/multiblackjack
Multi-seat blackjack table - up to 7 players sharing one dealer. Each player plays their own hand independently against the same dealer.
Description
The host opens a lobby with their bet. Up to 7 total players can join (each picks their own bet). When the table starts, every player is dealt their own hand. Players take turns hitting/standing/doubling/splitting against a single shared dealer.
Each player wins or loses their own bet independently against the dealer - beating other players doesn't matter. Standard blackjack rules apply (3:2 BJ payout, dealer hits soft 17, splits/doubles allowed).
For solo blackjack, see /blackjack.
Required Fields
- bet - Host's bet (each joiner picks their own bet when joining).

Lobby flow
- Host runs the command - host's bet is deducted and the lobby is posted.
- Other players click Join and pick their own bet.
- Lobby has a 5-minute countdown timer.
- Host can Start anytime; otherwise the table deals itself the moment the timer ends, with whoever is seated.
- If the timer ends with nobody at the table, all bets are refunded.
Game flow
- Each player is dealt 2 cards (their hand is theirs alone).
- Dealer shows one face-up + one hole card.
- Players take turns acting on their hand: Hit / Stand / Double / Split.
- After all players finish, the dealer plays out (hits soft 17).
- Each player's hand is settled independently against the dealer's final hand.
Payouts
| Result | Payout |
|---|---|
| Beat the dealer | 1:1 |
| Natural blackjack (and dealer doesn't have one) | 3:2 |
| Push (tie with dealer) | Bet returned |
| Dealer wins | Lose bet |
Splits and doubles use full extra bets and pay 1:1.
Doubling down is blocked if it would take a single hand's stake above the max bet, so a max-bet hand can't be doubled. Play Again always re-stakes your original bet, not a bet that grew from doubling.
Notes
- Cooldown: 5 seconds (host).
- Players: 1–7 (max configurable per game).
- Timer: 5-minute lobby; the table always deals itself when the timer ends.
- Each player can only be in one game at a time - GameManager enforces this for everyone at the table.
- Only one Multiplayer Blackjack per channel at a time. If a table stalls, the channel frees itself automatically and the bets are refunded.
- On error, all bets are refunded automatically.
