Drawing Rules
Last Updated: 2024-07-15
After the first round, the dealer may or may not draw additional cards depending on the current point totals.
Rules for the Player’s side:
• Player total after two cards: 0/1/2/3/4/5 → Player is drawn another card
• Player total after two cards: 6/7 → no additional card is drawn for the Player, the player ”stands”.
• Player total after two cards: 8/9 → Both the Player and the Banker will stand and this hand is over. This is known as a “natural.”
Rules for the Banker’s side:
If the Player stands with a 6 or a 7, the banker will react based on his own first two cards (0-5 draws a third card and 6-7 stands).
If the Player drew a third card, the Banker acts according to the following rules:
• Banker total after two cards: 0/1/2 → Always draws a card
• Banker total after two cards: 3 → Draws a card if the Player’s third card is not an 8
• Banker total after two cards: 4 → Draws a card if the Player’s third is 2/3/4/5/6 or 7
• Banker total after two cards: 5 → Draws a card if the Player’s third card is 4/5/6/7
• Banker total after two cards: 6 → Draws a card if the Player’s third card is 6/7
• Banker total after two cards: 7 → Banker stands
