Begin by placing a bet. (See "How to Bet" for details.)

You have the option to place a Hot Streak Bonus bet. Each Hot Streak Bonus bet advances every Blackjack win. If you tie the dealer then your streak bets will be preserved.

After all bets have been placed, click on the DEAL button to start play.

The Hot Streak Blackjack Player receives two cards and the DEALER and receives one. All cards will be in the face up position.

You may place a side bet on the base of the Hot Streak Bonus ladder to earn extra rewards for multiple consecutive wins. This side bet is optional and must be done before each game begins.

Each Hot Streak Bonus bet will advance when you win your Blackjack game. In a tie with the Dealer your Hot Streak Bonus bets will be preserved. When you lose your Blackjack game all Hot Streak Bonus bets will also be lost.

If you split your initial two cards into two hands, your Hot Streak Bonus bets will be lost only if you lose both hands against the Dealer. However, in order to advance your Hot Streak Bonus bets you must win both hands, otherwise your Hot Streak Bonus bets will remain in place. Thus, even if you bust the first split hand you could still save your Hot Streak.

A Double Down will not double any placed Hot Streak Bonus bet and are not affected by it.

Regarding your Hot Streak Bonus progression, a Blackjack win is counted as a win, and a Blackjack push (when both Player and Dealer get a Blackjack) is counted as a tie.

Hot Streak Bonus bets are not affected by Insurance Bets.

If a game is won after placing a Hot Streak Bonus bet, that bet will start along the Hot Streak ladder and cannot be removed or increase. You may always place a new Hot Streak Bonus bet along with your Blackjack game bet, but doing so will not affect other Hot Streak Bonus bets that are further along the ladder. When a Hot Streak Bonus bet progresses all the way to the top of the ladder, that bet will be returned to you as part of your 4-wins-in-a-row reward.

A Hot Streak Bonus bet is considered pushed if you place the Hot Streak Bonus bet and then tie that game. You will then have the option to replay, remove, or add that Hot Streak Bonus bet just like you do with a pushed main game bet.

To start playing Hot Streak Blackjack Game, you must first select a chip value by clicking on it. Chip values are located at the bottom of the playing field. The chip selected will then become highlighted and appear in a raised position. Bets may be made by clicking on the bet circle, which is located in the center of the table. Each click places one chip on the gaming table.

Your bet must meet the minimum bet but not exceed the maximum bet.

After your bet has been placed, click on the DEAL button.

After hot streak blackjack game is completed and if you wish to begin a new one, you may repeat the last bet placed by clicking the REBET AND DEAL button. The REBET AND DEAL both restores preceding bets and initiates play assuming adequate credits exist.

If you wish to repeat the previous bet without starting a new game, click the REBET button. You may adjust any placed bet, but the DEAL button needs to be clicked for play to start.

The DOUBLE BET button doubles any presently placed bet with each click. The DOUBLE BET button only exists if the bet limit has not been exceeded.

If the DOUBLE BET button is clicked before a bet is placed, this would equivalent to click the REBET button and then click the DOUBLE BET button. The DEAL button must still be clicked for play to begin. The DOUBLE BET button will only affect the main blackjack bet. It won’t double the Hot Streak Bonus bet.

Bets may be removed from the table by either holding the SHIFT key while clicking on the chips on the felt or by clicking the CLEAR button.

Playing a Hand of Blackjack

Aces are worth either 1 or 11 and the Face cards are worth 10. All other cards are worth the value as their face value. When the hand's first two cards equal 21 (such as an Ace plus a face card), it is called Blackjack.

In the event the Dealer's face up card is an Ace, you will be offered Insurance against Dealer Blackjack. You may accept or decline the Insurance. If you decide to accept the blackjack dealer's Insurance offer, another bet equal to half of your original bet will automatically be placed. After the hand is played out and the Dealer has Blackjack, then your Insurance Bet will be paid 2 to 1.

When the blackjack Player's first two cards equal a Blackjack, then the player wins. You will win 3 to 2 on your bet if the Dealer does not have a Blackjack. If the Dealer also has a Blackjack, it is called a tie and you win your bet back.

You are given the opportunity to improve your hand if you do not have a Blackjack. You may choose one of the following options depending on the cards you hold:

HIT: An additional card is requested. Additional cards may be asked for until player either stands, player’s card total value reaches 21, or player bust. When player bust he has received a card that puts the total value of all of his cards to go over 21. In this case his hand has lost and his bet is forfeited. If he has 6 cards in his hand and the total card value does not exceed 21 he has a Six-Card Charlie.

STAND: Player decides to request no additional cards and play that hand against the Dealer's hand.

SPLIT: If the first two cards in a hand are the same value, player may split them into two separate hands by clicking SPLIT. A split hand leading to a two card value total of 21 is not a Blackjack. In Blackjack with Hot Streak Bonus Aces are split like any other card and there is no restriction on split Aces.

DOUBLE DOWN: Player may click DOUBLE DOWN to automatically double the original bet and receive one additional card, on only the first two cards of the hand. The DOUBLE DOWN may also be used on the first two cards of any split hands.

The total card value is displayed on circular plaques adjacent to each hand. As cards are dealt, the plaque will display the updated total card value. When your hand holds an Ace and the plaque flashes the total card value along with the word 'Sof', the value displayed is counting the Ace as an 11 instead of 1 (for example, a 5 plus and Ace equals a 'Soft 16').

When your hand is compared against the Dealer's, Aces are given the highest possible value not to exceed 21.

Once you have played out your hand without exceeding 21, then the Dealer's hand will be played out.

If the Dealer's hand is a Blackjack the game ends and all bets are forfeited. In the event you also have a Blackjack your bet will be returned.

Only Dealer Blackjack will beat a Six-Card Charlie. Only the Player can get a Six-Card Charlie.

If the Player hand busts (total value exceeds 21) then the Dealer will only receive a second card in the case where the Dealer's first card is an Ace and you placed an Insurance Bet.
