At the end of this round, the croupier deals a second card to each player. When all the bets have been placed, the croupier deals a card for each player and themself, starting on their left and ending with themself. The players’ bets, represented only by chips or plaques, are placed, within the limits of the minimum and the maximum, before the cards are dealt. They cannot, however, give a player instructions or advice, they must simply respect the player’s choices. Standing players can bet on the hand of a seated player if the latter agrees, and within the limits of the maximum bet authorized for the hand. If seats are not occupied, seated players can bet on the vacant spots. The number of seated players, the only ones likely to have a hand, corresponds to the number of locations marked on the mat. The cards are worth their face value, with the exception of the face cards (Jack, Queen, King) which are worth 10 points. Whatever your total (21 or under), you must beat the croupier's score! The objective is to total 21 points or at least to come as close as possible without exceeding it: going over means you've lost.
