The leading online casino games provider, Pragmatic Play, continues to grow its live table games portfolio.

On Tuesday, the company announced the release of Free Bet Blackjack, an interesting twist on the iconic table game offering greater winning potential.

Double Down and Split features come at no extra cost

Tapping into Free Bet Blackjack, players can expect elevated experiences and greater wins, thanks to game enhancements that add a new strategic layer to each round.

As the name of the new game suggests, players can access two engaging features at no extra cost.

That's the case for Double Down and Split, enabling the players to access those options without the need for additional pay.

The extra dynamic on the iconic game grants players a chance to Double Down on totals of 9, 10 and 11.

At the same time, at no extra cost, they can Split on all pairs with the exception of 10s, Jacks, Queens and Kings.

In certain cases, Pragmatic Play explained, the Double Down After Split feature can be accessed by players for free.

Irina Cornides, Pragmatic Play's Chief Operating Officer, was excited about the newly released live blackjack game.

"Free Bet Blackjack enhances the classic table game with the introduction of Double Down and Split options at no additional cost to players, giving them more strategic freedom and ways to win," she explained in a press release.

According to Pragmatic Play, Free Bet Blackjack uses the Push on 22 rule.

Per the rule, "active player bets settled as a push if the dealer busts on 22, except for winning blackjack hands."

The new dynamic take on the fan-favorite table game also brings popular side bets such as Perfect Pairs and 21+3.

The newly released Free Bet Blackjack complements Pragmatic Play's growing portfolio of quality games.

Other popular titles, featuring the fan-favorite Double Down After Split feature, include Bet Behind Pro Blackjack, Privé Lounge Blackjack, as well as Blackjack X.

Only recently, Pragmatic Play announced the release of the action-packed slot, Zeus vs Hades – Gods of War 250.
