Could be improved with rebet option after hands and additional side bets like match the dealer or lucky ladies. Could same screen room by keeping the side bets of 17-20 and 21 and removing the others. Also seems to run a little slow but not horrible. Multiple hands would be good too. ### 5/5 — BlackJack *2021-09-10, version 1.6* Just started playing but seems it’s going to become a favorite 🤩 ### 5/5 — Black jack plus *2021-07-26, version 1.6* Great game ### 5/5 — Blackjack *2021-04-16, version 1.5* Love Blackjack and even more now with these side bets ### 5/5 — Love it *2021-04-11, version 1.4* I love this game ### 5/5 — Awesome Side bets *2021-04-07, version 1.3* These are the most appealing side bets I have ever seen on a blackjack game...great game ### 5/5 — Blackjack Plus *2021-04-04, version 1.3* Best Blackjack app out there by far! ### 5/5 — Blackjack plus *2021-04-03, version 1.3* I like it !
