Rules of Blackjack
As far as the rules are concern they are not fixed,
they vary from casino to casino and area to area. For
example, a casino in downtown Vegas may have different
rules than one of the Vegas Strip casinos which may have
different rules from a casino up in Reno or Tahoe. As in
same manner rules in a casino in Freeport Bahamas may
differ from those in Atlantic City. So it is very
important to know and learn the rules of a particular area
and the casino before you set to play the game.
To set a blackjack table all you need is one dealer and
one to seven players. The first seat on the dealer's left
is referred to as First Base, the first seat on the
dealer's right is referred to as Third Base. A printed
betting square is felt on the table in front of each
players seat. The chip tray is placed immediately in front
of the dealer. On the dealer's left is the deck or shoe
and beside that should be the minimum bet sign, which you
ought to read before sitting down to play.
On the dealer's immediate right is the money drop slot
where all currency and tips (chips) are deposited. Next to
the drop slot is the discard tray. Play begins after the
following ritual is completed: the dealer shuffles the
cards, the deck is "cut" by a player using the marker
card, and the dealer "burns" a card. Before any cards are
dealt, the players may make a wager by placing the desired
chips (value and number) into the betting box.
For various reasons the player may occasionally sit out a
hand or two, no problem for that. Even it is a good
strategy to sit out for few deals when dealer become lucky
and every one is loosing badly. It may so happen that you
can ask to leave the table until you are prepare to play
again if you are sitting ideal for quite a few hands and
good number of people are waiting to play at your table.
