Online Blackjack Tournaments

Online Multi-Player Blackjack Tournaments

A multiplayer online blackjack tournament at Wild Jack Casino is one of the hottest and most exciting attractions in the casino. For a small — and sometimes free — entry fee, you can compete against your fellow blackjack players, win a nice cash prize, and experience a new and exciting way to play blackjack online.

Entering an Online Blackjack Tournament

To enter an online blackjack tournament, you must first register with Wild Jack Online Casino, download the casino software, and open a real-money account. Then go into the casino lobby and click on Tournaments — Blackjack. You'll see about a dozen blackjack tournaments offered each day, with information about the rules and the prizes for each one. Just find the one you like, click Join, and you're in.

Entry fees for a blackjack tournament online range from $2 to $20, with one or two "Freerolls" each day. Prizes for a typical $5 tournament are $40 for first place, $20 for second, and $10 for third. So winning a blackjack tournament is clearly not going to make you rich, but an 800 percent return on your investment is nothing to laugh off either, and the bragging rights and the boost to your self-esteem that come with a tournament victory can be priceless.

Playing in an Online Blackjack Tournament

When you play in an online blackjack tournament, you can see all of the players sitting around the virtual blackjack table. You can observe how they bet and how they play their cards. It makes for a much more exciting online casino gambling experience than a regular online blackjack game that is simply you against the dealer.

And then — if you are skilled and lucky enough to win the online black jack tournament and take home the prize money — that is the biggest thrill of all!

The Goal in Blackjack Tournament Play

In an ordinary game of blackjack — whether in an online blackjack casino or an old-fashioned brick casino — your goals are simple: to beat the dealer and come out ahead for the day. If you start with a bankroll of $2,500 and a half hour later you're up to $2,750, you'll of course be happy. Who wouldn't be happy making $250 in half an hour? And if some other blackjack player is up to $3,000, you can afford to be happy for him too. It doesn't cost you anything to celebrate the other guy's good fortune in winning at blackjack.

But a blackjack tournament is different. In a tournament, that guy with the $3,000 is costing you the first-place spot and the prize money. So your goal in blackjack tournament play is not only to beat the dealer, it is also to beat the other blackjack players to the top of the leader board.

Blackjack Tournament Strategy

The best blackjack strategy for tournament play is to always bet the maximum bet allowed. Remember, you don't want only to win the hand, you want to win big. And big blackjack bets are the way to collect big blackjack winnings.

It's also good tournament blackjack strategy to be a little bit more daring than usual in your splitting strategy and your double-down strategy. You don't want to go overboard and play blackjack recklessly, but you can try splitting a pair of tens occasionally or doubling down with a 9 against the dealer's 7. These are not the blackjack strategies recommended by the blackjack basic strategy charts, but if you get lucky and draw the right cards they could reward you with the big jackpots that put you ahead of your competitors and on top of the leader board.

Much to Win and Little to Lose in the Online Blackjack Tournament

One of the great draws of playing in a blackjack tournament online is that you could win some good prizes, while your risk of loss is very small. If you pay $5 to enter a tournament in the online blackjack casino, and proceed to lose hand after blackjack hand until all your chips are gone (and yes, it happens to even the best blackjack players sometimes), what have you really lost? Only the $5 entry fee — and that's not much at all. Those 2,500 virtual blackjack chips that disappeared are just that — virtual. They don't mean anything to your real-world bankroll.
