Are you ready for an exciting game of Blackjack at BetRivers? If so, you can play Power Blackjack and look to win big. After the first two cards are dealt, you can double, triple, or quadruple your stake. You should be aware that all 9s and 10s have been eliminated from the playing deck in Power Blackjack. The game is played the same way as regular Blackjack, but remember that normal fundamental strategy is no longer applicable.

An infinite number of players can win large in Power Blackjack, which is based on Evolution’s standard Blackjack and Infinite Blackjack. You can Double, Triple, or Quadruple Down on any two starting cards in the game—even after a split. Power Blackjack also comes with four side bets: Any Pair, 21+3, Hot 3 and Bust It.

Keep in mind that you have to play differently when hitting, doubling and splitting because there are no 9s or 10s. The best blackjack strategy for Power Blackjack involved Doubling, Tripling and Quadrupling your bet. The side bets also add excitement to the game. It is also interesting to note that an unlimited number of people can play. That means you are never going to be waiting for a seat.

Power Blackjack at BetRivers is played using the same basic game play that you will see in the Evolution Games of Infinite Blackjack and Lightning Blackjack. The big thing with Power Blackjack is the increased betting. That is what makes the game appealing. You can increase your bet by two, three, or four times your original wager, once the first two players cards have been dealt. Power Blackjack also has four optional side bets and you can play those in addition to your regular main hand.

The Power Blackjack game begins with “Betting Time”, and that occurs for just 12 seconds, so the game speed is great. Once the first bet is placed, it is sometimes referred to as an Ante Bet. You also have the additional side bets that occur before the cards are dealt.

Hot3 – This is where you are betting on whether the player’s first two cards and the dealer’s up card make up a total of 19, 20, 21.

21+3 – This is a where you bet on the player’s first two cards and the dealer’s up card making a 3-card poker hand.

Any Pair – This is where you are betting that the player’s first two cards form a pair

BustIt – This side bet pays out if the dealer busts. And this bet also pays more if the dealer busts with more cards, so you can win additional money if the dealer busts with more cards.
