1. When making college basketball picks, the algorithm factors in many variables like a team’s recent play, home/away splits, injuries, historical matchups and the betting odds for a game. If this isn’t making sense, that’s OK because Odds Shark has configured a few key terms to help you interpret and utilize the computer picks located above.
2. Wizard of Odds follows a classic pattern for a video slot game so far, but a few extra symbols on the reels that help spice up the game with some extra magic. The blue Crystal is the Wild card of the game, which simply means that it can substitute for any of the basic symbols mentioned previously and help create extra winning combinations along.

This is our first blackjack game and trainer and I'm proud to finally add our version 2 with enhanced graphics and the ability to learn how to count cards to my website. The game is mostly self-explanatory. If you make an inferior play, the game will warn you first. I recommend that before you play for real money both online in person that you practice on the game until you very rarely are warned you a making an inferior play. If doubling or splitting is mathematically the correct play, but you don't have enough chips, the game will give the best advice for what you can afford to do. Do not change rules mid-hand. If you do, the change will not take effect until the next hand. The advice is based on my own analysis and basic strategy tables for one, two, and four+ decks. The deck(s) is(are) shuffled after every hand.

If you find any bugs, please contact me. A screenshot would be appreciated if you claim the game is misplaying a hand. I get a lot of incorrect reports that the advice given is incorrect. This usually can be explained by the user not using the correct basic strategy for the rules selected. I have also had many comments about the advice on a player 16, composed of 3 or more cards, against a 10. As a rule of thumb, the player should stand in that situation. However, that is a basic strategy exception. The game only knows basic strategy. Also, please note that it is a standard blackjack rule that split aces get one card each. If one of them is a ten, it is not a blackjack, it is just 21 points. That is how blackjack is usually played.

I would like to thank JB for his outstanding work on this game, and Dingo Systems for the cards.

We constantly maintain a database of all the casino bonuses from the hundreds of online casinos we have reviewed, and we note which bonuses allow blackjack to count towards the wagering requirements.

Blackjack Online FAQ

Q1: What are the rules in online blackjack games?

A: As in land casinos, they vary. Online help files are notoriously badly written and incomplete. The Wizard of Odds, we try hard to keep an accurate listing of rules for every brand of software and live dealers. You may find such rules, for every game, in our Software Review section.

Q2: Generally speaking, are the rules better in land or online casinos?

A: All things considered, I would say they are better online. For one thing, you almost never see a blackjack (ace and 10) pay 6 to 5 only online, while this is becoming the norm in land casinos in the United States.

Q3: What are the typical rules at live dealer casinos online?

A: Live dealer rules are very similar to what you would see in a land casino. The typical rules are:

• Eight decks
• Dealer stands on soft 17
• Dealer does NOT peek for blackjack
• No surrender
• Player may double on any two cards
• Player may double after a split
• No re-splitting

Be careful double or splitting if the dealer has a ten or ace showing. At most live dealer brands, you will lose everything if the dealer gets a blackjack. Under this 'no peek' rule, the only time you should put more money out on the table against a potential dealer blackjack is to split two aces against a dealer 10.

The house edge under the rules above is 0.61%.

Q4: When are the cards shuffled in online blackjack?

A: In a fully electronic game, they are probably shuffled after every hand. In a live dealer game, they are usually shuffled about half way through the shoe.

Q5: Oh really?! Even with only 50% penetration, what is to prevent me from counting cards against a live dealer?

A: I've asked this question of some people in the business. Nobody would tell me exactly how they protect their game against counters, but they assured me that they do. If I ran a live dealer casino, I would run a test of every player to see how their bet size is correlated to the true count. Then I would carefully examine the play of such players with a strong correlation.

Q6: How do 'probably fair' casinos accomplish so-called in blackjack?

