Pick a table

Each table shows a minimum and maximum bet. Start where the minimum is a small share of your budget. Evolution and Pragmatic Play run the tables. See Evolution on Stake.

Seats

Blackjack tables have limited seats. Some live blackjack variants let extra players join a hand in other ways; the table's help panel says what that table allows. Our live blackjack guide explains it.

Join a live table

  1. Open the live casino lobby.
  2. Pick a game and a table with limits that fit.
  3. Wait for the betting window.
  4. Place chips before the timer ends.
  5. Leave between rounds.

Timers and missed rounds

If the timer runs out, your bet isn't placed. In blackjack, a missed decision usually follows a default rule. Check the table help for how that table handles it.

Manners

Keep chat polite. Dealers run the game. They can't help you win.
