Went to an Indian Casino in Tucson AZ.
Got a written copy of their rules. One rule is: “When a Player exceeds a total of 21, the hand loses automatically unless that Player has doubled down, split his hand or takes insurance and the Dealer is showing an Ace or ten value card. In that case, the Player’s money will be left on the table until the Dealer exposes her hand. If the Dealer’s hand results in a Blackjack the Player’s original money will be lost, but all splits and double downs will be pushed back.”
It seems to me if the Dealer shows an Ace or ten card, they ask for insurance bets and then if they have a blackjack they turn it over right at that time. So what is this rule all about? When it is actually used and how does it help the player?
