15A.7 Once the prize money has been established, the player(s) with winning Madness 21 wagers shall receive the prize money individually. The amount paid is the amount displayed on the electronic jackpot prize display after the player has activated the jackpot prize button.
15A.8 If the dealer and the player(s) both have a blackjack, this constitutes a stand off, however, Madness 21 wagers shall be valid and the player(s) shall be offered the jackpot prize button.
15A.9 When more than one player wagers on a box, the player who controls the box, subject to rule 14, shall have the right to activate the jackpot prize button when the player has a blackjack. If the player declines to activate the jackpot prize button, he or she may nominate another player as long as the nominee has a wager in that box and a valid Madness 21 wager. If all players decline, a casino employee shall activate the jackpot prize button.

“16.3 An exposed card dealt in error to the dealer’s completed hand, or left exposed subsequent to the completion of a reconstruction of a hand, or hands, shall be removed from play and placed face down in the discard rack.”
2.8 Rule 16.5 is hereby deleted and the following substituted:
“16.5 Should any error occur during any round due to the incorrect dealing or placement of a card or cards, every effort shall be made to reconstruct the round in such a way as to cause the sequence of cards dealt to be as it should have been had the error not occurred and, in the event that a reconstruction takes place, the casino operator and the players shall abide by the consequences. Should it not be possible to reconstruct the round the casino operator shall declare either the whole round, or the hand or hands affected by the error, void. Where a hand is voided under this rule the cards dealt to it shall be removed to the discard rack and any wagers on it shall be void and be returned to the player or players concerned. All hands dealt subsequent to any such error shall stand as dealt.”

If such a failure occurs during a round of play, any Madness 21 wager which had won as provided for by these Rules, shall be settled with a $25 payout.”
