What is Bet Behind?
A live blackjack option that lets you bet on the hand of a seated player when seats are full.
Bet Behind is a live blackjack feature that lets you join a busy table without your own seat. You place a wager that rides on the hand of one of the seated players, and you win or lose based on how their hand finishes.
It is handy at popular tables where every seat is taken, since it means you do not have to wait in a queue to get involved. The trade off is that you have no control: the seated player makes all the decisions about hitting, standing and splitting, and you simply share their outcome.
Some versions let you keep betting behind a player who is doing well. Our live casino guide covers how these tables work. 18+.
