If the player acting as a dealer wins, he receives the winnings, but if he los- es, he must pay each other player. • The house usually charges a fee to play, ei- ther as a dealer or a player. • The house may even provide a person (such as an employee) who has a large enough bankroll to cover the table's bets. Known as the "corporation", this person sits at first base and is usually employed with a contract company for the casino. • If the person acting as dealer doesn't have enough winnings to cover the losses, the "corporation" person covers the remainder, thus splitting the wins or losses with the deal- ing player. • The "corporation" generally doesn't bet when not the "banker" however they do play the "banker" every time their turn comes around. The most they can win is even mon- ey for the total amount put up to bank with. So if a player puts up $100 to bank with, the most they can win back is $100. In summary, Holly has the chance of at least getting her wager back (if both she and the dealer bust), and, in our scenario, Holly wins a ton of cash! Also, she skips the headache of Desert traffic getting out to the Indian Casinos. Holly goes back to the mansion to spread the good news and her fellow Bun- nies are all amazed at how much she won. "Hey we should go play Blackjack at the LA Casinos too!" They might have just caught a little bit of Blackjack Fevers.
