Dragonfish Blackjack Software
In 2007, a full decade after the company was founded, the Gibraltar based 888
Holdings had grown to become one of the world’s leading online gambling service
providers.
Although the company was already responsible for designing hundreds of online
casino games, including virtual slots, table games, and specialty offerings, 888
Holdings made a splash that year through a major acquisition.
By absorbing the GlobalCom Bingo network for $42 million, 888 Holdings
obtained the foundation for the comprehensive business to business (b2b) online
gambling platform known today as Dragonfish.
Primarily a sports betting platform at its inception, 888 Holdings eventually
expanded to encompass the full spectrum of online gambling offerings. And while
the Dragonfish subsidiary specialized primary in streamlining the “backend”
operations for online casinos, the company’s previous infrastructure included
software designed to power poker and bingo networks.
Over the years since then, Dragonfish software has been integrated by dozens
of online casinos in various global markets. The success of Dragonfish
eventually prompted 888 Holdings executives to expand and split the brand in
early 2016.
The Dragonfish name was preserved for its b2b services and bingo network,
while an offshoot called Casino Flex was introduced to cover traditional casino
games.
Yaniv Sherman, who serves as senior vice president and head of business
development for 888 Holdings, issued a press release to explain the impetus for
creating Casino Flex:
“The firm’s experience with new partners such as Foxy Casino and Moon
Games gave it the confidence to repackage the product. We had a great run in
2015 with several partners launching casino sites to complement their bingo
proposition, and others who went straight to casino with no bingo.
We used this traction and momentum to rebrand and mainly differentiate it
from the bingo instant games, as we see a designated pool of operators who are
interested in the Dragonfish platform and game portfolio
Casino Flex is a different offering in the sense that it can cater to
smaller operations and scale up as they grow. This is a different approach,
which worked very well for us on the Dragonfish Bingo Network and now we are
carrying that into the casino market.”
Today, the Casino Flex extension of Dragonfish software is used to power more
than 300 unique casino game titles – including a handful of blackjack offerings.
Having only recently committed to designing casino games specifically, the
reincarnated Dragonfish / Casino Flex brand – herein known as Dragonfish for the
sake of clarity – is still building out its product portfolio. Simply put, that
means the current selection of blackjack titles is being updated regularly,
either through enhanced features for existing games, or entirely new additions.
The objective of this page is to provide readers with an in depth review of
Dragonfish blackjack software. We’ll start out with a full listing of the online
casino platforms where the company’s software can be found, before breaking down
each and every one of the blackjack variants on the menu.
Affiliated Online Casinos
The following online casinos are built on the Dragonfish software engine:
- 777 Casino
- 888 Casino
- BlingCity Casino
- Costa Games Casino
- Fantastic Spins Casino
- Foxy Casino
- Jester Jackpots Casino
- Lotos Casino
- Lucky Reels Club Casino
- Moon Games Casino
- Secret Slots Casino
- Shanghai Spins Casino
- Slot Crazy
- Slots Angel Casino
- Spinzilla Casino
- Tip Top Bingo Casino
- Total Gold Casino
- Vegas Spins Casino
- Welcome Slots Casino
- Wicked Jackpots Casino
- Wink Slots Casino
These sites are considered to be small boutique enterprises within the
stratified online casino industry. So while they can’t compete with the big boys
like Betfair and Bovada, these sites specialize in serving niche markets.
On another note, every one of these client casinos has made the choice to
restrict access to American players. This prohibition is based on the murky
legal situation regarding online gambling in the U.S., where the Unlawful
Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA) of 2006 still bans the pursuit
nationwide. Even as individual states like Nevada, New Jersey, and Delaware have
legalized their own online gambling industries, federal law in the U.S.
technically forbids online gambling business from operating.
This means the Dragonfish software platform is essentially off limits for
anybody trying to play from U.S. soil.
List of Basic Blackjack Games
As we mentioned already, the Dragonfish software system was originally built
to host online bingo rooms, and later on, a poker network.
Today, the Casino Flex expansion has put a priority on classic casino gambles
like the slots and table games. And while the company spreads nearly 100 slot
titles, the Dragonfish blackjack menu is much more limited.
