All cards from 2 to 9 are counted at face value and an Ace is counted as 1. Picture cards (King, Queen & Jack) and tens have a value of 0 or any combinations totalling 10 will likewise be regarded as 0. To ascertain correct total point count, the examples given below shall be the basis for counting.
The number of cards used for playing ranges from 1 up to 8 decks of which the choice is at the absolute discretion of the House. Both the Player and Banker can only draw a maximum of 3 cards each.
The game begins with you, betting on either Player or Banker using House chips only. The betting limits are displayed at the gaming table.
