Kewadin Casinos

My latest copy of CBJN indicates the following rules for all Kewadin casinos: s17, ds, dsa, ls, hide. 6 decks, cut at 1.7. Do I correctly read this hide rule to mean that I will never see the other players' cards when the dealer busts? If so, is there any way this could be playable?

The dealers down card is the only card not seen with this rule. This occurs if all the players bust, surrender, or get blackjack. In other words, the dealer does not flip over his/her down card if they do not have to play their hand out.

... are included in every issue, in the back.

"Hide" translates to what you suspect AND do not expect to se the dealer's down card when he does not have to reveal it - when there are no more bets to resolve.

I did check out the definition, but I still wasn't clear on whether all players' cards were hidden, or just the dealer's down card. I guess I'm still not, as Frenchman gave me a different answer than you did. I can work around just missing an occasional dealer down card, but the other scenario is a killer.

The much better game is to be found at the new Turtle Creek Casino near Traverse City.

First, all of Kewadin's six deck games are dealt face up so you can see all the other players cards.

Second, on pitch games even though they are dealt face down the casino would always want to expose the players cards because if they didn't expose the players hand, players would be tucking busted hands.

at least if the games are S17 or H17.

As I posted originally: s17, ds, dsa, ls, hide. 6 decks, cut at 1.7.

The players' hands must be exposed, so it's just the dealer's down card that doesn't show if not necessary. That shouldn't be common enough to hurt too bad, especially if the tables are relatively full.

Thanks everyone for your help.

Don't worry, not as good as your "Candy Store". Just a whole lot cleaner and of course newer. I hope you wash your hands real good after handling those chips, I sure do!

That post you just made gave TOO much info on a very good thing that you should want to keep off a public forum. I know for a fact they read this site and IF you want to do all you can to keep the game as good as it is, and playable, I suggest you bust your post quickly. No need for that type of info.

I'll keep an eye out for you. :)

He didn't say if it was good or bad.

It doesn't happen enough if there are least two spots being played. I can still win with the hide rule playing just one spot.

'preciate it.
