Badge tips

Be aware of the 5 minute time limit for Quickjack!

For the Blackjack Masquerade badge, be sure to check the "Pair Square" side bet each time the option comes up!

For Carnival of 7s, be sure to check the "Super 7" side bet each time the option comes up!

For Royal Matchmaker or Life is a Carnival, be sure to check the "Royal Match" side bet each time the option comes up!

For "get Blackjacks" badges, they must be dealt on the first two cards: you won't get badge credit if you're dealt a two-card 21 on a split.

Game tips

ALWAYS read a game's How to Play, and also check for a Hints or Tips tab and/or Tutorial. They do help!

This is casino-style blackjack (or 21), and the dealer will hit on anything under 17. Blackjacks or 5-card hands are automatic wins.

Blackjacks dealt on a split count as regular 21 so don't bother splitting aces if you're only playing to rank up.

Use the Tip button if you want to play using commonly accepted blackjack guidelines, or you can take chances that the cards will play against the odds.. it is Pogo after all, and they often do.

More about Blackjack Carnival

This game ranks up relatively slowly.

Gameplay is identical to Casino Island Blackjack, with the addition of side bets, and without its Bust Protector or Up Your Sleeve cards.
