Quantum Blackjack Live
We offer the eight deck Quantum Blackjack Live game with the addition of Quantum Multipliers, played against a live dealer at a real Blackjack table. The seat can host an unlimited number of players.
Note that you can place any bets, but the multiplier affects only the main bet and your payout if you win with a hand that contains multiplier card(s).

Card shuffle
Eight pre-shuffled decks are used in the game and cards are shuffled with a shuffling machine. Each time a new set of cards is ready, all previous cards are removed. Dealer takes cards directly from the shuffling machine.
Burn cards before game round: If enabled by the service provider, then right after the multipliers have been announced, the dealer draws the first card face up and the number of cards that corresponds to the value of the first card is burned (i.e. discarded), face down.

Rules
Multiplier cards
Each round, up to three (3) special cards are affected by multipliers – multiplier cards. These enhance the payout of only the main bet (see the payout table for info). If the multiplier card in your hand also combines a side bet win, the side bet payout is not affected by the multiplier, it is paid according to the regular payout table.
If the multiplier card is dealt to the dealer, nothing happens.
If you have two (2) or more cards in your hand that match the suit and value of several individual multiplier cards, you are awarded the product of the multipliers.
Example: 6 of Spades has multiplier x5 and 9 of Hearts has multiplier x10. The hand contains two instances of 9 of Hearts and one 6 of Spades. The payout is bet x (5x10).
Note that if you have two (2) or more identical cards in your hand that match the suit and value of one multiplier card, you are awarded the corresponding multiplier only once (also applicable in Split situation.
Blackjack
If you win with the Blackjack combination and your hand contains a multiplier card, the bet is multiplied by the Blackjack payout and the corresponding multiplier (see the payout table for info) but note that your initial bet is not returned to you. All the above applies also when the dealer goes bust.
Double
If you Double and your winning hand contains a multiplier cards, your whole bet is multiplied. In all other aspects, the common doubling rules, as described in the Game Rules section, apply.
Split
If you Split and both new hands have a copy of the same multiplier card, both hand’s bets are multiplied by the corresponding multiplier. This is also the case if you get a multiplier card dealt to a split hand that did not contain it before. In all other aspects, the common splitting rules, as described in the Game Rules section, apply.
Insurance
Multiplier cards have no effect on Insurance.
Push and bust scenarios
When your main bet gets pushed, the multipliers do not apply. When you and the dealer both go bust, you lose your main bet. If the dealer goes bust with three (3) cards but you do not bust, this is also considered a push and you get your bet back. In all other aspects, the common push and bust rules, as described in the Game Rules section, apply.
Game rules
The object of the game is for the total of your cards to be closer to 21 than the dealer’s cards, without exceeding 21. Aces count as either 1 or 11, face cards as 10, and number cards at their face value. Blackjack beats a score of 21.
You can bet on all betting positions within a single game round. If two players are playing on the same position, one may choose to Stand and the other may choose to Hit. In this case, the dealer will deal another card to the position, but the player who chose to Stand will not receive the card.
If you receive an Ace and a ten-value card as your first two cards, you have Blackjack and win 1.5 times your bet (if your bet was 10, you receive 25). If the total value of your cards is closer to 21 than the dealer's, you win your bet amount (if your bet was 10, you receive 20). If the total of your cards is more than 21, you are "bust" and lose your bet. If you and the dealer have the same card total (17 and up) neither win, and your bet is returned to you in a "push".
The dealer draws cards until 16 and always stands on 17 (including soft 17).
Split
If your first two cards have the same value, you may split them into two separate hands by placing a second bet equal to the original bet. You will then draw additional cards to each hand. You may not Split a split hand.
You may draw as many cards as you like on each split hand, but if you split two Aces, you receive only one additional card for each Ace. If you receive an Ace and a ten-value card in a split hand, it is considered 21 and not Blackjack. In this case the payout is 1:1, not 3:2.
Double
If, after you are dealt your first two cards, you think that the third card will allow you to beat the dealer's hand, you can double your bet. The bet amount becomes twice the original (with the difference taken out of your balance), and you are dealt one more card.
You may Double after splitting. If you Double and dealer's first card’s value is 11 (Ace), and the dealer gets Blackjack, you lose both bets. If dealer’s first card’s value is 10, and the dealer gets Blackjack, your Double bet is returned to you.
Insurance
If the dealer shows an Ace in his initial hand, you are given a chance to insure your bet against him having a Blackjack. If you get Insurance, an amount equal to half your original bet is placed separately on the table. If the dealer does have Blackjack, you are paid 2 to 1 on your insurance. This way you do not lose your original bet (because you get the 2x half your original bet, plus the insurance amount back). If the dealer does not have Blackjack, you lose the insurance amount, even if you end up losing.
You can insure any Real Money bet, but not a Golden Chip bet.
Insurance is offered when both you and the dealer have received the second card and the dealer shows an Ace as their first card in their hand. The dealer checks for a Blackjack directly after the insurance round, and if they have a Blackjack, the game round is ended before action time.