A: It is rather involved, but here is typically how it is done:

1. The casino will generate a random long string of characters, called a Server Seed, hash it, and give the hashed result to the player BEFORE he makes a bet.
2. The player chooses a string of characters himself, called the Client Seed, or accepts a random default provided by the casino.
3. The client and server seed are combined and hashed.
4. The hashed result from step 3 will be parsed somehow, with the hexadecimal characters converted to base 10 and then mapped to specific cards if in a desired range.
5. The game will deal cards according to their order in the hash from step 3. This hash should be long enough that running out of cards would be almost impossible.
6. After the hand, the casino should reveal the Client Seed, which the player may verify hashes to the result provided before the bet. It is then a tedious process above to do all the math to convert the hash to actual cards, but the player may do that if he wishes.

I go into this in greater depth for a particular brand in my page on Blackjack (Encrypted Version).

Q7: I don't want to bother jumping through all those hoops to verify fairness in an encrypted game. Do you think that just the ability to verify fairness is enough to keep the casinos honest?

A: No. Encrypted or not, a casino could cheat the player in any game, except sports betting, any time they wished. In the case of an encrypted casino, the operator could choose a Server Seed that causes the player to lose after the bet is made. If the player catches them in a hash mismatch, which I think very few players bother to check, the casino can simply ignore the accusation or deny it without comment. This is exactly what happened to me at Wixiplay.

Q8: Your story aside, how common is cheating at blackjack, or any game, online?

A: In my opinion, it is quite rare.

Q9: How can I improve my odds of not being cheated?

A: There are hundreds, perhaps thousands, of Internet casinos out there. In the absence of any serious government regulation, the industry has done a pretty good job of regulating itself. Between legitimate watchdog affiliate sites and some common sense, here are some ways to choose a reputable brand to trust with your hard-earned dollar:

• Read the fine print. Most casinos have a good looking main page, but dig around the more obscure pages like terms & conditions. If you see a lot of spelling and grammatical mistakes, that should set off a red flag.
• Ping customer support. If you can't think of your own question, ask anything, for example, 'Do you accept players from Kyrgyzstan?' See how long it takes for them to reply and measure their professionalism and courtesy of their reply.
• Check reputable affiliate sites. Many affiliate sites promote whoever pays the most, but the good ones are picky about who they promote and will intervene in the unlikely event of a player dispute. We would like to think of ourselves as one of the good ones. A good way to avoid the worst of casinos is to check the blacklists of reputable affiliates.
• Smart small. Players should always bet in moderation anywhere, but especially when opening a new account online with an unfamiliar brand. Dink around with a small deposit and small bets until you have built up some trust.

Q10: Any other words of advice before playing blackjack online?

A: Whether playing online or in a land casino, use the appropriate basic strategy for the rules offered. The Wizard of Odds blackjack strategy calculator will give the correct basic strategy for almost any set of rules.
A much greater problem than outright cheating is online casinos faulting players on a technicality in the rules and seizing whatever funds they deem appropriate. This is a particularly a problem with bonuses. The terms and conditions for bonuses can be pages long and very restrictive in terms of allowed games, bet sizes, and types of bets. If the player loses, nobody ever checks, but after a win and withdrawal request, suddenly the play may be subject to careful review for compliance. Never assume that because you were invited to play a bonus via Email that you're eligible for it. Casinos typically blast everybody in their list. An easy rule to overlook is when a bonus is eligible for 'new money' only. Don't expect the casino to enforce this rule when entering a couple code, but do expect it when you actually make a withdrawal and they look for any reason to deny it.
While bonuses can make your money last much longer and increase your chances of winning, they are a minefield in terms of compliance. Read the rules carefully. If in doubt the way you play is compliant, then don't ask for the bonus in the first place.

The Super Bowl marks the biggest betting event of the year in the US. With Super Bowl LV wrapped up, bettors can already start looking ahead to next year’s NFL championship game.

Betting on the Super Bowl marks one of the most popular sports bets that fans make every year. Because it is one of the most-watched and wagered events in the country, oddsmakers are very careful where they place their lines. Understanding NFL Super Bowl odds is important for every budding sports bettor.

Sportsbooks use a host of different factors to include in NFL odds. Such as strength of schedule, previous season success, additions on the roster, and past history to show the likelihood to win the big game.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers routed the Kansas City Cheifs in the 2021 Super Bowl, as the Bucs cruised to a 31-9 win. Sportsbooks oddsmakers installed Kansas City as the favorite, with average odds sitting at -171.

