Double down

(1) Except for blackjack or a point count of twenty-one in two cards, a player may elect to double down, i.e. make an additional wager equal to the amount of his original wager, whenever the first two cards dealt to him total 9, 10 or 11 or the first two cards of any split pair total 9, 10 or 11 on the condition that one and only one additional card shall be dealt to the hand on which he has elected to double down. In such circumstances, the one additional card shall be dealt face upwards and placed sideways on the layout. (2) Where a dealer obtains blackjack after a player double down, the dealer shall only collect the amount of the original wager of such player and shall not collect the additional amount wagered in doubling down. 92 Gaming Control
