Evolution Gaming is a live dealer streaming platform and is the closest I’ve seen to bringing the excitement of a traditional brick and mortar casino into your home. The charm comes from the professionally trained dealers which you can tell take pride in interacting with the players and enjoying themselves. Other platforms pale in comparison as I’ve seen many a live dealer have this look of boredom with a disinterest in engaging with the players.

Blackjack Party. This is a unique offering that we have only seen offered by Evolution Gaming. These tables feature a laid back attitude, background party music and lower stakes. They are pretty much always full so your best bet will be to wait for a free seat and utilize the bet behind feature. Blackjack Party from Evolution Gaming is an entertaining live blackjack game suitable for players that want to have fun while playing. It has low stakes so it’s also suitable for players on a tight budget. What makes the game quite appealing, despite its casual playing character, is the Bet Behind feature. There are upwards of 90 Evolution Gaming Live Blackjack games to play but we’ve picked the top 5 to bet on right now. Does your favourite make the cut?

In fact, even when there aren’t many players at the table, the live dealers at Evolution Gaming are happy to joke around and converse with the people who are just watching. This liveliness from the dealers really makes the environment a joy to experience and certainly sets the standard for other live dealer platforms and are completely compatible with mobile devices.

Blackjack

Evolution Gaming uses the same set of blackjack rules for all of their tables regardless of which partner casino the games are featured on. The only differences with each table are the betting limit ranges, dedicated (branded tables), overall theme including table color, number of live dealers during a session and so forth.

The rules are as follows:

  • Use classic seven-seat tables
  • Cards are dealt from an 8 deck shoe
  • Shoe is manually shuffled (around halfway through)
  • US style deal (dealer cards are one face down, one face up)
  • Dealer must stand on all 17’s
  • Doubling after splitting is permitted
  • Doubling any two cards is permitted
  • No hit on split Aces (one card per Ace only)
  • Re-splitting is not permitted
  • Insurance is available
  • Bet Behind is available
  • Side bets available: 21+3, Perfect Pairs

With these rules in mind, the house edge comes out to be 0.73%. The 21+3 side bet house edge is 6.29% and the Pairs side bet house edge is 4.10%. They also provide a feature called pre-decision where you can, similarly to poker, make a decision while waiting for your turn to speed things up.

Blackjack Party

Blackjack Party has the same rules as regular blackjack, however, the presentation is more like a TV set with a dealer and a co-host creating a much more lively experience. This dynamic, along with the pumping music and bubbly chat makes for a chilled and fun environment.

These are generally low stakes (£0.50 – £25) tables with 7 seats available although an unlimited amount of viewers are allowed to bet behind any player they choose.
