Why do casinos burn the top card in baccarat and blackjack?
Burning the top card has several minor advantages, mostly to do with discouraging cheaters. If a dealer knew the top card, they could move another card into its place or signal to a confederate what the card was. Burning the card thus discourages the dealers from cheating, either for the casino or against it. Also, burning the card keeps a player from seeing the top card and getting an advantage. Finally, when you burn the cards, this penetrates the deck a little further without giving out information, so it foils card counters in some small way.
What is a blackjack pit boss?
The pit boss is an assistant manager at a casino who oversees a number of blackjack tables at one. Notice that the tables are arranged in an elliptical fashion with a space set aside at the center of the perimeter. The pit boss stands inside this "pit", watching the various tables under his or her supervision. The pit boss watches for any suspicious activity by players, dealers, or passers-by.
Should I have a bankroll when I play blackjack?
You should have a bankroll anytime you walk into a casino or log-on to play for real money online. A bankroll is your stake in the game and it limits your risk, because it's less than the size of your bank account or the max limit on your credit card. A bankroll should be enough to make the game interesting, but not enough that it hurts you if you lose. When you have a bankroll, any one hand should be no more than 5% of your bankroll, so you can keep playing for a while.
