Placing Wagers

Before the dealer deals you in, you must place a wager in the circle on the table. If you have not, then you are dealt out of the hand.
Cell Phones
-
You cannot play blackjack while speaking on a cell phone in most casinos in Las Vegas. This ensures that no one is cheating.
Dealer Hit
-
A dealer must hit on less then a "soft 17." This means that if the dealer's card total is 17, but is made up of cards that don't include an ace, then he must draw another card. This increases the dealer's chances of busting.
