deal more risk, so it is wise not to go pouring your whole budget into them. If you fancy learning how each of these works and what they tend to pay, our guide to blackjack side bets walks you through the lot.

Live Dealer Blackjack, Right There On Your Phone

For a fair few players, the real pull of blackjack is having a proper human being on the other side of the table, and that is exactly what our live dealer games bring to you. Instead of software dealing the cards you get a genuine dealer, streamed to your screen in real time, dealing from an actual shoe and chatting away as the hand unfolds. It is about as near to a land-based casino as you can get without ever leaving the settee. You watch every card land, you make your calls with the little on-screen buttons, and the whole table runs at that natural, unhurried pace. If the live tables are your cup of tea, you might also enjoy sitting down to our live baccarat once you are done here, it runs in much the same easy-going manner. And the best part is that all of it is avaialble on your mobile, no desktop needed whatsoever.

Plenty More To Explore At Fortune

Blackjack might be the reason you came, but it would be a shame to stop there when we have got so much else going on. If the spinning reels are more your thing then our slots library is stacked with titles for every taste under the sun, and the folks chasing a life-changing sum tend to drift over to the jackpot games where the prize pools climb and climb. Fans of the wheel have got our roulette tables waiting, and for anyone after a fast little thrill between the bigger sessions, the instant win games do the job nicely. You can have a browse through all our casino games in one place whenever you like, and it is always worth casting an eye over the latest promotions too, since there is usually a little something on offer to give your play a boost.

Getting Yourself Started

Joining in is about as painless as it comes, and you will be sat at a table in a couple of minutes if you have got your details handy. Head over to the Fortune Mobile Casino home page and look for the register or sign up button, give it a tap, and pop in the personal bits and bobs it asks of you. You will set yourself up a username and a password, and do make sure that password is a strong one, there is no sense being careless with a thing like that. After that you nip into the deposit area, pick whichever payment method suits you best out of the ones we have on offer, and put a little something into your account so you can get playing for real. From there you just search out the blackjack tables, take your seat, and you are off and running. Should you ever need to hop back in later on, the log in page is right there waiting for you.

Made For The Small Screen

Whether you are on a bit of a break at work, sat on the bus, or just having a lazy evening on the sofa, the blackjack tables load up clean and play smooth on pretty much any modern handset going. There is nothing you need to download to get going, it all runs away happily inside your browser, though if you would sooner have the app then that is there for you as well. The cards, the chips, the buttons, every bit of it has been sized and placed so your thumbs can reach it without any fuss.

Keeping It Fun And Sensible

Blackjack is a grand way to pass a bit of time, but it is only ever any good while it stays fun, and we do mean that sincerely. Our tables are for grown ups only, so you must be 18 or over to play, no exceptions on that one. Set yourself a budget before you sit down and only ever stake that much which you can comfortably afford to lose, never money you are relying on for something else. We give you the tools to keep a lid on it too, things like deposit limits and time outs and self exclusion, all there for the taking if you ever feel your play is starting to get away from you. And if you would like a chat or a bit of support, the good people at BeGambleAware are there day and night. Keep it sensible like that and the game stays the good fun it was always meant to be.
