The non-smoking areas are segregated at one-third of slot machine locations.

As a player's point total is announced, he/she may elect to discontinue play of his/her hand for that round and surrender only one-half of his/her wager. If the first card dealt to the dealer is an Ace, King Queen, Jack, or 10, the dealer will place the wager of the player wishing to surrender on top of the player's cards. If, however, the dealer's hold card is revealed resulting in a dealer blackjack, the entire player's wager will be collected by the dealer. Should the dealer's hand not reveal a blackjack, then one-half of the player's wager will be returned to the player. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ THE CLARIDGE OFFER THREE TIMES THE ACTION WITH MULTIPLE ACTION BLACKJACK Atlantic City, NJ --- The Claridge offers three times the action for your money with Multiple Action Blackjack.
