Notes

Playing Blackjack In Vegas

• Only the dealer and player hands are shown, even if other gambling non-player characters are present at the table.
• Blackjack is the safest of the three casino games, being relatively easy to win with only basic knowledge of the game and decent Luck. A Luck of 8 is usually sufficient to win the majority of hands you are dealt.
• When the dealer is passing out the cards, their first card is dealt from the middle.
• If textures are not set to high, it can be difficult to tell which cards were dealt.
• If playing with a fullscreen aspect ratio, the HUD displaying your current bet, chips, and earnings will cover up your cards, making it difficult to determine the value of your hand.
• If you try to cheat the system by loading after a loss, the dealer will take a minute to 'change out the deck' before you can continue playing.
• Though the description of Luck states that a high Luck slightly increases your chances at the casinos, the difference is actually quite significant. For a Courier with Luck of 8 or more, it is possible to get banned from each casino in the game with fewer than a dozen total losses. At 10 Luck, 9 times out of 10, hitting on 20 will draw the Ace.
• The 3 of Hearts in Gomorrah is missing a heart.
