Face Up Blackjack
Face Up Blackjack is a face-up game on a six deck shoe. A blackjack pays even money.
What this game changes
Both dealer cards are visible from the start. Correct play therefore follows the exact dealer total rather than an upcard. The trade for that information is even money on a blackjack and a dealer who beats a tied hand.
