Every table is designed to suit different types of players – from beginners to VIPs
The most authentic blackjack experience, with dealers fluent in both Malay and English. Standard rules, easy for beginners to follow.
An exclusive table for seasoned players. Only 7 seats per table, a premium casino atmosphere, and more personalised interaction with the dealer.
A faster variant where players who decide earlier receive their cards first. Great for those who prefer a quicker pace.
An unlimited-seat table where hundreds of players can join the same game simultaneously. Perfect when all other tables are full.
Get familiar with these rules before you take your seat
Get a hand total closer to 21 than the dealer without going over 21 (bust). A natural blackjack (Ace + any 10-value card) pays 3:2.
Number cards = face value; J, Q, K = 10; Ace = 1 or 11 (whichever works in your favour).
Request an additional card from the dealer. Use this when your hand total is low and you need a higher value.
Stop taking cards and let the dealer complete the hand. Typically done when your total is 17 or above.
Double your original bet and receive exactly one more card. Your best move when your hand totals 9, 10, or 11.
When your first two cards are a matching pair, you can split them into two separate hands, each with an equal bet.
A side bet available when the dealer's first card is an Ace. You may wager half your original bet to protect yourself against a dealer blackjack.

* This chart is based on standard blackjack strategy for a 6–8 deck shoe. Actual results depend on the table variation you choose at CEO99.
New players often make the mistake of standing on 16 when the dealer shows a 7 or higher. Statistically, hitting is the better play even with the risk of busting — because the dealer is likely holding a 17 or higher under their face-down card.

Among all the casino games available at CEO99, blackjack stands out as uniquely compelling. Unlike slots, which rely entirely on RNG, or baccarat, where you simply pick Banker or Player, blackjack gives you genuine control over the outcome. With every hand dealt, you can choose to Hit, Stand, Double Down, or Split — and each decision directly affects your odds of winning.
This is what makes blackjack at CEO99 so popular among Malaysian players who prefer games that reward skill. With the right strategy, blackjack RTP can reach 99.5% — meaning the house edge is just 0.5%. That's significantly better than slots, which typically carry a house edge of between 3% and 8%.
In recent years, Malaysian players' interest in blackjack has grown significantly — and CEO99 has seen a 40% increase in blackjack players compared to the previous year. There are several reasons behind this trend.
For one, more and more Malaysian players are learning basic blackjack strategy through online communities and tutorial videos. Once you discover that there's a strategy chart you can follow to maximise your winning odds, blackjack suddenly stops being intimidating – and becomes a game you actually want to master.
Beyond that, the live casino experience at CEO99 has raised the bar for online blackjack entertainment. With HD streaming, professional and friendly dealers, and a responsive interface on smartphones, playing blackjack at CEO99 now feels closer to a real casino than the robotic experience of RNG blackjack.
One of the most common mistakes new blackjack players at CEO99 make is having no clear bankroll management plan. They arrive with RM200 and immediately sit at a VIP table with a RM200-per-hand minimum – meaning one unlucky hand wipes out their entire bankroll.
CEO99 recommends having enough bankroll to cover at least 20 hands. If you have RM200, choose a table with a RM10 minimum bet per hand. This gives you room to recover from a losing streak — because in blackjack, even with the best strategy, there will be times when luck simply isn't on your side.
CEO99 also encourages all members to set a daily loss limit before playing. Decide how much you're comfortable losing in a session, and stop once that limit is reached. This discipline is key to enjoying blackjack as long-term entertainment without putting a strain on your personal finances.
CEO99 offers two types of blackjack — live blackjack (with a real dealer) and RNG blackjack (computer-based). For new players still learning strategy, RNG blackjack is a great option as you can play at your own pace without any time pressure. Once you're more confident, however, live blackjack at CEO99 offers a far more authentic and satisfying experience — with the social interaction between dealer and players that no computer version can replicate.
Every blackjack session at CEO99 takes place in a secure environment protected by 256-bit SSL encryption. Your game data and financial transactions are always kept safe. Read Privacy Policy us.
CEO99 is committed to responsible gambling. Set your daily limits and never bet more than you can afford to lose. Learn more at Responsible Gaming.