At the moment, Dragonfish software is equipped to run the following five
different blackjack games:
- American Blackjack
- Classic Blackjack
- Multihand Blackjack
- High Limit Blackjack
Multihand - Jackpot Blackjack
(Crazy Blackjack)
Each game title describes the product quite accurately, and we’ll take a
detailed dive into the rules for all five in the Rules and Gameplay Conditions
section a little later on.
For now though, you should know that the Multihand concept simply refers to
the ability to play several “spots” on the table, or multiple hands on the same
deal. Just picture sitting down to an empty table in Las Vegas and putting chips
down for two or more hands, and you’ll get the idea.
The High Limit proviso is also easy to grasp, as this game increases the
minimum and maximum betting limits while catering to high rollers.
Finally, the Jackpot Blackjack title is the one used by Dragonfish in its
promotional material, but the words “Crazy Blackjack” are emblazoned on the
virtual felt. So you may see the game listed under either title, but in any
case, the game is nothing more than basic blackjack with three optional side
bets added in.
Once again, we’ll run through the gameplay structure and important rules for
each of these five games down the road. But before we do, let’s examine the
visual experience you can expect to find when loading up a Dragonfish blackjack
game.
Graphics and Animations
Befitting the software development bona fides of a company like 888 Holdings,
the Dragonfish blackjack product is well designed and visually appealing.
Everything you see on the main game screen has been included to replicate the
look and feel of a brick and mortar casino’s blackjack table. The felt is shaded
in deep green, complete with colored print declaring essential game rules like
the 3 to 2 payout on player blackjacks.
The display screen is quite vibrant, featuring multicolored chips in the
dealer’s tray, card backs in a nice blue hue that matches real Bicycle brand
playing cards, and other splashes that manage to catch your eye. Both the red
and black used to show suits are crisp and clear, and everything about the card
faces is designed to make gameplay smooth and seamless.
You won’t be caught craning your neck to see which card hit the dealer’s
hand, because the Dragonfish card face graphics are slightly larger than the
industry norm. Think those large print playing cards your grandmother uses for
bridge, but not so boxy and overbearing.
If we have one complaint about the card face graphics, it would concern the
face cards in the deck.
Many competing software firms have set their face card graphics up to match
the ornate images found on genuine playing cards. But the Dragonfish design team
has foregone the typical “suicide king” and other figures of royal nobility,
opting instead for a plain jane card face which simply shows the suit and a
capital letter (J, Q, K).
Another nice touch that we appreciated was the inclusion of a wood grained
railing which lines the player’s half of the semicircular table. This railing
comes complete with grooved depressions for holding chips, and even cup holders
for that virtual vodka on the rocks.
Of course, this isn’t some virtual reality online casino where you’ll be
interacting with the on screen accoutrements, but they’re a nice touch
nonetheless.
In terms of animations, the chips you’ll be betting with stack up one on top
of the next, rather than simply displaying a wager sizing underneath. This is
another step up from the industry norm, allowing players to feel the weight of
an increased wager or double down just by looking at the neatly stacked chips.
When the cards are being dealt out – from a multiple deck shoe near the
dealer’s space, yet another ode to realism offered by Dragonfish software – the
animations are fluid and flowing. You won’t be bothered by the skips and jumps
which plague inferior online casino software systems, which is always nice. And
those smooth animations are also a relief for those players who don’t like the
idea of a computer “glitch” timed perfectly with their unlikely bust card.
You have a much better idea now about how Dragonfish blackjack games look, so
let’s move on to the most important aspect of their design: how they play.
Gameplay Interface
For experienced online blackjack players, loading up a Dragonfish blackjack
game screen for the first time reveals a familiar interface layout.
Along with the aforementioned flourishes like the dealer’s tray and shoe, and
the antique table railing that evokes Downtown Las Vegas’ older haunts, the
screen contains your basic controls.
