Live Dealer Blackjack for USA Players

Both VIG Blackjack and Arrow’s Edge Live Blackjack let you do this.

Our favourite in terms of stream quality and UX is the Arrow’s Edge, but they only seem to have two tables live at the moment.

When a blackjack table is full, some live blackjack tables will offer you a chance to play together with one of the players occupying the seat. You get to be in the action, but he makes all the decisions.

You do however have an option to pre-select whether you want to split and double together with that player.

Bet behind is available at VIG tables and we’ve seen special “Bet Behind Blackjack” tables offered at Sloto Cash.

That entirely depends on the casino of your choice. You can view the lowest betting minimums by clicking here (page jump).

In our experience, we found minimum bets as low as $0.50 on offer and we have yet to see lower limits than that.

They do! For a long time none of their brands had any live dealer games, but they’ve now rolled out a complete suite of VIG tables across the following sites (all USA friendly):

• Bovada
• Slots.lv
• Ignition Casino

Sodapoppin is a (or Youtuber) with 700k+ subscribers. He makes vlogs and streams himself playing games like World of Warcraft.

In 2014 he started playing live blackjack online and streaming it to his fans. During one stream he lost $5000 on one hand – watched live by 40,000 people.

Was it real money? You can never be 100% sure, but his emotions seemed pretty genuine to us. Of course the casino he was playing at probably turned the whole thing into a pretty good marketing play too!

No. The casino already has a built in mathematical advantage, so it does not make any sense for them to cheat.

It’s bad for the business. You can learn more about house edge, and what it is in different games, on our live dealer games page.

They are either betting in a different currency or the casino they play has a higher limit than you are used to.

Usually it’s the first reason, as at many casinos players can also play in currencies like Swedish and Norwegian krona and Russian Rubles – all of which tend come in higher denominations.

They do, but sites that have Asian dealers are generally not available to casino players in the USA.

Both VIG and Arrow’s Edge have European and Costa Rican studios.

In general, stream quality depends on the software provider rather than the casino.

From US friendly providers Arrow’s Edge has by far the best stream quality, but it might be a struggle to get a seat as we’ve only found them offering 2 live blackjack tables with no bet behind. Check them out at Drake Casino.

VIG blackjack is of fine quality, but when playing at Ignition Casino you have access to more than a dozen tables.

They are one of the top choices for players looking for live dealer blackjack in the United States.

Their live dealer section is powered by Visionary iGaming who have a few different variations of blackjack offered. Choose between Early Payout, Turbo and Unlimited Bet Behind tables.

The betting limits on blackjack are quite impressive here too – up to $5k per hand and as high as $1k on the side-bets.

For a different provider and playing experience, you can always go with Drake Casino or GT Bets who have Arrow’s Edge live blackjack.

Certainly and we’ve got great news for you, after the launch of Arrow’s Edge live games on Drake Casino and GT Bets, you can play mobile live blackjack in outstanding quality too!

Their offerings are up to par with top-tier providers of Europe like PlayTech and Evolution Gaming.

You can always compare betting limits on our live blackjack page, but from the top of my head, Vietbet does offer up to $5k per hand and so does Ignition Casino.

Yes, Visionary iGaming is one such provider and their games are offered at Vietbet and MYB Casino.

Even though their games are not the best from a UX point of view, their live blackjack seems to be the only product on the market with early payouts.

No, this is currently only available online in the animated RNG version and can be played at US casino sites like Drake Casino and Bovada.

Though you should definitely keep in mind that house edge on Blackjack Switch is higher than that of regular game variations, which includes games from pretty much all live dealer providers.

From signup bonuses available to USA players, majority is worthless for live casino players and offered exclusively on slots or RNG table games.

Once in a blue moon there are bonuses that offer a positive expected value when used at live blackjack tables, but these are mostly offered for players in Europe.

Drake Casino and Gossip Slots both have signup deals where live blackjack and American Roulette contribute 10% towards wagering, so these can still be beneficial.

Visionary iGaming offer live blackjack with late surrender where dealer first peaks for blackjack and only then you are allowed to surrender.

Their tables are offered at Ignition Casino and Vietbet among others.

We do not yet stream on Twitch no, but this could be something we’d consider doing in near future!  We do have a , where videos of actual gameplay at our reviewed casinos are posted.

We like to watch the most, out of all streamers. He’s genuine and a funny guy, who plays for some incredibly high stakes.

He mainly streams himself playing PUBG as well as casino slots, but once in a while goes for live roulette and blackjack.

There are several videos on Youtube with very weird ball bounces on the roulette wheel that started the conspiracy theory. In reality, the casinos make guaranteed money due to the built in house edge so any cheating is very unlikely.

More so the companies involved in this accusation were industry giants like Evolution Gaming and NetEnt, both of whom are public companies and audited by independent bodies such as eCOGRA.

If you choose with very small providers not reviewed on our site however, there may be a higher chance of unscrupulous behavior.

There are several US friendly casinos offering live dealer games that are playable with BTC.

These are, for the most part, very legitimate software providers offering their tables and it is the casinos that take on converting the money into FIAT and back.

We can highly recommend Vietbet and Drake Casino for BTC players.

Theoretically you can, yes. If you manage to find a live casino that offers blackjack with a single deck or without any re-shuffling, then you will be able to use a system like high-low.

Truth is, training to do this at live casinos is quite the perfect solution to get very good. There’s no stress and you can use a pen and a paper until you are good enough to do all the counting in your head.

For USA players the offering is rather narrow. You have VIG and Arrow’s Edge to pick from, and the latter definitely wins.

However, if you are looking to play with the smallest house edge possible, then VIG’s Early Payout Blackjack will be the best choice.

Yes! Arrow’s Edge Live Blackjack can actually be played with a fun balance. Be prepared though, most of the time their tables are completely full and we have never managed to bet behind, even though they claim to offer this option.

Visit Drake Casino to try for yourself.

Live online casinos offer various forms of comps – promotions, sign up bonuses and reload bonuses. We cover this in detail on dedicated sections.

You’ll also find the expected value calculations for sign up bonuses along with terms & conditions on these.

In theory Blackjack is beatable yes, but not so much in practice – especially online. This is mainly because live casino providers have shoe re-shuffling rules whenever about 40 to 50% (depending on the provider) of the shoe has been played out.

MIT students did in fact take Las Vegas for millions of dollars. You can learn more about the story on the or by ..

Definitely go with Arrow’s Edge powered live casinos, as the mobile playing experience on their live blackjack tables is excellent.

You can try them out at Drake Casino and GT Bets.
