Lightning Blackjack, from the studio's published rules
Lightning Blackjack is an Evolution live dealer variant in which multiplier cards change how some winning hands are paid. On 13 November 2026 we cite the studio's name for the game, not its figures, because we have not yet saved the rules with a version and date. Read the payout line and RTP wording on the studio's page before you rely on either.
What the multipliers change
The idea is simple: some hands can pay more than the usual rate. Whether anything offsets that, such as a changed base payout or a limit on the multiplier, is set out elsewhere in the rules.
We do not state which, because we have not confirmed it. Compare with the usual rate on 3:2 or 6:5 payouts.

Reading the RTP with care
An RTP is a long-run average under stated conditions. It does not describe one session. See RTP in blackjack and house edge.
Where the studio gives an RTP, the house edge is 100% minus that figure. For example, 99.00% would mean an edge of 1.00%, or £1.00 expected loss per £100 staked. The 99.00% is a figure for the sum, not a published value.
Availability and context
Whether a given operator offers this table is a snapshot of its lobby on a named day. We have not published that snapshot yet. See the live blackjack tables hub.
Studio background is on the Evolution page; a comparable rule-change variant is Free Bet Blackjack. Gambling carries risk; set a limit before you start.
Quick answers
- What do the multipliers do?
They change what some winning hands pay, under conditions set out in the studio's rules. We have not yet recorded those conditions with a version and date.
- Does the standard blackjack payout still apply?
Check the payout line in the rules panel. A multiplier game can change the base payout as well as add the multiplier, and only the rules page shows how.
- Is the published RTP the whole picture?
The figure assumes particular conditions of play. Read the studio's wording and its date before you rely on it.
- Do you recommend this table?
No. This page describes the rule change and how to read it, not a choice of table.
