Exposed Hole Card

"Double exposure" was introduced by Bob Stupaks Vegas World Casino in Las Vegas and can still be found in varying forms today.

Double exposure is another blackjack variation where the rules are the same as blackjack except that both dealer cards are exposed in the initial round of dealing.

To compensate for this, there are some restrictive rule variations, the four most common of which are:

• After the dealer’s hole card has been dealt face up no soft doubling is allowed.
• The dealer wins on all ties, except on a natural blackjack
• Blackjack pays only even money
• Player may split once only.

These are not fixed rules and may vary from casino to casino to include the following:

• Tied blackjacks are either a push or go to the player
• A Blackjack consisting of the Ace of Spades pays double, as does arriving at 21 with a 6,7 and 8 all of the same suit.
• Straight Blackjacks pay only even money.
• Player may double on any first two cards or not
• Player may or may not double after a split
• Player may split more than once