Down in the lower right hand corner of the screen you’ll find five separate
chip graphics, each with their own denomination and color scheme:
- $1 – White with red
and green stripes - $5 – Red with orange
and blue stripes - $25 – Green with blue
and yellow stripes - $100 – Black with
yellow and red stripes - $500 – Purple with
yellow stripes
By pointing and clicking on a chip graphic (let’s say the red $5 as an
example), you’ll essentially pick that chip up for betting purposes. From there,
you’ll be looking for one of the rectangular squares labeled “Place Bet,” which
is where wagers for that hand spot will be placed.
Clicking, sliding, and clicking again on the Place Bet square will put a
single chip up as your wager for that hand spot. You can click a second time to
double the bet, while a third click will add a third chip, and so on.
Another way to place your wagers involves clicking, holding, and dragging the
chip graphic across the screen to the Place Bet square.
However you decide to make your bets, however, you can always toggle between
different chip denominations to achieve the desired result. In other words,
rather than clicking seven times with a $5 chip to bet $35, you can just do it
twice for $10, before adding a single green $25 chip to complete the wager.
You’ll learn about the minimum and maximum betting limits in the next
section.
As you place your bets, pay attention to the lower left hand corner of the
game screen, which will show two displays: BET and BAL.
The first display shows your current combined bet total all hands played on
each deal. This BET display will adjust in real time as you put up or take down
betting chips.
The second display is for your total balance, or the bankroll you’ve brought
to bear for that particular game. This BAL display will update in real time upon
the conclusion of each hand and settlement of associated wagers.
Once you’ve selected wager sizes for one (or more) hands, you may want to
scale some of those back, or even remove them entirely. Most software platforms
outfit their blackjack and table games with a “Remove Bet” button or similar
function, but unfortunately, we weren’t able to find that on the Dragonfish
client.
This may be due to our use of a demo table (due to the restriction on US
customers), but we’re confident that the fully functional tables you’ll be using
will have the essential Remove Bet feature somewhere on the screen.
With your bet(s) in place, the game officially begins when you click on the
“Deal” prompt flashing on screen. One click here will direct the virtual dealer
to begin doling out cards to get the blackjack action underway.
Those cards will be dealt out in traditional fashion, coming to the spot on
the dealer’s direct left – which will be the right hand side of the game screen
from your perspective. The deal then moves counterclockwise around the table
(again, from the player’s perspective).
You’ll get one card face up for each spot on the table, before the dealer
takes their own “up” card. Then, you’ll receive a second card face up for each
hand, while the dealer’s second card comes face down. This is the dealer’s
“hole” card, and it’s concealment provides the partial information element that
makes this game so much fun.
With all hands now distributed, your attention will turn to the main game
controls found in the lower center area of the screen:
- Double
- Split
- Stand
- Hit
These controls are self-explanatory for anyone who has ever played a hand of
blackjack, so we’ll assume you know the ropes by now. But just in case you’re a
raw rookie just discovering the beautiful game of blackjack, head here to our
full rules page to brush up on the basics (link to main BJ page here).
After you’ve received a two card starting hand, you’ll notice a small box
with a number inside appear next to your cards. This box will read anywhere
between 2 and 21, and it simply reflects your current hand total at the moment.
That’s a helpful tool for many blackjack players who have trouble keeping a
running tally of hand totals in their head.
Having taken a look at your current total, the game begins.
Using the four main controls, you’ll simply click on Stand to stay pat, Hit
to take another card, Split when you want to turn a paired holding into two new
hands, or Double when the occasion is ripe for the double down maneuver.
The onscreen action occurs quickly enough on the normal setting, but you can
also speed things up by clicking the “Turbo On” button in the lower left hand
corner of the screen. This little icon shows a flaming card, and as the name
suggest, it turbocharges the game by speeding up the card and chip animations.
Depending on the result of each hand, you’ll be shown a congratulations
graphic to celebrate the win, or a stern announcement signaling that you’ve
lost.
From there, your balance meter will be updated to reflect the total change to
your bankroll from that deal, before all cards used are swept into the “muck”
pile.
At that point, you can click on the “Re Bet” button to post the exact same
wagers as before, or click on “Clear Bets” to remove all chips and begin anew.
