The Trilux Table

The Trilux table deals the same blackjack as the main floor — six decks, blackjack pays 3 to 2, dealer stands on all 17s, insurance at 2:1. Everything below is what changes when you sit down there:

• · Different side bets. Match the Dealer, Trilux Bonus and Prime Suit Superpot replace Perfect Pairs and 21+3. The Empress Crown bet also rides here, with its own pot.
• · Its own chip bankroll, separate from your main stack.
• · Its own daily bonus, chip wheel and property pick — claiming at one table doesn't use up the other's.
• · Classic or Matador 21. Both rule sets deal here — pick one with the toggle above the felt. Matador swaps in 48-card decks and its own paytable; the Trilux side bets and pots ride either way.

Matador 21 pulls all four 10s out of every deck (48 cards — J/Q/K stay). In exchange your 21 and your blackjack always win, even against a dealer 21, you get late surrender, and multi-card 21s pay bonuses. Full paytable on the how to play page.

Worth knowing before you sit: a ten-less shoe cuts the supply of ten-value cards by a quarter, which makes dealer blackjacks and two-card 20s rarer. Match the Dealer already pays more for a suited match here to compensate, but the Empress Crown and Prime Suit Superpot bets hit less often under Matador than under classic rules. The pots are shared across both rule sets, so they grow either way.

The Trilux table has a separate chip balance. It starts at zero and is funded by moving chips across from your main stack with the Chips button above the felt — nothing carries over automatically. Win at Trilux and the winnings stay in the Trilux bankroll; lose and only that bankroll shrinks.

You can move chips either direction, any time you're not mid-hand. Your net worth for High Rollers and VIP counts both wallets together, so moving money between them never costs you rank.

Run dry at Trilux and there's no house stake — the rescue chips are a main-table courtesy. Move more across instead.

Optional side bet placed before the deal ($1 minimum, $100 maximum, applies to each hand you play). It wins when either of your first two cards matches the dealer's upcard by rank — paid instantly at the deal, win or lose the main hand. Both cards can match, and both pay:

Two unsuited matches pay 8:1; a suited and an unsuited pay 15:1.

Optional side bet placed before the deal ($1 minimum, $100 maximum, per hand). Your first two cards plus the dealer's upcard form a three-card poker hand — paid instantly at the deal. Unlike 21+3 on the main floor, every winning hand pays the same flat price, and anything below a flush pays nothing:

Aces play high or low in straights (A-2-3 and Q-K-A both count), but a straight doesn't wrap around the corner — K-A-2 is nothing.

Optional side bet placed before the deal ($1 minimum, $100 maximum, per hand). Prime Suit Superpot ignores your cards entirely and pays on the dealer's own hand — resolved at the deal:

Every Prime Suit stake feeds the pot, which is shown live on the table sign and reseeds at 10,000 chips after a hit. Note these are flat chip amounts, not odds — the payout is the same whether you bet $1 or $100, so there's no reason to bet big on it.

A dealer blackjack is bad news for your main hand — Prime Suit is the consolation.

Empress Crown plays exactly like the classic table's Dynasty 20: your first two cards totalling 20, paid at the deal, with a Queen of Hearts pair alongside a dealer blackjack taking the whole progressive pot. The pots are completely separate — Empress Crown is funded only by play at this table, and Dynasty 20 only by the classic floor. Neither ever pays out the other.

The daily bonus, chip wheel and Vegas property pick are per table. Claim them at the main table and they land in your main stack; claim them at Trilux and they land in your Trilux bankroll. Each table has its own once-a-day allowance, so you can take both.

Your login streak is still counted once per day across the whole club — playing both tables doesn't grow it any faster.
