Current through Register Vol. 54, No. 49, December 7, 2024
Section 675a.4 - Procedure for completion of each round of play(a) After all players have placed their wagers, the dealer shall announce "no more bets" and if any player placed an Extra Roll Wager use the electronic device to prevent the placement of additional Extra Roll Wagers. If any Extra Roll Wagers have been made, the dealer shall collect the wagers and place them in the table inventory container.(b) The dealer shall cover and shake the shaker containing the dice at least three times to cause a random mixture of the dice. The dealer shall then simultaneously throw the dice into the throw box. A roll of the dice shall be invalid if any of the dice go off the table or if one die comes to rest on top of the other.(c) In the event any of the dice do not land flat on the table (for example, one edge of the die is resting cocked on a stack of chips), the side directly opposite the side that is resting on the chips or other object shall be considered uppermost or skyward. If more than one side of a die is resting on a stack of chips or other object, the roll shall be void and the dice shall be placed back in the throw cup, shaken and rethrown.(d) When the dice come to rest from a valid throw, the dealer shall call out which die of the highest value occurs the most.(e) After the first roll, the dealer shall announce to the players the matching dice of the highest value. After announcing the winning combination, the dealer shall move all matching dice of the highest value into the corresponding box on the throw box layout. For example, if there were four 5s, three 6s and two 1s and one 4, the dealer shall move the four 5s into the box on the throw layout labeled "Five." To move the dice to the designated area on the throw box layout, the dealer shall leave the dice exposed and may not cover the dice or impede surveillance's ability to view the dice at any time the dice are on the throw box layout.(f) The dealer shall then settle each player's first roll wagers as follows: (1) The dealer shall collect the player's losing Pip Street Wagers and pay out all winning Pip Street Wagers in accordance with § 675a.5(a) (relating to payout odds). For example, if a player placed a Pip Street Wager on the 5 die and the 2 die and the dealer threw four 5s, three 6s and two 1s and one 4, the dealer shall collect the losing Pip Street Wager placed on the 2 die and pay out the winning Pip Street Wager placed on the 5 die.(2) For the Like Kind Wager, if a player: (i) Did not purchase an Extra Roll, the dealer shall collect the player's losing Like Kind Boulevard Wagers and pay out any Like Kind Boulevard Wagers in accordance with § 675a.5(b). For example, if the dealer threw four 5s, three 6s and two 1s and one 4, the dealer shall collect all Like Kind Wagers that were not placed on the four-of-a-kind circle and pay out any winning wagers that were placed on the four-of-a-kind circle.(ii) Also purchased an Extra Roll, the dealer shall pay out any winning Like Kind Boulevard Wagers in accordance with § 675a.5(b) and collect a player's losing Like Kind Boulevard Wagers that have no possibility of winning with an extra roll. For example, if a player wagered on the three-of-a-kind, a four-of-a-kind and a five-of-a-kind and a four-of-a-kind was thrown on the first throw, the dealer shall pay the winning four-of-a-kind, collect the Like Kind Wager placed on the three-of-a-kind and leave the player's wager on the five-of-a-kind on the table layout until it is resolved in accordance with subsection (g).(3) The dealer shall then settle the player's Millionaire Row Wagers by collecting any losing wagers and paying out any winning wagers in accordance with § 675a.5(c). For example, if nine matching dice were thrown on the first throw, the dealer shall collect all Millionaire Row Wagers that were not placed on the nine-of-a-kind and pay out any winning Millionaire Row Wagers that were placed on the nine-of-a-kind circle.(g) If any player purchased an Extra Roll, the dealer shall then collect all dice except those of the highest value that were placed on a designated number on the throw box layout and place them in the shaker. For example, if the dealer threw three 6s, three 4s, two 2s and two 1s in the first throw, the three 6s would be placed on the "Six" in the throw box layout. The dealer would collect the three 4s, two 2s and the two 1s, place them in the shaker, shake and throw the remaining dice in accordance with subsections (b) and (c).(h) When the dice come to rest from a valid throw, the dealer shall call out the number of additional dice that match the highest number of matched dice thrown in the first throw. For example, if after the first throw three 6s were placed on the "Six" in the throw box layout and on the second throw an additional two 6s were thrown, the extra roll would result in a total of a five-of-a-kind. The dealer shall collect any losing Like Kind Boulevard Wager and pay out any winning Like Kind Boulevard Wagers on the Extra Roll in accordance with § 675a.5(d), provided that if a player was paid out on a winning Like Kind Wager after the first roll, the player may not be paid out on the second roll for the same number. For example, if a player placed a winning Like Kind Wager on the four-of-a-kind and if no additional matching dice were thrown on the second roll, the player may not be paid out for the four-of-a-kind for the Extra Roll.
