(a) After the first two cards are dealt to a player and the player's point total is announced, the player may elect to discontinue play on his or her hand for that round by surrendering one-half of his or her wager. All decisions to surrender shall be made prior to such player indicating as to whether he or she wishes to double down, split pairs, stand or draw as provided in this subchapter.
1. If the first card dealt to the dealer was
a two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine, the dealer shall
immediately collect one-half of the wager and return one-half to the
player.
2. If the first card dealt
to the dealer was an ace, king, queen, or jack, the dealer shall place the
player's wager on top of the player's cards. When the dealer's second card is
revealed, the hand shall be settled by immediately collecting the entire wager
if the dealer has blackjack, or by collecting one-half of the wager and
returning one-half of the wager to the player if the dealer does not have
blackjack.
(b) If the player has made an insurance wager and then elects to surrender, each wager shall be settled separately and one wager shall have no bearing on the other.
