				  Board-approved table game wagering instruments on the appropriate areas of the
				  table layout. Verbal wagers accompanied by cash may not be accepted.
(b) Only players who are seated at a
				  Criss-Cross Poker table may wager at the game. Once a player has placed a wager
				  and received cards, that player shall remain seated until the completion of the
				  round of play. If a player leaves the table during a round of play, any wagers
				  made by the player may be considered abandoned and may be treated as losing
				  wagers.

				  Ante Down Wagers shall be placed prior to the dealer announcing "no more bets"
				  in accordance with the dealing procedures in §
										674a.8, §
										674a.9 or §
										674a.10 (relating to procedure for
				  dealing the cards from a manual dealing shoe; procedure for dealing the cards
				  from the hand; and procedure for dealing the cards from an automated dealing
				  shoe). Except as provided in §
										674a.11(b), (d) and
