Blackjack switch

Blackjack Switch is a variant of blackjack in which a player is dealt two hands and is allowed to swap the top two cards between hands. For example, if the player is dealt 10-5 and 6-10, then the player can swap the top two cards of each hand to make hands of 10-10 and 6-5. Natural blackjacks are paid 1:1 instead of the standard 3:2, and a dealer 22 is a push.
