Super 21 is an exciting new Blackjack game from the software labs at RTG. The rules are standard Blackjack rules, so nothing new there, but the game does have something special going for it – Bonus Payouts! There are a number of hands which pay at 2:1 when you win, even some that total less than 21. That makes this game a great way to earn money while having a fun time!

Rules

When rolling with the cards in this great game called Super 21, it is good to know that Mr. Dealer will always Hits on Soft 17s. That won't give you the edge by any means, but it's good to know! Splitting is encouraged, but you should know that you can't draw on Split Aces, and you can only Re-Split once, for a total of 3 hands. Doubling Down costs the same as your Ante bet, and is allowed on any two cards. You can Surrender at any time at a cost of half your bet, and Insurance is available to purchase in the event the Dealer shows an Ace. It costs 1x your starting bet.

Wagers and Payouts

When making your Ante bet in Super 21, you have to keep the amount somewhere between 1 and 250 USD/GBP/Euro, though your bet can increase quite a lot if you Split, Double Down, or buy Insurance. When you win, the payouts are a little different than usual, so look closely:

  • Blackjack pays 1:1
  • Diamond Blackjack pays 2:1
  • 5-card 21 pays 2:1
  • 6-card 21 pays 2:1
  • 6 cards (instant win) pays 1:1

Graphics and Gameplay

If you've ever played a game by RTG before, you know that you can expect quality graphics and gameplay. Actually, Super 21 reaches really quite close to perfection. The graphics are great – realistic, subtly animated, but not flashy or overdone. The game plays quick and smooth, with all the animations and flashy parts kept to a good level, so that they add to the fun of the game but never distract of slow things down. Plus, the layout is so well designed that it's easy to learn, and once you load the game, you'll be playing in no time at all. The designers did a fantastic job with this one!

Tips

Pay close attention to the dealer's face-up card, and let this guide your actions. Your goal is not always to come as blindingly close to 21 as possible, but rather to come closer to 21 than the dealer. You can make an educated guess about the eventual total of the dealer's hand based on that one card, and on what other cards have already been played. Since this game is just played with 2 decks, you should be able to keep a count of how many 10-point cards and how many Aces have been played, so use that to your advantage!

Conclusion

The Bonus Payouts offered in Super 21 are what make this game great. They always seem to pop up when you're on a downhill slide, and more often than not they save the day by bumping your bank back up to where it should be! This all happens in a well-planned, realistic game environment. Super 21 really offers everything you could ask for in a Blackjack game, without compromising anything!
