There are twenty cards in a shoe blackjack deck.
The dealer deals five cards face down to each player and then sets the remaining fourteen cards face up in the middle of the table.
The player with the Lowest hand (counting ace as one) at the end of the first round of betting (before any split or double bets are made) loses the hand and is out of the game.
If two or more players have the same low hand at the end of the first round of betting, then a tie is determined by counting up card values. The player with the highest card value ( Ace through Two) wins that hand and continues playing.
In case of a tie, both players get one more card, and if that still does not produce a winner, then each player drAWS one more card.
The player with the highest hand at the end of the second round of betting (after any split or double bets are made) wins that hand and continues playing.
In case of a tie, both players get one more card, and if that still does not produce a winner, then each player drAWS one more card.
The player with the highest hand at the end of all four rounds (after any split or double bets are made) wins that hand and continues playing.
