Playing Online Blackjack in Australia
No matter where in the world you are and no matter what casino you are playing at
their will always be only a certain amount and type of Blackjack Games available.
In fact, the rules of Blackjack are generally determined by the law or gambling
regulations of the area in which you are playing, or by house rules. These rules
are generally posted on or near the table if the Blackjack is being played offline
and will be available via the Casino Software for Blackjack Games played online.
Did you know?
Even though the majority of them are not available in many casinos there have been
over 100 variations of the game of Blackjack recorded since the game was first recognised
way back in 1601. The game has changed in many ways since then and is hardly identifiable
with the original form of the game. Online Blackjack is not included as a “new form”
of the game, because it uses the same rule sets as all modern land based Blackjack
Games.
Online Blackjack and the “House Edge”
It has been said on more than one occasion that Online Blackjack (and its offline
cousin) is one of the only Casino Games to offer fair odds when playing at a casino.
But what exactly does this mean, and what are the fair odds?
Firstly is must be noted that as with all casino games, Online Blackjack incorporates
a "house edge". This “house edge” is a statistical advantage that is built into
the game that will give the house “the edge”. This “edge” is the the advantage of
the dealer's position in Blackjack if the player busts. This is because the player
losses regardless of what happens to the dealer (including if the dealer also busts).
However, if you as the player simply use basic Online Blackjack strategy you should
on average only lose about 1% of your wagered amounts. This percentage is VERY favourable
when compared to other Online Casino Games that rely more on luck than on skill.
Please Note! The loss rate of players who do not use, or who use basic strategy
incorrectly, is generally MUCH higher than the expected rate mentioned above.
