Here at the Grand Sierra Resort, we are happy to offer a wide assortment of 3 to 2 and 6 to 5, 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 five different side wagers that are sure to add to your Grand experience. Our current side wagers are: Royal Match, Lucky Lucky, Trifecta, Free Bonus 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 Double Deck and 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 $25 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 Lucky: (Offered on Single Deck and Shoe)
  If your first two cards plus the dealer’s card add up to 19, 20 or 21 you win! The payout for having a 21 goes up significantly depending upon the type of 21 you have (678, 777, suited 678, suited 777). Our biggest payout pays $200 for every $1 that you bet on the bonus. Lucky indeed!
• Trifecta (w/Progressive): (Offered on a Shoe only)
  If your first two cards and the dealers up card equal a flush or better, you win! We offer our BSX progressive on the Trifecta game also. When the dealer’s first 2 cards are a 10-value and a 6 all participating guests get the Bonus Spin Extreme!
• Free Bonus Blackjack (w/Progressive): (Offered on a Shoe only)
  Free Bonus 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 the dealer’s first 2 cards are a 10-value and a 6 all participating guests get the Bonus Spin Extreme!
• Extra Bet Blackjack: (Offered on Single Deck, Double Deck, and a Shoe)
  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!
• Double Up Insanity: Start by making the mandatory Blackjack and/or the optional Dealer 22 wager. If the dealer receives Blackjack, all wagers lose. After receiving one card, you can begin doubling down. If you receive an Ace as your first card, you can only receive one additional card. Otherwise, you may double at any time with any number of cards. After doubling down each time, you may continue to stand, hit and re- double as in standard blackjack. When doubling down, you may double for less, or match up to the amount already in play. Table limits apply. There is no spliting. After all players have acted, the dealer will draw to their hand, hitting on soft 17. If the dealer draws to 22, all standing wagers push. Winning wagers, except blackjack and insurance, pay even money. The optional Dealer 22 side wager pays if the dealer busts with a total of exactly 22.

3-Card Poker is a fan favorite poker variant where you bet that your 3-Card poker hand will beat the Dealer’s 3-Card poker hand. This game comes with two side wagers, Players Bonus and 6-Card Bounty.

Jackpot Hold’em is a Texas Hold’em version where everyone (including the dealer) gets two cards and shares the five community cards at the center of the table. What is great about this game is that the only hand you need to beat is the dealer’s hand. What fun!? Jackpot Hold’em comes with two bonus wagers (Xtra Bonus and Player Bonus).

Roulette is an extremely popular table game where a guest of any knowledge level can play. You just pick a number that the dealer will roll next, and you win! It is a highly social game and just a joy to play. There are several wider ranging bets where you can bet red or black, odd or even, or blocks of numbers if you don’t have an exact number you want to play.

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 Dai Bac.

• Dragon Bonus Baccarat: (commission game) 
• Dragon Bonus Baccarat offers a side wager (Dragon Bonus) where you can bet on the difference the player or banker hand beats the opposing hand. The greater the margin, the greater the payout.
• Dai Bac: (commission free game) Dai Bac offers two side wagers: Tiger 7 and Ox 8. The Tie is also offered in this version of the game. The Tiger 7 pays 40 to 1 when the Banker hand wins with a 3 card 7. The Ox 8 Bonus pays 25 to 1 when the Player hand wins with a 3 card 8.

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 shooter’s 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.

Bonus Craps is back at GSR! The All, Tall, Small as some people call it, is a bet you’ll want to make on the come-out roll for sure! At the beginning of a roll, Guests can wager on the ‘All Small’ numbers (2-6), the ‘All Tall’ numbers (8-12) and even ‘Make ‘Em All’. As numbers are rolled, they are marked with a button denoting so. When all the small numbers hit, the ‘All Small’ wagers win 30 to 1, same goes for the ‘All Tall’ numbers. And when ALL the numbers are rolled, that’s when the ‘Make ‘Em All’ wagers win 150 to 1! Only a Seven can clear these bets, so get in while you can, and maybe you can be the next one to Make ‘Em All!
