INTRODUCTION
Yggdrasil’s Dr Fortuno Blackjack is an online casino table that reacquaints us with the mysterious carnival ringmaster. He has left his slot and is looking for the brave souls that are willing to play against him in a round of blackjack. The game is played with six decks to prevent card counting. On top of that, cards are reshuffled after each round to ensure fairness. The visuals look fantastic. We are particularly impressed with the animations of the virtual dealer, which are top-notch! Great work Yggdrasil!
The RTP for this release is 99.54%, assuming you play following the basic blackjack strategy. Other wagers are available, but they increase the house edge. Dr Fortuno Blackjack has one side bet, called the Fortune Bonus Bet. Other players can also join the table and play with you. It is not often we see multiplayer in an online casino game, so we are quite thrilled with Yggdrasil’s offering.
HOW TO PLAY DR FORTUNO BLACKJACK
Placing a wager is not that difficult. All available coin values will be presented in front of you. Choose one, and place it on the main and side bet areas. You also have a timer ticking down, so do not wait too long to set up your stake.
After you finish with your wager, the game actually starts! The dealer draws two cards for the player, and two for himself. He does this by slamming his fist on the alligator toy next to him. The alligator then spits out the cards. After all cards are dealt, players can choose to hit, stand, double or split. Players can double with any two cards, and you can double after a split. However, you can only split once, and you only get one more card if you split a pair of aces. Both doubling and splitting require an extra wager to be placed before you can play them.
With everyone on the table finishing with their wagers, the dealer reveals his second card. If he has not yet reached a soft 17, he will draw more cards. After that, they will stop drawing more cards. If either you or the dealer go above 21, then it is an automatic win for the other side. If neither side busts, then the one closest to 21 wins the round.
PAYOUTS
Assuming you do not play the side bet, the best possible win you can look forward to is a 3:2 blackjack payout. It is only awarded if your first two cards form a 21. All other wins, except one, pay even money. Insurance bets pay 2:1 when you correctly guess that the dealer has blackjack. That said, we advise against playing Insurance, as the odds are stacked against you.
