7.0 Shuffle and Cut of Cards

7.1 Immediately prior to the commencement of play and, where Dealing Style A as described in rule 8 is followed, after each shoe of cards is completed, the dealer shall, unless pre-shuffled cards are introduced and accepted as such, shuffle the cards so that they are randomly mixed. Where Dealing Style B is followed, rule 11 shall apply upon the completion of a shoe of cards.

7.2 Where it is proposed in any game that pre-shuffled decks of cards be introduced, any of the players:

(a) may, on request, visually inspect the decks of pre-shuffled cards, or any of them, prior to their use; and

(b) may require that any deck(s) of cards issued as pre-shuffled be inspected and mixed in accordance with rule 6, shuffled by the dealer, and cut in accordance with this rule.

7.3 After the cards have been shuffled, they shall be cut. The dealer shall offer the stack of cards, with the backs facing away from him/her, to the players to be cut. The dealer shall begin with the player seated in the lowest number position at the table and, working clockwise around the table, shall offer the stack to each seated player until a player accepts the cut. If no seated player accepts the cut, a casino supervisor shall cut the cards.

7.4 The cards shall be cut by the person designated in rule 7.3 placing the cutting card in the stack at least one deck in from either end. The dealer shall remove all of the cards in front of the cutting card to the back of the stack and then insert the cutting card at least twenty cards in from the back of the stack.

7.5 The stack of cards shall then be inserted in the dealing shoe for commencement of play, following which the dealer shall:

(a) remove the first card from the shoe face up;

(b) draw, face down, additional cards equal in number to the face value of the first card drawn; and

(c) place the first and additional cards drawn in the discard container.

7.6 For the purposes of rule 7.5, a ten, jack, queen, and king shall have a face value of ten and an ace a face value of one.

7.7 The casino manager or shift manager may, after any round of play, direct that the cards in play at the table shall be replaced. If he/she does so, except where pre-shuffled cards are introduced and accepted as such, the new cards shall be checked, shuffled and cut in accordance with rule 6 and this rule.
