Super 21 Strategy
How To Play Super 21 or Super Fun 21
Super Fun 21, usually referred to simply as Super 21, is an exciting variation on the game of Blackjack. In many ways, Super 21 is played exactly like Blackjack, making it an easy game for beginners to learn. The interesting pay-tables for Super 21 adds a nice twist to the game and provides an element of excitement that is not found in traditional Blackjack.
Just as with Blackjack, the object of Super 21 is to build a hand that has more points than the dealer’s hand, without going over 21 points. Aces count as either 1 or 11 points in Super 21, while face cards (Jack, Queen, King) count as 10 points each. All other cards count as the numerical value of the card (2-10).
Although the player can choose to make any move they wish, whether it makes sense or not, the Super 21 Dealer is subject to specific rules that govern how the dealer will play their hand. The typical rules for Super 21 are:
- Dealer must hit on “Soft” 17
- Blackjack Pays Even Money (1 to 1)
- Player may hit or double down after splitting aces and receiving a card
- Player may double down on any number of cards (e.g. double down on 4th card)
- Late surrender and surrendering after a double down (double down rescue) is allowed
Note that even though these rules are standard for Super 21, they may vary slightly from one location to the next. Be sure to consult the local house rules before you play.
People who are accustomed to playing Blackjack may be initially put off by only being paid 1 to 1 for a Blackjack hand in Super 21. The soon realize that the excitement adds up, however, by getting paid larger amounts for hands that do not count as anything extra in normal Blackjack. For example, in Super 21, a 2-card blackjack where both cards are the suit of diamonds pays 2 to 1, which is much better than the 3 to 2 odds the same hand would receive in regular blackjack.
There are a number of ways for the player to win in Super 21. Among them are:
- Any hand with more points than the dealer’s hand, without exceeding 21 points, pays 1 to 1
- Any hand of with 6 cards automatically wins, except after double down
- Any 5 card hand totaling 21 pays 2 to 1
- Any Blackjack pays 1 to 1
- Any Diamond Blackjack pays 2 to 1
These elements combine to make Super Fun 21 an exciting variation on the game of Blackjack, and one that has been widely welcomed by Blackjack players who are looking for something a little different.
