A playing card found turned face upward in the dealing shoe must be burned.
If no cards are dealt to a betting space containing a wager, the betting space is inactive for the round. If only one card is dealt to a betting space, at the player’s option, the dealer shall deal the second card to the player after all other players have received a second card. Otherwise, the betting space is inactive and the card must be burned.
If the dealer deals cards to an inactive betting space and the dealer has continued dealing cards to active betting spaces, the dealer shall burn the cards dealt to the inactive betting space.
If the dealer misses dealing the dealer’s first or second card, the dealer shall continue dealing the first two cards to each player, and deal the proper number of cards to the dealer.
If the dealer does not ask the player to place an insurance wager and the hand is played, the hand is valid.
If the dealer drops a card off of the table, the card must be burned.
If the dealer draws a card from the dealer’s shoe in error, and the card is exposed or unexposed, the card must be dealt to the player or the dealer as though it were the next card dealt from the dealing shoe. Any player refusing to accept the card may not have additional cards.
If the dealer has a count of at least 17 and draws a card, the card must be burned.
If the dealer permits a player to wager an amount over $25 the dealer shall return the improper portion of the wager. However, if a dealer permits a player to wager $.50, and is dealt a card, the dealer will return the wager and burn the card (s).
After a round of play, if the dealer or player suspects that the dealer miscounted the dealer’s or player’s hand, the manager shall play back the cards for the round of play to resolve the question or dispute. However, the manager may not back up the cards more than 1 round.
If the dealer exposes both cards of the dealer’s hand, the dealer shall immediately turn one of the two cards face down, and continue to play that round.
