This is a game of blackjack, where you need to score as close as possible to 21 points without going over. You can bet upto 400 neopoints, and can get a bonus if you win on a 21. However, unlike regular blackjack, you cannot split your hand.

For the best payoff, consult the table to the right.

Betting

[edit | edit source]

In this game, you can bet up to 400 neopoints. While you can bet as much as you want, there are tactics that prevent you from losing too much money beyond long losing streaks.

  • Bet a low amount (e.g. 25np), and double each time you lose.
  • Bet a low amount (e.g. 10np), and triple each time you lose.

These tactics are of limited use because of the low betting limit.