The Tom Brady-backed Buccaneers went into the big game as the underdog. Books set those odds at +147, giving Tampa Bay a 40% chance at the 2021 Vince Lombardi Trophy. Bettors who took that line cashed in big.

Odds To Win The Super Bowl – When Was There The Most Value?

Super Bowl odds always change throughout the season. Be sure to check continually for updates as well as use our automated chart to track the changes in 7, 14, and 21-day intervals. The NFL futures odds are updated daily.

Sportsbooks install futures odds on next year’s championship as soon as the Super Bowl ends. For instance, DraftKings Sportsbook already sets the Chiefs (+550) as the Super Bowl LVI favorite, followed by the Buccaneers (+900) and Green Bay Packers (+1200).

Now that the Super Bowl champion is decided, let us see how the odds went in totality. This is to say, when should we have bet on the Chiefs and when should we have bet on the Buccaneers. Keeping track of these odds is crucial during season-long bets because buying stock in these teams (placing bets) is how you increase profitability. There was plenty of value on these teams at points if timed correctly.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers +2800

You read that correctly, when Tom Brady signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, BetMGM had the Buccaneers at +2800. That means that a $10 dollar bet would net you $280 in profit on the Bucs Super Bowl win.

During the season, the Buccaneers fluctuated greatly. However, during week 11, the Buccaneers were as high as +1650 to win the Super Bowl, a phenomenal value that late in the season.

Kansas City Chiefs +600

The Chiefs were an uphill battle when betting the Super Bowl since their week 3 dominating win over the Ravens. The Ravens came in at +500 to win the Super Bowl prior to the season. When the Chiefs came out motivated and dominated the Ravens, they plummeted from +600 to under +400 at some books.

Overall, it would appear that the best time to bet a team to win the Super Bowl is prior to the season. This is easier said than done obviously. However, the Chiefs’ odds dropped considerably once the season started. Looking at the schedule for a favorite and projecting how many wins they will have is very important.

COVID-19 Affecting Gameplay

The 2021 Super Bowl odds changed dramatically as the nation learned how COVID-19 affected gameplay throughout the season. The NFL powered through the 2020-21 schedule, however, sometimes rescheduling games for Tuesdays and even Wednesdays in reaction to positive COVID-19 tests.

The NFL experienced plenty of positive tests this season for COVID-19. The league’s proactive stance in attempting to contact trace to stop the spread and save games played out as a very successful tactic for the NFL.

There were some pitfalls, however, as they contemplated canceling games. At one point, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported via Twitter that the NFL considered adding a Week 18. The details of how week 18 would have played out are still unknown. What we do know, is that the NFL ultimately didn’t need a Week 18.

While the NFL approved new protocols in the case of canceled games, it was clear that they had no interest in doing so. The NFL played the Ravens vs. Steelers game on a Wednesday when it was originally scheduled six days prior, on Thanksgiving.

Furthermore, the Broncos’ entire quarterback room was placed on the COVID-19 list making them ineligible for week 12. Many might forget this but it was the strangest game I remember in the NFL. The result was starting a wide receiver at quarterback and being embarrassed 31-3. The NFL had zero interest in canceling games.

The playoffs were not played in a bubble as the NBA did for the 2020 NBA Finals playoffs. This was rather surprising considering players were consistently testing positive for COVID-19.

The NFL did not hit many snags in the playoffs. There were not any game-changing COVID-19 positive tests. Hopefully, we’ll never see another NFL season affected by COVID-19 as much as the league experienced last season.

Where Can I Bet On The Super Bowl Online

If you want to bet on the Super Bowl online you must be located in one of the states that permit legal online sports betting.

The list of states where online sports betting is legalized changes regularly. Each of these states already has live online sportsbooks ready to take Super Bowl futures bets. Most also have retail sportsbooks for local betting.

