Software |
The software used is the state of the art
Viper software from Microgaming.
Microgaming is a very well established and
dependable software company.
The software is fast and very smooth.
Graphics & sound are great. Choose
between a Flash or a download
version. The Viper version offers
new features like Expert Mode & AutoPlay.

House Edge |
The house advantage for blackjack is 0.33%.
They offer a double deck game in
the single hand version and a 5-deck version
in the multi-hand version. I recommend the
single hand version with a house advantage
of 0.33% versus 0.51% for the multi hand
game. The double deck version is called European
blackjack.
Click Microgaming
Basic Strategy to view the BJ strategy for this game.
The 2-deck European game has very good odds. Also look for this game unless you are playing at a casino that offers the older single deck game. |

Bonus |
The casino currently offers
a 150% match max $60 bonus. Yu need promo code DD150. The first-deposit bonus
requires a reasonable play through of 30 times.
Jacks or Better VP games, Sic
Bo, Roulette, Baccarat & Craps do
not count towards meeting the bonus
requirements. Only
2% of blackjack play can be
counted towards the wagering requirement. Consequently, I wouldn't bother with the
bonus for blackjack play.
