Introduction

Smart live casino closed monday

Smart Live blackjack's key point of differentiation from most other blackjack offerings on this site is the fact that is a 'for television' game, broadcast not only via the Smart Live Website, but also on a number of cable channels for UK subscribers. It is more like a game show than a casino gambling experience; the casino actually calls its croupiers 'presenters', and may not be the ideal option for blackjack purists.

They now also have a traditional 7 seat game, which will please the blackjack purists.

Television broadcast

For UK players, the game is currently broadcast on SKY and Freesat dedicated channels and will no doubt be rolled out to other cable and potentially free-to-air channels in the future. While this fact presents an attractive offering for those with access, it is not without its shortcomings.

The obvious one is that most players around the world do not have a required subscription to enjoy this option. Further, game times presently are not 24/7 and quite limited. At the time of writing, blackjack was only available 6:00PM - 12:00AM (GMT) daily. These time restrictions apply to the site webcast as well.

Many players but only 1 player deal ('one-to-many' game)

In most other live blackjack games, you are dealt a hand that you play exclusively, as would happen in a casino. Most offer amulti-play format where you are allocated a seat at a virtual table (typically of 7) and each player plays his hand in turn as dealt by the dealer.

At Smart Live, the dealer (sorry, presenter) is dealing a single hand, but many players are playing this hand via the television broadcast or web. How is this possible? An excerpt from Smart Live's house rules reveals the answer...

'Our unique online interface allows you to play the hand your way while others play the hand differently. This means that while everyone will start with the same two cards, and the dealer will always start with the same starting card, the rest of the cards are not dealt to a particular hand. The cards are dealt into the middle of the table and are then assigned to whichever hand is appropriate based on your decisions. You will see this represented in your web browser. You will win or lose the hand based solely on the decisions you have taken; the decisions other people take will have no impact on your hand.'

This is a little confusing at first, but if you just remember the game is standard blackjack and your hand is clearly presented in the interface graphic, reconciling the layout of the actual cards on the actual table to yours and the dealers hand eventually makes sense after playing a few hands.

Video stream time lag

One aspect of the Smart Live's blackjack that was particularly annoying (as played/viewed via web browser), was the significant lag between the video vision and the cards presented on the interface graphic. In some cases the web-cast lag was so extreme that a hand had been completed according to the interface graphic, before the actual cards appeared on the table in the video stream.

Obviously this problem is internet connection related, but using the same connection speed at other live blackjack games this problem was not encountered (certainly not to this extent).

While this has no effect on your ability to play the game, it certainly detracts from the live gaming experience.

Free play

A great feature of this platform is the FREE PLAY option. You don't even need to register an account before playing for free here - guest players can get a feel for the game in free-play mode.

7 Seat Blackjack

A very welcome addition to Smart Live's game range. They call it 7 seat blackjack. You will know it as blackjack how it is usually played.

This game is also available on a limited broadcast schedule.

Unlimited Blackjack

This is the '1 to many' game described above.

What is annoying is the lag between the actual vision and the interface graphic display.

Here the graphic shows 3 cards already dealt, while the vision is still frozen on the dealer about to commence the deal!