States like New Jersey and Pennsylvania set the stage for online Super Bowl Betting early on. States like Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Tennessee, Nevada, and West Virginia all launched online sports betting. Michigan and Virginia became the two most recent states to launch online sports betting.

Each state has different sportsbooks that are legally allowed to operate in a given state. For example, BetMGM is legal in almost a dozen states, as are FanDuel and DraftKings.

How To Choose The Best Sportsbook For Super Bowl Betting

Many fans would be keen to use risk-free bet offers for a free shot at the Super Bowl winner at advantageous odds.

For instance, if you bet on the Buccaneers to win the Super Bowl before they signed Tom Brady you would get odds near +3000. These are extremely strong odds and gives your bet of $500 the chance to turn into $15,500.

It is important to differentiate which sportsbooks have the best odds. Sharps typically have multiple sportsbooks that they are registered with. They will flip between the sports betting apps to make a decision that is the most profitable.

For example, if PointsBet has the Buccaneers at +2900 but BetMGM had the odds at +2600, the seemingly small difference in odds is worth $1,500 in this particular bet.

Each sportsbook is different based on the available odds. Some charge a higher vig and some odds change because big amounts of money are being thrown around. If large wagers are placed on the Chiefs to win the Super Bowl, their odds will begin to change so the books can adjust to the amount of liability.

Where Can I Bet On The Super Bowl In Vegas?

Las Vegas is one of the top cities for betting on sports in the country. Mobile betting is not ideal, however, as fans must go to a casino first before being able to register for a mobile sportsbook.

Vegas is known for its wide array of casinos and resorts that get herds of visitors from across the country. The plethora of options on the Vegas Strip will make the fan experience even more fun whether you are betting on live events already in progress or before gameplay. Going to Las Vegas sportsbooks to place Super Bowl bets is very common.

MGM Grand, Caesar’s Palace, and Golden Nugget are very popular Las Vegas casinos. The Westgate SuperBook, Caesars Palace, Wynn, South Point, Venetian, and many other Las Vegas casinos host sportsbooks. All of these venues offer numerous ways to bet on the NFL.

How Are Super Bowl Betting Odds Calculated?

Bettors that understand how odds are broken-down and calculated can make bets more educated. There are so many different factors that play into the Super Bowl favorites. More often than not, the best teams are going given the best odds. But this is not always the case.

Before the 2020-21 season, bookmakers placed the Chiefs and Ravens as the Super Bowl favorites, with both teams at around +600 odds. The books based Baltimore’s odds on the Ravens’ strong 14-2 regular season from the previous year, after which the Ravems were knocked out of the playoffs by the Tennessee Titans in a big upset.

Other factors will include the difficulty of their regular season schedule, additions to the roster from the previous year, and of course, the overall talent on the roster. When the Chiefs won the Super Bowl in February of 2020, they were +600 before the start of the season.

If you signed up for PointsBet Sportsbook or FanDuel Sportsbook, you were given a $500 risk-free bet. If you placed your risk-free bet on the Chiefs your $500 bet would profit $3,000 if Kansas City followed up with another Super Bowl win in 2021.

Just days after Kansas City’s Super Bowl LV loss, DraftKings Sportsbook set the Cheifs as the favorite to win Super Bowl 56. Despite the lopsided loss to the Bucs, the Chiefs clearly still hold status as the league’s most respected team according to the sportsbooks.

NFL Super Bowl LV Odds Breakdown

The Chiefs opened up as (-3) favorites for Super Bowl LV. Tom Brady played in his 10th Super Bowl which is unbelievable in and of itself. In a battle of superstars quarterbacks from different generations, Brady notched his record-setting seventh Super Bowl win.

