Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 14, July 15, 2024
(a) A card
				found turned face upwards in the shoe shall not be used in the game and shall
				be placed in the discard rack or in a segregated area of the double
				shoe.
(b) A card drawn in error
				without its face being exposed shall be used as though it were the next card
				from the shoe.
(c) After the
				initial two cards have been dealt to each player and a card is drawn in error
				and exposed to the players, such card shall be dealt to the players or dealer
				as though it were the next card from the shoe. Any player refusing to accept
				such card shall not have any additional cards dealt to him or her during such
				round. If the card is refused by the players and the dealer cannot use the
				card, the card shall be burned.
(d)
				If the dealer has seventeen and accidentally draws a card for himself or
				herself, such card shall be burned.
(e) If the dealer misses dealing his or her
				first or second card to himself or herself, the dealer shall continue dealing
				the first two cards to each player, and then deal the appropriate number of
				cards to himself or herself.
(f) If
				there are insufficient cards remaining in the shoe to complete a round of play,
				all of the cards in the discard rack or in a segregated area of the double shoe
				shall be shuffled and cut according to the procedures outlined in
				13:69F-2.5, the first card shall
				be drawn face downwards and burned, and the dealer shall complete the round of
				play. If the cards are being dealt by hand and there are insufficient cards
				remaining in the deck(s) in use to complete a round of play, all the discarded
				cards from the deck(s) in use shall be shuffled by hand and cut according to
				the procedures outlined in
				13:69F-2.5, the first card shall
				be drawn face downwards and burned, and the dealer shall complete the round of
				play. All cards shall then be reshuffled for the next round of play in the
				automated cards shuffling device.
(g) If no cards are dealt to the player's
				hand, the hand is dead and the player shall be included in the next deal. If
				only one card is dealt to the player's hand, at the player's option, the dealer
				shall deal the second card to the player after all other players have received
				a second card.
(h) Any round of
				play drawn from the inappropriate side of a double shoe shall be treated as if
				it were drawn from the appropriate side of the shoe and concluded.
(i) If after receiving the first two cards
				and the dealer fails to deal an additional card(s) to a player who has
				requested such a card, then, at the player's option, the dealer shall either
				deal the additional card(s) after all other players have received their
				additional cards but prior to the dealer revealing his or her hole card, or
				call the player's hand dead and return the player's original wager.
(j) If the dealer inserts his or her hole
				card into a card reader device when the value of his or her first card is not
				an ace, king, queen, jack, or 10, the dealer, after notification to a casino
				supervisor, shall:
1. If the particular card
				reader device in use provides any player with the opportunity to determine the
				value of the hole card, call all hands dead, collect the cards and return each
				player's wager; or
2. If the
				particular card reader device in use does not provide any player with the
				opportunity to determine the value of the hole card, continue play.
