Online betting site Bethard has announced that they’ve signed a content deal with Relax Gaming and will begin offering the company’s blackjack title on their casinos as a result.

The agreement will see all of Bethard’s gaming channels offering both blackjack and roulette games from Relax. The company’s brands include Bethard SuomiVegas, SverigeCasino, and SverigeKronan. Relax’s blackjack game is a hot product, having recently been launched and offering up to three hands at once. The game is sharp in its presentation, allowing it to be played on mobile and desktop devices.

Commenting on the agreement Relax’s CEO Patrik Osteraker said, “The Bethard Group has a strong brand in the Scandinavian market and we’re pleased to provide them with our table games content, with the likelihood of further roll-outs down the line. Our table games have been proven to drive incremental revenues for various operators, with players appreciating their realistic gameplay and operators their extremely competitive price.”

Bethard’s Bjornar Heggernes also commented, revealing: “Our players expect the latest and best games on the market so forming this partnership with Relax Gaming will help us offer this. The table games they’ll initially supply us with are top-end in quality, and this allows the player a rich user experience on mobile devices and desktop. “

Find what changed in the game

New blackjack products often change a particular part of the familiar game: an extra wager, a different decision, more hands or a new interface. The announcement is useful for identifying that change. It is not a substitute for a complete rules sheet, nor proof that a named product remains available.

Main game
Identify the basic format and who or what the player faces.
Extra feature
Separate optional bets and paid choices from the ordinary wager.
Missing detail
Do not infer an unreported payout, rule or current availability.
Does a new feature automatically make the main game better value?

No. A feature describes a change, not its mathematical value. Start with the full rules and any separate wager or fee; the linked rules and odds guides explain what to compare.