You know how the Dragonfish blackjack games look and feel, and the ins and
outs of their interface, so let’s take a look under the hood to examine exact
rules, gameplay conditions, and other crucial factors players need to know.

The rule descriptions shown above may look alike, and in many cases the rules
match up across the menu, but be sure to read each entry carefully. Variables
like the amount of decks in play, the dealer’s mandate to peek for blackjack,
the intricacies of splitting and double down rules, and the betting stakes all
combine to create specific game conditions.
And those exact game conditions in turn create unique house edge rates, which
you can think of as the uphill climb every blackjack player faces when taking on
the casino.
House Edge Rate
The Dragonfish design team created their five pack of blackjack games to fall
neatly within the industry standard for house edge rates.
Remember, the term house edge simply describes your relative odds of winning
or losing for any conceivable casino bet. The baseline for standard blackjack
games is a 0.50 percent house edge, which equates to an expected loss of $0.50
for every $100 wagered over the infinite long run. Other classic casino games
offer much higher house edge rates – roulette is 10 times higher at 5.26 percent
on the American double zero wheel, for example – which is why sharp players
prefer the twenty one tables above all else.
You may prefer the term “expected return,” however, and if that’s the case,
simply subtract any house edge number from 100 to arrive at the corresponding
expected return. For the 0.50 baseline mentioned above, 100 – 0.50 = an expected
return of $95.50. This is the amount players can expect to bring back on $100
wagers over the infinite long run.
The table below contains the house edge and expected return rates for all
five blackjack games found on Dragonfish software:
GAME | HOUSE EDGE | EXPECTED RETURN |
---|---|---|
American Blackjack | 0.48 percent | 99.52 percent |
Classic Blackjack | 0.44 percent | 99.56 percent |
Multihand Blackjack | 0.44 percent | 99.56 percent |
High Limit Blackjack Multihand | 0.64 percent | 99.34 percent |
Jackpot (Crazy) Blackjack | 0.44 percent | 99.56 percent |
As you can see, each of these games falls perfectly in line with the expected
standard of 0.50 percent. In fact, four of the five carry a house edge that
falls a touch lower than that.
And three of the five (Classic, Multihand, and Jackpot Crazy) share the exact
same house edge rate of 0.44 percent. This is the lowest mark – meaning the best
for players – found on Dragonfish’s blackjack menu, so you should try to stick
to these versions if you’re concerned with proper strategy.
Blackjack Variants and Hybrids
Many software designers enjoy tinkering with the old school rules and
gameplay of classic table games. As a result, you’ll find entertaining new takes
on blackjack like Double Exposure, Match Play 21, and the like floating around
the online casino landscape.
The only novel addition to traditional blackjack put forth by Dragonfish is
their Jackpot (Crazy) Blackjack entry. But this isn’t really a new format, as
Jackpot (Crazy) Blackjack is just the base game equipped with three extra side
bets:
- Highest Hand
- Safe Bet
- 777 Jackpot
We’ll briefly run through the rules and payouts for each side bet below to
get you better acquainted.
Highest Hand
This side bet comes into play when you’re playing two or three spots on the
table. When you’re taking advantage of Multihand mode, it’s only natural to
compare the results from your various holdings.
The Highest Hand side bet recognizes this fact, by letting players wager on
the two card “race” between their various hands. You simply place the wager,
click on the hand you think will wind up with the highest two card total, and
sit back to watch the results play out.
One odd scoring rule to remember concerns the aces, which are valued at 11 as
per usual. However, a hand consisting of two aces will be valued at 22 – for the
purpose of this side bet only, not the base game – which is quite a bit better
than the 12 it would be under normal blackjack rules.
Whenever your hands show tied totals, the Highest Hand side bet will be lost
to the house – except in the case of tied blackjacks.
You’ll earn premium payouts for landing blackjack, and basic pays just for
having your chosen hand wind up with the highest two card total.
