I think free Bet Blackjack is a variant of traditional blackjack where the casino offers "free bets" on certain doubles and splits. Players can double down on hard 9, 10, or 11 and split any pairs except 10-value cards without risking additional chips. If the player wins, they receive payouts as if they had placed the extra bet.

You are absolutely correct! Free Bet Blackjack is a popular variant of traditional blackjack that offers players the opportunity to make certain doubles and splits for free. Here's a breakdown of how Free Bet Blackjack works in more detail:
1. **Free Doubles**: In Free Bet Blackjack, players can double down on hard 9, 10, or 11 for free. This means that when a player has a total of 9, 10, or 11 with their initial two cards, they can choose to double down without risking any additional chips. If the player wins the hand, they will receive the payout as if they had placed the extra bet.
2. **Free Splits**: Players can also split pairs for free in Free Bet Blackjack. This includes splitting any pairs except for 10-value cards (e.g., pairs of 10s, Jacks, Queens, or Kings). Similar to free doubles, when a player chooses to split a pair, they do not need to place an additional bet. If they win the hand, they will be paid out as if they had wagered the extra bet.
3. **Push 22 Rule**: One key rule in Free Bet Blackjack is the Push 22 rule. If the dealer busts with a total of 22, any remaining player hands that are still in play will push rather than win. This rule acts as a compensation for the free doubles and splits offered in the game.
4. **Payouts**: In Free Bet Blackjack, the standard payouts for winning hands remain the same as in traditional blackjack. Winning hands typically pay 1:1, while blackjack (an Ace and a 10-value card) usually pays 3:2.
Overall, Free Bet Blackjack adds an exciting twist to the traditional game by offering players the chance to make additional bets for free on certain hands. This variant can be a fun and rewarding option for players looking to try something new in the world of blackjack.
