For example, it a player had a nine and an ace in one hand and an eight and a king in the other, they could put the eight with the nine and the ace with the king to make two better hands.

Although this rule does make things a bit easier for the player, there are additional rules that were created to make the game slightly harder, such as on a soft 17, the dealer will hit. Even money is paid for a blackjack. Doubling and splitting happens the same way it does in normal blackjack.

Casino War
This is one of the most basic alternative games to play on-line. There are many similarities between casino war and the war card game that children play.

To start, each player will make a bet and be dealt one card. The dealer is also dealt one card. Besides the fact that aces are always high cards, the card rankings are similar to poker.

Once the cards have been dealt, they have to be compared to the dealer's card. Even money is won if the player's card is higher than the dealer's. There are two options when there is a tie: going to war or surrendering, which causes the player to lose half of his bet.

A war is initiated by raising the bet by the same amount as the initial bet. After that, a second card is dealt. If this card is even or better than the dealer's, even money is won on the raised amount and the original bet will push. When the dealer has the higher card, both bets are lost.
