Minimum and maximum wagers will always vary from table to table, so make sure you know what the appropriate amount is before playing. The Lucky Ladies wager needs to be at least the minimum amount as advertised on the table. If playing with others, it may be permissible to place a Lucky Ladies bet on another player’s hand, without needing to put forward your own standard blackjack bet. To place a Lucky Ladies wager, we must first make a standard blackjack bet. If they do not total 21, we lose the side bet, but our main wager and the game continues. If we have placed the Lucky Ladies bet, we only receive a bonus payout if the sum of our first two cards are 20. All other rules which are relevant to the game being played are not affected by the Lucky Ladies wager. In games which offer this wager, there will be a designated area for such a bet, adjacent to the regular blackjack bet (usually a small, separate circle).Ī Lucky Ladies wager, like all side bets, has no association or influence on the main blackjack bet and is entirely based on our first two cards. The Lucky Ladies side bet is a wager made on the first two cards dealt that they will total 20 points, in any combination.
