At Masa, blackjack is something you play together: up to five friends share one table, each playing against the dealer instead of each other, and everyone reacts to every hit and bust on voice chat. Free Chips arrive every day, and they have no cash value.

How to play

  1. 1

    Place your bet. Everyone, including the dealer, gets two cards; one of the dealer’s cards stays face down.

  2. 2

    Number cards count their value, face cards 10, aces 1 or 11.

  3. 3

    Hit to take another card, or stand to keep your total. Go over 21 and you bust.

  4. 4

    Double down on your first two cards to double the bet and take exactly one more card. Split pairs into two hands.

  5. 5

    The dealer draws until reaching 17 or more, then stands.

Frequently asked questions

Does the dealer hit on soft 17?

No. At Masa the dealer stands on every 17, which is the friendlier rule for players.

How many decks are used?

A six-deck shoe, freshly shuffled for every round.

Can I split any pair?

Any two cards of the same value, up to four hands. Split aces get one card each.
