I dont think so, But If there is a link on this site you should use it.

Sweet just did a lil hit and run on the single player blackjack with another $5 we both tied on 1 and than won another and hit 2 blackjacks in a row up to $15

ub bj

I played there about 2 years ago and did pretty good at the bj tables. You use to could bet from .01 up, but they changed that about a year ago and the min now is $1 I think. Have not played for awhile, went on to Video Poker. Don't ask . Maybe I will give the bj another try. Congrats on your winnings and gl at any table.

Guys, you can`t win long-term at online Blackjack. If you are up, quit while you are ahead.

In live Blackjack, a player who plays optimum strategy and has a good memory for the fall of cards (or uses a card-counting system) has a slight edge and can win.

Online card rooms negate this by randomising the deck between every hand. Therefore, you have no edge against the house and it is a pure gamble. Sooner or later, you lose.

I played ther when they fist came out with the BJ. table...and yes u could bet any wher from $0.01 and up..now min. bet like $1.00
but like said above don't play they long.. go in try to make some quick$ and get out..if u lose a few get out and try later..don't stay in ther to long. it's not like real BJ. no cardcounting will help...lol

...but there are blackjack games where you play against other players? What's elimination blackjack?

It is when you have a stack size and bet it strategically every hand. there are "elimination hands" in which after the round the shortest stack is knocked out. It is quite fun actually.

I have played blackjack there and didn't fare too well.I don't play much bj anymore but if I decide to again it will be a live game(not that I do any better there).I do believe it is a straight game at UB but it just didn't seem right to me for some reason.The site and gameplay are nice though.Good Luck,Holdem.

id stay away from black jack... my friend lost all kinda of money on blackjack... i dont really know too much about that game... besides the very basics... but when he played he took some huge losing streak...

ps ARE THERE N E PRO BLACK JACK PLAYERS ONLINE? cause that woudl be kinda interesting figuring that people get thrown out of casinos for being good at that game

UB has BJ tournaments that pay out fairly good. I play them some for a change of pace. In the long run the odds are better in my opinion.

Black Jack can be addictive, but remember that online BJ at UB uses an "endless shoe". Where you get an edge in BJ is from a finite amount of cards. You either use one deck, or multiple deck shoes, either way the cards are finite. With a set number of cards, after a few hands have been dealt you can see whether alot of small cards have been dealt (leaving more face cards to come - giving you an edge over the dealer). However, with an endless shoe this isn't possible and your meager 1-2% edge over the house disappears.

You can definitely win a couple bucks, but as it averages out, you will most likely be in the losing circle. Get out quick, if you're ahead.

The Elimination Blackjack Tourneys are pretty fun though and since you actually play with the House cards against other players, you have a far better chance in taking home some cash. IMHO I would stick with the BJ tourneys.

Good Luck at the Tables!

Blackjack is fun, but I think if I am downswinging in NLHE than I should probably stay away from blackjack.
