Two years ago, a friend asked me why I hadn’t tried online blackjack. He said it was a completely new experience and advised me to play a game on my home computer at the earliest opportunity.
I’d never thought about the concept before – I can just about send an email, so the idea of playing casino games online had never really occurred to me. Still, my friend put together a convincing argument as to why I should try my favourite casino game on a computer.
His arguments were:
- You don’t have to travel to your local casino to play – (my ‘local’ is about twenty minutes drive away!)
- There are no distractions in online blackjack games (Presumably, aside from the wife!)
- There are many different online blackjack games.
I was intrigued by this last point. Aside from a brief holiday to France where I played a few games of continental blackjack, I’ve never really experienced a ‘different’ blackjack game. Indeed, when I first signed up at an online casino, I was amazed at the choice available.
There are dozens of online blackjack games available. Excitedly, I quickly went about playing a few hands in a number of titles.
One game, Double Attack Blackjack, immediately caught my eye.
Online blackjack - Double Attack Blackjack
This online blackjack title gives you the chance to raise your bet after seeing ‘the dealer’s’ first card. The option allows seasoned players to wager more if they think they have better odds of winning.
If players choose this feature, two giant canon rise up from the green felt. A win sees these old-fashioned weapons fire cannonballs at your opponents cards. It’s fantastic to watch and all very entertaining.
I think it is sorts of features which make online blackjack games so appealing. Online casino blackjack titles such as this gives players the chance to win more cash in an innovative way.
The online medium allows game developers like WagerWorks to experiment with new methods and gameplay features. Nowadays, I get excited about any new release and I’m always eager to see what innovative blackjack game is on the horizon. My friend’s advice paid off yet again.
I suppose I should listen to him more often then!
