(a) A card
				found turned face up in the shoe shall not be used in the game and shall be
				placed in the discard rack. If more than one card is found face up in the shoe
				during the dealing of the cards, the round of play shall be void and the cards
				shall be reshuffled.
(b) If a 10
				card of any suit is found in the shoe, it shall not be used in the game and
				shall be removed from the shoe and destroyed by a floorperson in accordance
				with the casino licensee's internal control procedures. If more than one 10
				card is found in the shoe during the dealing of the cards, the round of play
				shall be void and the cards shall be reshuffled.
(c) A card drawn in error without its face
				being exposed shall be used as though it were the next card from the
				shoe.
(d) If the dealer fails to
				deal the first card to himself or herself before dealing the first two cards to
				each player, the round of play shall be void.
(e) 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 player and the dealer cannot use the card, the card shall be
				burned.
(f) If the dealer has a
				point count of 17 or higher and accidentally draws a card for himself or
				herself, such card shall be burned.
(g) If there are insufficient cards remaining
				in the shoe to complete a round of play, all of the cards in the discard rack
				shall be shuffled and cut according to the procedures in
				13:69F-26.4, the first card shall
				be drawn face down and burned, and the dealer shall complete the round of
				play.
(h) 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.
(i) If after receiving the first two cards,
				the dealer fails to deal an additional card or cards to a player who has
				requested such cards, then, at the player's option, the dealer shall either
				deal the additional cards after all other players have received their
				additional cards but prior to the dealer revealing his or her hole card, or
				shall call the player's hand dead and return the player's original
				wager.
(j) If an automated card
				shuffling device is being used and the device jams, stops shuffling during a
				shuffle, or fails to complete a shuffle cycle, the cards shall be reshuffled in
				accordance with the casino licensee's internal control procedures.
(k) Any automated card shuffling device shall
				be removed from a gaming table before any other method of shuffling may be
				utilized at that table.
(
l
) 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, or jack, 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.
