Holdem Blackjack (New Game)
I just got this letter about a new game from Sun Poker
We will be launching a new game on our poker
software called "Hold'em Blackjack". We think
this game will be a hit with poker and blackjack
players alike. Here are the details of the game:
***
Whether you're a poker fanatic or a blackjack buff,
Hold’em Blackjack is a thrilling new game that offers
the best of both worlds! This is the first ever
player-to-player game that combines the betting and
bluffing of Texas Hold’em with the familiar play of
casino blackjack. The object of the game is to compete
against other players to make the best blackjack hand
after three rounds of betting.
First Round
. Each player is dealt one card face down followed by
the first round of betting.
. Action starts with the player to the left of the big
blind and continues clockwise around the table. Players
may bet, check, call, raise, or fold in turn until all
bets are matched.
· Betting is Fixed Limit. A bet/raise equals the Big Blind
amount.
Second Round
· Each remaining player is dealt a second card face up
followed by the second round of betting.
· Action starts with the player to the left of the dealer
button and continues clockwise around the table.
· Betting is Fixed Limit. A bet/raise equals 2x the Big
Blind amount.
Hand Completion
· Remaining players complete their hands, in turn, going
clockwise around the table. Each player may request additional
cards (Hit) until they stop at the current hand total (Stand).
Additional cards are dealt face down.
· If a player exceeds 21 they can only Stand (but they are still
in the game).
· If a player has a soft 21 or has 7 cards they can only Stand.
Final Round
· The final round of betting begins after all remaining players
have completed their hands.
· Action starts with the player to the left of the dealer button
and continues clockwise around the table.
· Betting is Spread Limit. A bet/raise must be between 2´ and 10´
the Big Blind amount.
The Showdown
· Remaining players display their hands to determine who wins.
Losing hands may be mucked without being shown.
· The player with the best blackjack hand (according to the above
hand rankings) wins the pot.
· Ties split the pot.
