Perfect Pairs Blackjack
The game of Perfect Pairs Blackjack has a lot going on. In addition to the basic blackjack game, the player can also place a side bet, wagering that the first two cards they are dealt will be a pair. It is played out of a 5-deck shoe, which is reshuffled after each hand. The additional bet on the outcome of the initial two cards must be placed before the deal. Only the first two cards dealt are eligible for the pair payoff and any type of pair qualifies.
The Perfect Pairs bet is variable and can be placed in just about any increment below the $50 maximum. The additional bet is made in the Perfect Pairs circle right near the betting circle. Using the Autobet options will help keep up with the action and assure there is no missed opportunity. Hitting a streak of pairs can payoff big.
