Part 4
Different types of wagers, extra
players and other matters
24 Surrender
(1) If 2 cards have been dealt to each player and the dealer’s
first card is a jack, queen, king or ace, the dealer must offer
each player who has a point count of less than 21 the
opportunity to surrender half the player’s spanish blackjack
wager.
(2) If a player indicates to the dealer that the player wishes to
surrender, the dealer must place a marker button on top of
the player’s wager and not deal any further cards to the
player’s hand.
(3) If the dealer obtains blackjack, the surrender is void and the
player loses the whole wager.
(4) If the dealer does not obtain blackjack, the dealer must
complete the hand and take half the surrendered wager.
25 Insurance wagers
(1) If the first card dealt to the dealer is an ace, the dealer must
call for insurance wagers by calling ‘insurance’.
(2) Each player may make an insurance wager which wins if
the dealer’s second card is a king, queen or jack and loses if
the dealer’s second card is an ace, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9.
(3) Immediately after the second card is dealt to each player
and before any additional cards are dealt to the players, an
insurance wager may be made by placing on the insurance
line an amount not more than half the amount staked on the
player’s spanish blackjack wager.
(4) However, to ensure an even dollar payout if the insurance
wager wins, the insurance wager may be up to 25c more
than half the amount staked on the player’s spanish
blackjack wager.
(5) All winning insurance wagers are paid at odds of 2 to 1.
