Blackjack

Blackjack is played intermittently on the CBL Discord Server.

One of the hosts (CT/Hugh) will announce a game of Blackjack to play in the #jack-black Discord channel. Between 6-14 users can join the game (often there are multiple games played consecutively). Usually the host will stream their screen, with the Blackjack simulator run on there.

Cost and prizes
The entrance Fee is 100 Tokens, and there are 5 rounds played. Typically, prizes will be like these, but it varies from game to game:


 * Winning the 1st round will give you 100 Tokens, 200 if you get a Blackjack (BJ)*
 * Winning the 2nd round will give you 2 Gold coins, 4 if you get a BJ*
 * The prizes of the 3rd round are dynamic, often they are random cards of a specific tier, with a choice of card from the tier if you get a BJ*
 * Winning the 4th round will give you 100 Tokens, 200 if you get a BJ*
 * Winning the 5th round will give you a Mid-Tier Card Roll, High-Tier if you get a BJ*

Splitting and doubling down
In the 5th round, you can also split (if you have 2 cards of the same value) or Double Down (DD), at the cost of 100 Tokens.

Splitting will let you split your hand into 2 hands, each getting another card (this can be a good idea if you have 2 cards with value 10, so you get 2 more changes for a BJ or at least a chance to win 2 prizes) DD will get you 1 more card (like a hit but exactly 1 card) and gives you better prizes if you win (a High-Tier Card)


 * Depending on the host, we will also count the following either as a BJ or as a higher hand: Ban Ban - AA - two aces on the dealt hand. 5 Card Charlie - 5cc - five cards dealt, at a total value of 21 or less.
