Intertops, Juicy Stakes running blackjack games in January

(PRESS RELEASE) -- Hitting 21 in blackjack always feels good and this month Intertops Poker and Juicy Stakes, the two leading poker rooms on the Revolution Poker Network, are making it even sweeter.

In addition to Texas Hold'em and Omaha, both poker rooms also offer a few casino games including several blackjack variants. Until Jan. 14, blackjack players will earn points for hitting 21 and the 30 players with the most points will split $1,500 in prize money.

A Natural Blackjack (Ace with 10, Jack, Queen or King of any suit) earns one point per dollar bet. All Hearts, Diamonds or Clubs win 5 points and all Spades are worth 20 points per dollar. A Big Suite 21 (Ace, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 in any order) wins 500 points for every dollar bet.

Players can choose from four games: blackjack, Face Up 21, Double Draw and Perfect Pair. (Games in Intertops' main casino are excluded.)

Juicy Stakes and Intertops Poker attract players at all skill levels, from all over the world. They've also gained a reputation for sending online satellite tournament champions to exciting live poker tournament events. Last fall, online winners went to the Caribbean and the winner of upcoming tournaments will win their way to the CAPT Seefeld Main Event in Austria next month.
