Section 13:69F-2.13 - More than one player wagering on a box
Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 6, March 18, 2024
(a) Unless otherwise directed by the Division, a casino licensee may permit from one to three people to wager on any one box of the blackjack layout provided that the first person wagering on that box consent to additional players wagering on such box and provided further that the casino licensee adhere to such procedures and limitations imposed by the Division as dictated by the particular circumstances. This option may not be used at any blackjack table which offers the progressive blackjack wager authorized by 13:69F-2.19.
(b) Whenever more than one player wagers on a box, the player who is seated at that box shall have the exclusive right to call the decision with regard to the cards dealt to such box. In the case of no seated player, the person with the highest wager in the box shall have such right.
(c) The player calling the decisions with respect to any box shall place his or her wager in that portion of the box closest to the dealer's side of the table and all other players wagering on such box shall place their wagers immediately behind and in a vertical line with the aforementioned wager.
(d) Whenever more than one player is wagering on a box and the player calling the decisions decides to double down, the other players may also double their wagers but shall not be required to do so. In any event, only one additional card shall be dealt to the hand that is subject to the double down decision.
(e) Whenever more than one player is wagering on a box and the player calling the decisions decides to split pairs, the other players shall either make an additional wager as provided for in 13:69F-2.11 to cover each split pair or designate which of the split pairs they wish their initial wager to apply.
(f) Whenever more than one player is wagering on a box, each player shall have the right to make an insurance bet in accordance with 13:69F-2.9 regardless of whether the other players on that box make such a bet.
(g) The Division and its agents shall have the discretion and authority to limit, control and regulate the implementation of this section as is appropriate under the circumstances which shall include, without limitation, the right to limit the number of tables at which this procedure is permitted, the right to limit the number of boxes at each table on which more than one person can wager, and the right to require the casino licensee to establish the ability of its dealers to implement this section.
