High-Roller Blackjack Player Wins $1.2M

The Salon Prive tables are reserved exclusively for high-rollers, so when a player wins, the payouts are usually quite large. However, this $1.2M blackjack win was certainly above average.

Sitting at the Prive Lounge Blackjack 7 table at Stake Casino, the unknown player wagered an incredible $600,059.98 on a single hand. While we don’t know the cards the player and the dealer got, we know he won the hand with a 2:1 payout. Therefore, he didn’t hit blackjack off the deal. 

A mega total of $1,200,119.95 ($600,059.98 bet + $600,059.98 winnings) was returned to the player.

A common misconception with blackjack is that players need to get as close to 21 as possible in order to hopefully win the hand. This is not wholly accurate. The true objective of blackjack is to beat the dealer, which can be done with any hand total if the dealer busts out.

If you’re new to this classic card game, there are a couple of things to consider before you play. Firstly, there are many variants of blackjack, with each one having slightly different rules. Therefore, you want to know what one you’re playing.

Also, with these different variations, the RTP changes. The best blackjack games offer RTPs higher than 99.0%, so these are the tables to play at. Finally, it’s worth learning about the optimal blackjack strategies. Knowledge of these will save you money the longer you play.
