Important Terms For The BeginnerSitting down at a blackjack table for your very first time can be very intimidating to say the least. You could be nervous and jittery to begin with then all of a sudden the dealer and players are talking in terms that you just don't have a clue to what they mean. So we will start with important terms deemed necessary to understand as soon as you sit down at the table. Table layout: These are the markings you see on the green felt of the blackjack table. Designated player's area: These are white lined rectangles or circles where each player will place their bets.
Playing rules: Most important playing rules are printed on the table right in front of the dealer. Dealer must draw on 16 and stand on all 17's. Blackjack pays 3 to 2. Sometimes other rules will be listed such as Insurance, Surrender, Double Down, and Split. Shoe: This is the box that holds multiple decks. Most shoes will have four, six, or eight decks pre-shuffled. It is normally placed to the dealer's immediate left. This will speed up the game and multi-decks are used to help neutralize card counting. Automated shuffler: This machine is used to shuffle the cards automatically while the game is on-going with a set of pre-shuffled card-decks in the shoe. This will also speed up the game getting more hands played per hour. These are very sophisticated machines and are also capable of preforming other tasks for the casino. They will help eliminate card clumping and can some can read the cards and keep track of them to help security spot card counters. Betting limits: This is a placard that describes the minimum and maximum wagers that can be made at that table. Most are color coded and interchangeable in order to increase the minimum throughout the day. Denomination of casino chips: White chips value = $1. Red chips value = $5. Green chips value = $25. Black chips value = $100. Chip Rack: The built in box immediately in front of the dealer. These are the casino's chips (bank) and has a very specific placement for each denomination in order for the casino and security to keep track of the game's progress. It is also used to make payouts when the player wins and takes in chips when the player loses. Player chips: These are the players chips that were purchased from the dealer or won by the player and kept in front of the player and close to the arm rest. These chips must not get too close to the betting area unless the player is making a wager or continuing wager as the game is played. Player's hand: These are the two cards dealt to the player. It is important to note these cards are dealt face up and are never to be touched by the player. The dealer will handle all cards. Dealer's hand: The dealer will have one card face up and one card face down immediately placed underneath the dealer's up card. Other Blackjack Glossary/Terms
