Spanish 21 is a popular variation of the classic Blackjack game most closely related to Pontoon.  The most notable difference is that a player always wins with a total of 21 versus the dealer's 21, and a natural blackjack for the player will beat the dealer's natural blackjack, paying 3 to 2.

Pontoon is another form of the classic casino favorite, Blackjack. This variation is closely related to Spanish 21 due to the various rule differentiations from traditional blackjack. The biggest difference is that the dealer does not receive his second card until all player hands are completed.

Super Fun 21 is another great variation of blackjack that can be, as the name implies, super fun! However, due to the extended payouts that are received for achieving specific hands, other traditional payouts are decreased, including the payout of 1 to 1 on a natural blackjack (unless it is produced in all diamonds, paying 2 to 1).

Bonus Blackjack is the one of the oldest side-bet variations of the classic blackjack game. Players are not obligated to make a side bet, but if they choose to do so, they can win some extremely lucrative payouts depending on the cards dealt to their original hand. Aside from the side bet option, the game is pretty standard, although there are a few interesting variations to the traditional rules.

Being the most popular card game in the world, Blackjack has inherited a lot of rule variations from many different sources around the world. Each of these rules will have an effect on the house edge, either positive or negative for the player.