Before the game, Bonus.com evaluated each team’s chances of covering the point spread:

Odds provided by DraftKings Sportsbook

Kansas City Chiefs (-3)

Super Bowl Odds For The Chiefs

• The Chiefs went down 9-0 early in the first quarter against the Buffalo Bills and ended up blowing the Bills out. When tested, the Chiefs are the most explosive team I can remember seeing in all of my years of watching football.
• The only way to beat the Chiefs is to keep the ball away from Mahomes. Big plays are not going to win you games. A slow, methodical approach to the game is the only hope to beat the Chiefs.
• The Chiefs opened up as 3 point favorites in the Super Bowl and climbed to 3.5 at some books.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers (+3)

Super Bowl Odds For The Buccaneers

• Tom Brady had three touchdown passes in the first half and looked horrific in the second half. However, he is 43 years old and has two weeks to prepare for the biggest game of his life. It has been Super Bowl or bust all year, they now have their shot.
• The Packers were the best team all season long in the NFC. Rodgers was the NFC MVP and had plenty of chances to win the game. The Bucs cannot give out those chances again. Mahomes will make them pay every time.
• The Buccaneers have the first-ever home Super Bowl. The Super Bowl will take place in Tampa Bay so there is a slight edge to having a home game. The difference should not be too large, there will not be many fans in attendance.

NFL Super Bowl Odds And Betting

Moneyline

Also known as a “straight bet” a Moneyline bet just chooses the winner of the game. When betting on the Moneyline, the odds are usually not exact. Typically there are favorites and underdogs. When the Chiefs and Buccaneers matched up for the Super Bowl, the Chiefs were around -171 and the Buccaneers +147.

When comparing NFL odds, a plus symbol means that the option is an underdog. The minus symbol means the option is a favorite to win. Moneyline betting odds with a “+” notation are relatively simple to calculate. The +147 line on the Buccaneers, for example, means a $100 wager would net $147 in profit. In other words, the $100 bet would return a total of $247 (the $147 in profit and the original $100 bet).

Point Spreads

Points spread bets or “handicap bets” are when sportsbooks put teams against a number that they must win or lose by. For the Chiefs, they were -3.5 against the Buccaneers at some sportsbooks during Super Bowl LV. Had they won by three points and you bet on -3.5, the bet would lose. Conversely, if the Buccaneers lost by three and you had +3.5, your bet would win.

Over/Under (Totals)

Betting on an Over/Under or total points bet means you are not betting on any team. If you bet over you are betting on the combined number of points between the two teams.

Bookmakers set a number, and bettors need to decide whether the game will go over or under that number. For Super Bowl LV, bookmakers set the Over/Under at 55.5, and the final combined score of 31-9 (40 total points) paid off bets on the under.

Parlays

When placing a parlay bet, you are betting on two or more things to happen. To get paid on your bet, all of the outcomes must occur in a given parlay. If you parlayed the Buccaneers to win with Under 55.5 your bet won. Conversely, if you bet Chiefs to win and Under 55.5 your bet lost, as the Chiefs losing made the parlay a losing ticket.

What Is An NFL Futures Bet?

The futures market in sports betting is a huge part of the industry. The possible bet types range from championship winners to divisional winners, and even MVP candidates.

For instance, just days after Super Bowl LV, DraftKings Sportsbooks started giving odds on next year’s Super Bowl champion. Futures bets on the Super Bowl LVI champion opened with Kansas City (+550), Tampa Bay (+900), and Green Bay (+900) among the favorites.

Super Bowl Prop Bets

Prop bets are becoming more popular in the sports betting world. And there is no more popular betting event than the Super Bowl. Super Bowl prop bets go hand-in-hand because of the creativity involved and the added excitement for a much-hyped game.

A prop bet is a bet on an occurrence or non-occurrence of an event happening in a game, match, or season.

Super Bowl LV Available Prop Bets

Most Super Bowl prop bets are set once the teams are decided for the matchup. Until then, sportsbooks might get creative about what prop bets they start to offer before that time. Due to how unique this NFL season is, the prop bets could be more creative than ever.

The sportsbooks offered several interesting prop bets for Super Bowl LV:

Odds are provided by DraftKings Sportsbook

Super Bowl MVP Odds

Patrick Mahomes: +100

Tom Brady: +210

Tyreek Hill: +1200

Travis Kelce: +1300

Leonard Fournette: +2500

Clyde Ewards-Helaire: +2800

Super Bowl MVP is one of the most popular bets for the Super Bowl. Eight of the last 11 Super Bowl MVPs have been quarterbacks, as Tom Brady won the Super Bowl LV MVP award.

