Super 21 starts just like normal Blackjack with the dealer and player being dealt 2 cards. The dealer has 1 card dealt down and the players cards are both up. The goal in Super 21 is just like regular blackjack where you want to come as close to 21 as possible without going over and also beat the dealers hand. In Super 21 there are some differences to note and also some bonuses that the player can receive. The only down side to Super 21 is that blackjack pays even money instead of 3-2 but the Super 21 bonuses make up for that.
In Super 21 the main differences are that you can double down at any time. Have 3, 4 or even 5 cards in front of you and doubling is allowed. How many times have you doubled on 9 and got a 2? In Super 21 you can double on your third card. You can also split any hand up to 4 times in Super 21. This is where the doubling on any number of cards comes in handy. Sometimes normal Blackjack Strategy will say not to split 4’s and 6’s, but in Super 21 you should. This is because you may have the chance to double after receiving your third card. Split 4’s and get a 3 for example. You hit the 7 and receive a 4. Whoo hoo! In super 21 you can now double on that 11!
