210 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE No. 7

12.2 If a player’s point total exceeds twenty-one, that hand shall lose and the dealer shall immediately collect all wagers on that box, and collect the cards and place them in the discard rack.

12.3 Except as provided in rule 12.4, additional cards shall be drawn to the dealer’s hand until a hard total or soft total of seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty or twenty-one has been reached, at which point no additional cards shall be drawn.

12.4 No additional cards shall be drawn to a dealer’s hand, regardless of the point total, if decisions have been made on all players’ hands and the additional cards would have no effect on the outcome of the round of play.

13.0 Wagering on Boxes

13.1 The casino operator may permit up to three players to wager on any one box at a blackjack table.

13.2 The casino operator may direct that the total of all players’ wagers on any one box shall not exceed the table maximum, or that the total of the wagers of any particular player(s) on any one box shall not exceed the permitted maximum. Where the casino operator issues such a direction, a sign stating the box maximum and/or player maximum, as the case may be, shall be displayed at the gaming table.

13.3 Whenever more than one player wagers on a box:

(a) the player seated at the playing area shall have the exclusive right to make the decisions with regard to the cards dealt to the box;

(b) the seated player shall place his/her wager in that portion of the box closest to the dealer’s side of the table and the other players shall place their wagers immediately behind and in a straight line with the wager of the seated player;

(c) if the seated player decides to double down, as provided in rule 10.1, the other players may also elect to double down in accordance with part 10, but shall not be required to do so. In any event, only one additional card shall be dealt to the hand on which the election to double down was made;

(d) if the seated player elects to split pairs, each of the other players with a wager on the hand may either make an additional wager as provided in part 11 to cover both of the pairs resulting from the split, or designate the split pair to which he/she wishes his/her original wager to apply before any further cards are dealt.

As the Gazette has been published for more than 185 years, copyright status depends on the publication date of each issue:

1840–1925 (Public Domain): Issues of the New Zealand Gazette and Provincial Gazettes from this period are in the public domain, as the term of Crown copyright (100 years) has expired. Mechanical reproductions (e.g., scanned PDFs) of these public domain documents do not attract new copyright.
1926–1999 (Crown Copyright): Issues from this period remain subject to Crown copyright. Usage of these issues in this project is "Fair Dealing" for research purposes and consistent with the spirit of the open-access principles championed by NZGOAL, ie, "The default licensing position under ...
