Blackjack Weekend Races
Weekend Race events at Paddy Power Casino give online blackjack players the chance to win an extra £1,000 by playing their favourite game on selected weekends. The Weekend Race events aren’t exclusive to blackjack players (roulette players can take part too) so those of you who would get a thrill out of beating your fellow players as well as the dealer himself might want to take a closer look at these opportunities.
Each Weekend Race is essentially a wagering competition, and you need to opt in via the Paddy Power Casino website and then wager £2,500 or more to take part. That might sound like a lot of cash to put down, but it’s important to remember that this is a wagering total and not a demand that you lose money! You should also bear in mind the fact that you have from 00:00 on a Friday until 23:59 on the following Sunday to wager as much as you can, so you have three whole days to work with.
When you look at the event in these terms, entering a Weekend Race needn’t be daunting. If you play blackjack for £5 a hand and you play 300 hands a day, your wagering total would come to £4,500, which would not only get you into the race, but it might also give you a shot at winning. Wager even more and your chances of winning would obviously be higher.
Winning the Weekend Race prize of £1,000 requires you to wager more on blackjack and/or roulette than anyone else, so obviously nobody knows what amount of online casino wagering will be necessary to win outright. This being the case, our suggestion is to enjoy taking part in each Weekend Race for its own sake, focus on playing good blackjack and view any prize that you win at the end of the race as icing on the cake.
Even if you don’t win the Weekend Race prize, playing so much blackjack for three days will undoubtedly teach you a thing or two, even if you happen to be a seasoned player. Because blackjack is a game that involves skill as well as luck, it can be said that the more you play the better you are likely to get (as long as you pay attention and learn from any mistakes that you make) so participating in Weekend Race events could actually help you to become a more profitable player all round!