The following pay table is used to settle Highest Hand side bets:
# PLAYER HANDS | BLACKJACK PAYS | HIGH TOTAL PAYS |
---|---|---|
2 | 2 to 1 | 1 to 1 |
3 | 7 to 2 | 2 to 1 |
The table below shows the house edge rate on Highest Hand side bets:
# PLAYER HANDS | HOUSE EDGE |
---|---|
2 | 1.73 percent |
3 | 2.49 percent |
Safe Bet
The concept behind this side bet is simple enough, as you’re trying to hedge
against landing some of the worst starting hands in blackjack: hard 12s, 13s,
14s, 15s, and 16s.
These hard totals (meaning no ace is present) leave players with little
wriggle room to work with, and in most cases, even following optimal strategy is
likely to produce a loss. Think about it: if you hit a hard 14, you’ll probably
draw a big card and bust. But if you stay on that same total, the dealer is
almost sure to create a better total (unless you get lucky and they bust).
Dragonfish created the Safe Bet as a quick and easy shield to guard against
these subpar starting hands.
If you land a hard 12, 13, 14, 15, or 16 total – one which isn’t paired and
thus can’t be split – with a Safe Bet in play, you’ll earn a 3 to 2 payout on
your money. That’s just like hitting blackjack, and these wins help protect
against the likelihood of losing with such marginal totals.
The best part comes when you do happen to catch a dealer bust, or a perfectly
fitted low card, as you’ll now win the base game money plus the Safe Bet payout.
The house edge offered on Safe Bet side wagers stands at 7.84 percent –
putting it squarely in the “sucker bet” category that smart players know to
avoid at all costs.
777 Jackpot
This side bet is another straightforward affair, allowing players to put up
an extra $1 chip whenever they’re playing two spots on the table.
After that, the goal is to score a hand consisting of exactly three 7s.
Obviously, that requires receiving a 7 7 starting hand, before hitting and
landing that pivotal third 7 for a winner.
When you’re lucky enough to nab any 7 7 7 combination with a 777 Jackpot side
bet in play, the payout will be a whopping $1,500.
But if you can make the stars align and hit 7 7 7 using three of the four 7
spades in the deck, that payout becomes a massive jackpot of $30,000.
Of course, landing those exact combination entails beating astronomical odds.
Hitting any 7 7 7 combination is a 0.000376 probability, while lining up the 7 7
7 in spades is significantly harder at a 0.000003 shot.
Those numbers don’t bode well for this side bet’s house edge, and sure
enough, you’ll be fading an absurd 34.46 percent rate. That’s one of the highest
house edge numbers we’ve ever had the misfortune of seeing – aside from lottery
games and maybe some poorly ran keno offerings – so sufficed to say, steering
clear of this 777 Jackpot side bet should be imperative.
Mobile Compatibility
Dragonfish blackjack software has been outfitted for mobile use, and most –
if not all – of the online casino platforms listed on this page will offer a
mobile app.
These mobile services are available on the iOS, Android, and web/HTML 5
operating systems.
When playing Dragonfish blackjack games on your mobile device, be mindful of
the following gameplay adjustments:
- Multihand mode offers up to
three hands, compared to up to five on normal version - The chip denominations are
scaled back to $1, $5, $25, and $100, with the $500 chip removed - All standard mobile games
set table stakes between $1 and $300 per hand - High Limit mobile games set
table stakes between $5 and $2,000 per hand - High Limit mobile games
return the $500 chip - All mobile blackjack games
are set on Turbo high speed dealing mode by default (use the Settings menu to
toggle back to Non Turbo mode) - All mobile blackjack games
alert players when they attempt to hit on a hard total of 17, 18, 19, or 20, as
a way of preventing misclicks when using smaller buttons - No side bets are supported
within any mobile blackjack game
Conclusion
Overall, we found the Dragonfish blackjack software to be an admirable
effort; one befitting the company’s longstanding association with 888 Holdings.
Although the game selection is limited at just five titles, we expect the menu
to grow as Dragonfish continues to develop its new Casino Flex platform.
As it stands today, however, those five games are perfectly suited for
traditionalists who prefer their virtual blackjack to fall in line with land
based rules and game play. And if you’re interested in mixing things up from
time to time, Dragonfish blackjack software has you covered with the Jackpot
(Crazy) Blackjack concept.
