How are the rules in Canadian blackjack different to normal blackjack?

[Julio88]

In Canadian blackjack, the rules are similar to those used in other parts of the world, but there are a few differences. First, the dealer always hits on a soft 17, which means that they take another card even if the total is 17 or lower. Another difference is that the dealer can take an early surrender—they don't have to take the hole card before making the decision to surrender. Additionally, players can double down after splitting, and re-splitting is allowed. Finally, the dealer stands on all 17s, meaning that they don't take any more cards once their total is 17 or higher.

The second card, sometimes referred to as the hole card is typically dealt face-down in Canadian blackjack games because the dealer typically only receives one initial card face-up. The American method, in which the dealer normally receives one face-up card and one face-down card, is different from this.

In general, the rules of Canadian blackjack are similar to those of standard blackjack played in other parts of the world. However, there may be some minor variations or specific rules that are more commonly found in Canadian casinos.