Coin Toss Odds

Heads – 103

Tails -103

Betting on Heads or Tails is a popular bet on the Super Bowl. This is a pure 50% bet but some books are still collecting a vig. This bet could be done anywhere anytime so the modest vig from sportsbooks is worth avoiding.

To Win Coin Toss And Game Odds

Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Yes +355 No -500

Kansas City Chiefs: +205 No -265

This bet immediately popped up for me because the parlayed vigorish isn’t very high. This could be another way to get juicier odds on a team that you think will win. The Chiefs are -167 on the moneyline and the Buccaneers are +145 to win.

Total Players To Attempt A Pass

Over 2,5 Players : +165 Under 2.5 Players: -215

I didn’t see an argument for under at that price. We saw Tom Brady constantly throwback to a wide receiver throughout his years with the Patriots. Super Bowls are always going to bring out massive amounts of creativity.

Final Play Of The Game To Be A Kneel

Yes: -200 No: +159

Unless the game ends in a Hail Mary or last-second field goal attempt, it is hard to imagine the game ending in anything other than a kneel… right?

Past Super Bowl Prop Bets

The Westgate Las Vegas, an oddsmaker, started getting creative with prop bets on the Super Bowl. Now, every sportsbook puts out Super Bowl prop bets. Even websites likeCBS Sports, which does not cover gambling regularly, cover Super Bowl prop bets.

One popular prop bet for the Super Bowl is how long it will take the singer to complete the National Anthem. Leading up to Super Bowl LIV, singer Demi Lovato sang the National Anthem for the Conor McGregor vs Floyd Mayweather fight in 2018. She clocked in at well over 2 minutes for that performance.

The expectation would be that she would do the same at the Super Bowl. Shockingly, Demi Lovato went under 2 minutes at +180 for the performance. This bet is offered every year and will assuredly be offered this year too.

NFL Season-Long Prop Bets

In addition to Super Bowl prop bets, many sportsbooks offer season-long NFL prop bets. These can be bets on a particular team or a particular player’s performances and stats over a season. In football, many of these NFL prop bets revolve around injuries.

For example, if at the start of the season, you bet on Dak Prescott to lead the league in passing yards, you were out of luck. He suffered a season-ending compound ankle fracture in Week 5.

It is impossible to bet on who will or won’t get injured. However, it is best to grab a player who is rarely injured that you believe in. Avoid players who are often injured or have soft tissue injuries regularly.

How The NFL Draft Affects Super Bowl Odds

In some cases, the NFL Draft can shift the odds one way or another. For instance, the Chiefs drafted Clyde Edwards-Helaire at the backend of the first round by the Chiefs. He ended up as a major contributor and able to help the Chiefs backfield.

This is rare, however. Teams that are competing for a title usually do not have top draft picks to get an impact player. The Chiefs would have been the favorites to win the Super Bowl preseason whether they had Edwards-Helaire or not.

Strategies For Super Bowl Betting

Alternate Lines

Using Alternate Lines can be extremely profitable when it comes to sports betting. When a line comes out from the sportsbook, it can move in many different directions. If you like the Super Bowl line at the beginning of the week, it could be wise to jump on it early with an alternate spread to increase profitability.

Fade The Public?

Super Bowl lines move all over the place because it is one of the most bet on sporting events of the year. Fading the public is a betting strategy that goes with the initial betting line that oddsmakers put out. The idea is to not follow where the public is betting and to always stick with the professionals.

What Is Middling In Sports Betting?

A betting strategy that most casual bettors would not know, Middling is a strategy that mandates multiple wagers on a game. It is not perfect but it can be quite effective. The best way to explain middling is with an example.

• You place a bet on the New York Giants at -4 vs the Dallas Cowboys
• *The line moves to Giants -7*
• You then place a second wager on the Cowboys +7.
• It is called middling because the bettor wants the best of both outcomes. They want the Cowboys to lose by less than 7 and the Giants to win by more than 4.
