Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 18, September 16, 2024

(a) If a casino licensee chooses to have the cards dealt from a manual dealing shoe, the dealing shoe shall meet the requirements of 13:69E-1.19. Once the procedures required by 13:69F-33.4 have been completed, the stacked deck of cards shall be placed in the dealing shoe either by the dealer or by the automatic card shuffling device.

(b) The dealer shall announce "No more bets" prior to dealing any cards.

(c) Each card shall be removed from the dealing shoe with the hand of the dealer that is the closest to the dealing shoe and placed on the appropriate area of the layout with the opposite hand.

(d) In the first round of play, the dealer shall place a button in front of the dealer's position indicating that the dealing shall commence with the player farthest to his or her left and continue around the table in a clockwise manner. For each ensuing round of play, the button shall rotate clockwise to the next player or, if the button has rotated to the player farthest to the dealer's right, the dealer. Dealing shall commence with the player or dealer, as applicable, positioned immediately after the button in clockwise rotation.

(e) The dealer shall burn the top card of the deck and shall then deal the cards as follows:

1. One card face down to each player and the dealer;

2. A second card face down to each player and the dealer; and

3. A third card face up to each player and the dealer.

(f) After all cards have been dealt to each player and the dealer as provided in (e) above and 13:69F-33.10, the dealer shall remove the stub from the manual dealing shoe and place the stub face down in the discard rack without exposing the cards.

(g) The dealer shall be required to count the cards in the deck at least once every five rounds of play in order to determine that the correct number of cards is still in the deck.
