Here at the Grand Sierra Resort, we are happy to offer a wide assortment of single deck, double deck, and shoe blackjack games 24 hours a day. And for those of you that want a little more bang for your buck, we also offer six different side wagers (including progressive wagers) that are sure to add to your Grand experience. Our current side wagers are: Royal Match, Lucky Ladies, Trifecta (w/ Progressive), Buster Blackjack, Free Bet Blackjack, and Extra Bet Blackjack. For more details on these games, please see below:

Guests are allowed to wager anywhere from $1-$50 on any of our side wagers:

• Royal Match: (Offered on Single Deck, Double Deck, and a Shoe)
  This side wager pays based upon your first two cards. If they are suited (both are clubs, spades, diamonds, or hearts) you win! Even better, if your first two cards are a suited King and Queen you will win $250 for every $1 that you bet on the bonus; and it can get even better than that! If both you and the dealer have a suited King and Queen in their first two cards at the same time, you will win an addition $1,000 bonus. Talk about a Royal Match!
• Lucky Ladies: (Offered on Single Deck, Double Deck, and a Shoe)
  This side wager is also based upon your first two cards. If your first two cards add up to 20 you win! The payout for having a 20 in your first two cards goes up significantly depending upon the type of 20 you have (suited, paired, suited paired, etc). Our biggest payout pays $1,000 for every $1 that you bet on the bonus. Lucky indeed!
• Trifecta (w/Progressive): (Offered on a Shoe only)
  This game comes with a side wager and a $5 progressive bonus. This game side wager plays a lot like the fan favorite 3-Card poker. If your first two cards and the dealers up card equal a flush or better, you win! The biggest payout comes from our progressive wager when a guest’s first two cards and the dealer’s up card creates 3 Aces (suited). Talk about Trifecta, this progressive currently pays out over 10k.
• Buster Blackjack: (Offered on a Shoe only)
  This side wager is based purely upon the dealer’s hand. If the dealer busts (their hand goes over 21) you win! How much you win is based upon how man cards it took for the dealer to bust. The highest payout is when the dealer takes 8 or more cards to bust. This will pay $250 for every $1 that was wagered on the bonus. Just another reason to cheer for a dealer to bust!
• Free Bet Blackjack: (Offered on a Shoe only)
  Free Bet blackjack is a game that allows you to double down and split your cards FOR FREE! If your first two cards add up to a 9, 10, or 11 (no ace) you can double for free. If your first two cards are a pair (excluding 10’s) you can split for free. How fun is that? When these circumstances arise, our dealer will place a Free Bet token next to your wager which covers your bet entirely. Free Bet Blackjack also offers a side wager called Dealer 22. This side wager pays when a dealer busts on a card total of 22. Who knew that you could bet more FOR FREE?
• Extra Bet Blackjack: (Offered on Single Deck, Double Deck, and a Shoe)
  Extra bet blackjack is a game unlike any other. On this game, guests are given the opportunity to wager more money after seeing their first card. If your first card is a 10, Jack, Queen, or a King you can wager up to an additional 5 times your wager. Once your wager has been completed the game continues just like a regular blackjack game would. If you get a blackjack, you will win 3 to 2 on both your main wager and your extra wager. If your hand beats the dealers hand you will be paid even money on both your main wager and extra wager. Talk about getting a little something Extra!

Baccarat is one of the most popular card games in the casino. Guests just have to choose whether they think the Player hand, or the Banker hand will win. It’s that simple. We are proud to offer two Baccarat variants: Dragon Bonus Baccarat and the Golden Frog Baccarat

Pai Gow Tiles is a Chinese dominoes game that is steeped in tradition. Each tile has a numeric value (based upon the number of dots on the tile) and every guest (including the dealer) gets four tiles to make two two-tile hands. This is a relatively advanced casino game; however, our dealers would love to teach you how to play. Stop by and learn today.

Craps is a highly social, action-packed casino game. On this game, guests can win on any roll of the dice. The most popular way to bet is by betting on the pass line (or with the shooter). For those of you that are new to the game of craps, the game is relatively simple. One person on the table will be chosen to shoot (or throw) two dice. The outcome of the shooters throw determines the outcome of the game. For example, when there is no point (or the shooter is “coming out”), if the shooter rolls a 7 or an 11 everyone that has a wager on the Pass Line wins. If the shooter rolls a 2, 3, or 12, everyone that has a wager on the Pass Line loses. If the shooter rolls a 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10; that becomes the point. Now the object of the game is for the shooter to hit their point before they roll another 7.

There are many side wagers on craps, however the Repeater Bet is our highlighted bonus bet at the Grand Sierra Resort. For this bonus bet, guests are wagering that a particular number (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, or 12) will be rolled a certain number of times before a seven is rolled. If they are correct, the payouts are big. Stop by our craps games any time and we can explain the details further.
