How It Plays
Salon Prive Blackjack C follows the standard rules for Evolution Live Blackjack. The game uses eight decks, and the dealer stands on a soft 17. Players can double down on any initial two cards and can double after splitting. Splitting is allowed once, but re-splitting is not permitted. The game does not offer a surrender option. The dealer takes a hole card and peeks only when an Ace is showing, in which case a dealer blackjack results in the player losing their total wager, including any doubled or split amounts. Insurance is offered when the dealer shows an Ace, paying 2:1, but this bet carries a higher house edge than the main game.
In addition to the main blackjack wager, players can place two optional side bets: 21+3 and Perfect Pairs. These side bets offer different payout structures based on combinations of the player's initial two cards and the dealer's up-card.
House Edge by Bet
| Bet Type | House Edge | RTP |

| 21+3 | 3.70% | 96.30% |
| Perfect Pairs | 4.10% | 95.90% |
The house edge for the main blackjack hand is based on optimal basic strategy. It is important to note that the optional side bets, 21+3 and Perfect Pairs, carry a significantly higher house edge compared to the main blackjack wager.
Strategy and Bankroll
The optimal strategy for Salon Prive Blackjack C is basic strategy, which minimizes the house edge to 0.71%.
