Blackjack

During your normal dealing, you will be told by your floor supervisor that you have a fill incoming. If you are in the middle of a hand at the moment, you are expected to finish out the hand before then asking all players to remove / retract their bets to make way for the birdcage. If there are players that did not retract their bets, you may move them off the betting spots yourself by simply pushing the bet off towards the apron area of the table with palm up using the tips of your fingers.

Once security has places the birdcage on your game, you will remove the racks and security will remove the birdcage off of your game. Your next step will be to stand up all cheques in descending order keeping higher denominations closer to you as usual. You will then verify that all stacks are full stacks of 20 unless otherwise indicated by the fill slip that comes with the fill.

You will cut down at least 1 stack of the highest denomination and leave it broken down for floor to verify the amounts indicated on the fill slip before giving the paper to you to double verify. This is where knowing your stack values are very important. If you happen to notice even a dollar discrepancy between what is on the paper and what you have received from security, you must immediately notify floor of the issue and if it is an incorrect amount, you will reject the fill by placing all cheques back in the racks and security will take all cheques back to the cage to get fixed.

Assuming that the fill is correct, you will sign your name and employee number on the bottom of the fill slip. You will then begin to put away each stack into your rack starting with the highest denomination.

Credits, as shown in the video are essentially the opposite of a fill but all pertinent information remains the same as a fill procedure.

Keep in mind that this video shows a generic fill and this procedure is always subject to change per your house rules and regulations. Remain flexible and know that every house has their own rules.
