Shuffle Master machine using 6 decks of cards A Blackjack table has 7 to 9
betting areas. Each player is given two cards face up while the Dealer
receives an up card and a hole card (face down).

To win, the player must achieve a higher point total than that of the Dealer’s
hand, without exceeding 21. Should the player’s hand exceed a point total of
21, the player loses.

‘hard 17’s. The player can draw as many cards as they wish, as long as their
total does not exceed 21. Should the Dealer exceed 21 (bust), every active
hand remaining is paid. All winning bets are paid at 1 to 1 odds except for a
