Blackjack Kansas City
What follows is an updated report on blackjack at the existing four Kansas City casinos, including the new Hollywood casino. Blackjack is often referred to as 21, and to many Kansas City table game players, it is the best-loved game of all. Blackjack has been played around the globe for centuries. The object is simple. Your hand must be closer to 21 than the dealer’s, without busting, or going over 21. Black Jack was founded in 1857, and named after nearby Black Jack Creek. The creek was named for the Blackjack Oak trees along its course. 4 A post office was established at Black Jack in 1858, and remained in operation until 1895. In Blackjack shoe games the dealer usually deals to a cut card. In single-deck games, the dealer often deals a fixed number of rounds depending on the number of players. In all cases, the deeper the penetration the better for the card counter as more information is known and a better range of counts is available. Blackjack in Kansas City on YP.com.

High Card Flush
High card Flush is the only non-blackjack table game to come along that is non-poker based. It is suits-based and requires no knowledge of poker to play.
- Flush: Compare your Flush to the paytable for great odds.*
- Straight Flush: Win big with a Straight Flush. The larger the Straight Flush, the more you win!*
- Ante: Win when your Flush is higher than the Dealer, or if the Dealer doesn’t qualify.
- Raise: Make up to 3X your Ante wager, depending upon your Flush. The better your hand, the more you can wager! (Dealer must qualify to win).
*The Flush and Straight Flush wagers are independent of the outcome of the Ante and Raise.
Blackjack
The classic game in which the player tries to draw to 21, or closer to 21, than the dealer without going over (busting). Each player starts with two cards face up, then is allowed to hit (take another card) or stay (play that hand). The dealer starts with two cards as well, but one is face up and the other face down. Face cards (jack, queen, king) are worth 10, and aces are worth 1 or 11 (player choice). Receiving an ace and a 10 on your first two cards is the lucrative hand known as “blackjack.” Additional bets like “splitting” and “doubling down” are also available on certain hands.
Craps
Possibly the most exciting game on the floor, Craps often draws the biggest crowds. The game appears complicated to the newcomer, but the premise is actually quite simple. Players wage money on the outcome of one roll, or a series of rolls, of two dice by the “shooter.” The game is played in rounds, and the first roll of each new round is called the “come-out roll.” An array of player bets is available both for the come-out roll, as well as each additional roll, with payouts dependent on the likelihood of each outcome.
Roulette
Perhaps the simplest table game of all. In Roulette, a croupier spins the wheel in one direction then places and spins a ball in the opposite direction. After a number of revolutions, the ball eventually falls into one of 38 slots. If the ball lands in a number or color where you placed a bet prior to the spin, you win.
21+3
21+ 3 is a fun, exciting variation of the standard casino game of blackjack. After making a wager on the blackjack hand, you may make a side wager that is based on a 3 card poker hand.
The side wager is a bet that your original two cards combined with the dealer’s up card will combine for a winning poker hand. If the three cards combine to make a flush, straight, three of a kind, or a straight flush you win. All winning side wagers are paid 9 to 1.
The game is dealt like a regular blackjack game with 2 cards to each player and one card up and one card down to the dealer. At this point the dealer will take all losing 3 card wagers and pay all winning wagers 9 to 1. After all 3 card wagers are settled, the hand continues with standard blackjack procedures.
Double Deck blackjack
The object of the game is to have the total point value of the cards dealt to the player exceed the total of the dealer’s hand without going over 21. When the player draws cards totaling more than 21, the hand “breaks” and automatically loses.
There is no mid-shoe entry allowed in double deck blackjack. In other words, you must begin play with the first hand after the shuffle. If you choose to sit out a hand, you must wait until the next shuffle to re-enter the game.
Craps free Craps
Craps Free Craps is a fun and exciting variation on the casino game of Craps. Craps Free Craps offers several wagers not available on a standard Craps game.
In the game of Craps 2, 3, and 12 on the come out roll are losing rolls for a pass line bet. Likewise, a come out roll of 11 is a winner on the pass line. In Craps Free Craps these rolls become the “point” and pass line betwins when the number is rolled again before a 7.
Blackjack Kansas City
Texas Hold'em

- The earlier you bet, the more you can bet.
- You don’t have to fold until you see all the community cards.
- The Trips bonus pays odds if your final five-card hand is a three-of-a-kind or better.
Omaha high-low
A maximum of ten players are allowed per table.
In High-Low Split Eight or Better poker, the player with the highest ranking five-card Poker hand and the player with the lowest ranking five-card Poker hand, will divide the pot equally.
Pai Gow
Pai-Gow Poker Fortune Bonus is identical to the authorized game of Pai Gow Poker with the exception of the optional Fortune “Bonus Wager.” The object of the game is for the player, using all seven cards dealt, to create a qualifying five card poker hand of a Straight or better.
Three card poker

Easy to learn and fun to play, Three-Card Poker has gained enormous popularity in casinos. The game actually consists of two games: Ante-and-Play (in which you play the dealer to see who has the highest hand) and PairPlus (in which you simply wager on whether or not you'll be dealt a pair or better).
Seven Card Stud
Stud is characterized by players having one or more face up, individual cards. Seven card Stud is the most popular form, and the only type discussed in these rules. Seven card Stud is played high, low, and high-low split. To avoidrunning out of cards on a deal, all seven card Stud games normally will be restricted to a maximum of eight players.
Mississippi Stud
