Every online blackjack player has faced this scenario. He has played using optimum strategy and now is sure to win unless the dealer gets a 9. And to his extreme bad luck the dealer gets a 9. The new online blackjack variant from Microgaming titled European Blackjack Redeal Gold Series offers a remedy to this situation but at a cost and subject to certain conditions.

There are three redeal options available to you. In the Redeal My Hand option all the cards dealt to you are discarded and the two pocket cards are dealt again. In the Redeal Last Card option only your last card will be dealt again. In the Redeal Dealer Hand option all the dealer cards will be dealt again. This option is not valid if the player busts. None of these options will be available after you split or double down. The redeal options available to you at any given stage will be displayed on the screen with the cost that will have to be paid. You can redeal up to a maximum of five times per hand.

The brief game play is as follows. After you see your pocket cards, you have the option to redeal your hand or the dealer’s hand. The cost of the redeal at this stage is less than the ante wager. When you make your first hit, the option to redeal your last card is added. As you move into a more disadvantageous position, the greater the advantage you have on the redeal and the higher will be the cost. After you bust, the cost of redeal may exceed the ante bet.

You should also be aware of the general rules of Microgaming European Blackjack Redeal Gold Series.
