(1)	At the discretion of the retail licensee, players who have placed a “double up” wager and have already placed a dealer toke on the blackjack wager, may be permitted to place tip bets for the dealer on that “double up” wager. If such tip wagers are accepted, winning “double up” wagers must be paid at the same odds as the player’s winning wagers. The retail licensee may require tip wagers to be in an even dollar amount, and may limit the maximum amount of such tip wagers.

In this manner, a player can “double up for less” than the original blackjack wager.
(5)	Players will not be paid 2:1 automatically if they receive a ten after splitting Aces.  
(6)	A player’s main and “double up” wager (or any other wagers when placed) will be paid 1:1 when the dealer has a 16 and the player has a 21. This includes all hands of 21 that result from a player doubling down, splitting Aces, and hitting.  
(7)	A player’s main and “double up” wager (when placed) will push on any hand other than a total of 21 when the dealer has a 16.
Dealer Rules:
(1)	The dealer will play by all standard blackjack rules and those described above in version 1 except if the total of the dealer’s hand reaches 16, play will stop and the dealer will:
