The rules are known, if you have played the standard option. Your objective will be to strive after a Blackjack, and beat the dealer. To be eligible to play for that thrilling jackpot, you must make a side bet, not only a standard one.

The start has come for Blackjack online, and you will get two cards facing up. Then, the dealer will get two, too, but one of those will be facing down. It is now your turn, to hit, to stand, or to double the bet. After you finish, the dealer will show his card. As shown on the table, the standard payout is 3:2, if the dealer has Blackjack, you and the other players will get your bets back. The Insurance is also possible here, and the payout for it is 1:1. One more item of information is about the dealer: he must hit with a hand lower than 16, and stand, if that hand is 17 or over it.

As in the standard variant, you must have the higher hand, without going in excess of 21. Another thing is that with more aces, your payout will be heftier. To win the entire jackpot, the requirement is to draw 4 Aces of the same color. For the winning of a progressive side bet, you must, too, draw aces, while losing a hand to the game dealer. Remember that a side bet is not dependent on the primary bet you make.
