.: Perfect Pairs Blackjack Casino Game Review

Perfect pairs is a popular blackjack bonus game, and works exactly as it sounds. Place a bonus bet and win if your two hole cards are pairs. The payout is usually 5:1 for any matching number, 10:1 if the pair is the same color (spade and club, diamond and heart). Or, you get a 30:1 payout on the bonus bet should the two pair be identical. The bonus bet has about a 12% house edge - but adds extra fun to the game.

The blackjack game itself is the same as Vegas Strip blackjack... Usually 8 decks in the shoe and the usual assortsment of options. Insurance if offered, paying 2:1, if the dealer shows an ace. You are free to split pairs and double down on any hard 9, 10, or 11.

Play against the dealer, going for the elusive 21. Pushes refund your stake.
