Should you play it?

Underneath is the same eight deck game as Iconic21's classic tables, so the chart below still tells you how to play each hand. The bonus is the draw and the cost: every main bet carries a fee, and it only pays back on a run of four straight wins.

Play it if

  • You enjoy chasing a winning streak toward a bonus
  • You like a dealer who stands on soft 17
  • You play regularly; your streak is saved for 30 days

Variance profile

High. The fee is paid every round and comes back only on a run of four or five straight wins, so expect long dry spells between bonuses.

Basic strategy for this table

Worked out for these rules: 8 decks, dealer stands on soft 17, double on any two cards, double after split, one split with one card to each split Ace, no surrender, and the dealer checks for blackjack only with an Ace up, so a dealer blackjack under a 10 found after you act takes every bet except a player blackjack.

The Grand Bonus Blackjack mechanics do not change these plays. The special mechanics ride on winning the hand, and the fee is charged on every bet, but neither alters which decision wins the most on the cards. The house edge shown here is for the base game only; the fee and multiplier exchange raises the effective cost per round above it.

How Grand Bonus Blackjack works

1 Fee on every bet

Pay the bonus fee

A fee is added on top of your main bet each round, and a random multiplier is applied to it. Side bets carry no fee and do not count toward the streak.

2 4 wins in a row

Build a streak

Each main bet win moves you one step. A push leaves you where you were, a loss resets the streak, and a winning double counts as one win.

3 Mega or Grand

The fifth round decides

After four straight wins, lose the fifth round for the Mega Bonus or win it for the Grand Bonus. The Mega Bonus is 17% of the Grand.

Blackjack with a winning streak bonus

Grand Bonus Blackjack is Iconic21’s streak game: the blackjack is classic, and a fee on every main bet pays into two bonuses that only a run of wins unlocks. Win four main bets in a row and the fifth round decides your reward. Lose it and you collect the Mega Bonus; win it and you collect the Grand Bonus. The Mega Bonus is 17% of the Grand.

The rules

Eight decks, and the dealer stands on all 17s, soft 17 included. Blackjack pays 3:2, other wins pay even money, and insurance costs half your bet and pays 2:1. Double on any first two cards, also after a split; split once, with one card to each split Ace; no surrender. The dealer checks the hole card only with an Ace up. With a 10 up, a dealer blackjack shows after everyone has acted and takes every bet except a player blackjack, doubles and splits included. Ten cards without busting win automatically.

What the bonus costs

The fee is added on top of every main bet and cannot be switched off, though the second hand of a split pays none. Each round a random multiplier is applied to your fee, and the bonus resets when you lose a main bet. A push leaves your streak where it was, and your progress is saved for 30 days. Play the hands exactly as the chart below shows: the streak does not change the right move, it only adds the fee. Pairs and Poker 3 side bets are also offered; they carry no fee and do not count toward the streak.

Grand Bonus Blackjack FAQ

Do I lose my streak if I leave the table?

No. Your progress is saved for 30 days, so you can pick up where you left off. After 30 days without play it resets.

How does a split count toward the streak?

Win both hands, or win one and push the other, and the streak moves up one step. Win one and lose one, or push both, and it stays where it was. Lose both, or lose one and push the other, and it resets.
