 (a)  Except as provided in §  631a.9(d) (relating to hands of player and banker; procedure for dealing initial two cards to each hand), after the initial four cards have been dealt and the dealer calling the game places the cards face up in front of himself, the dealer calling the game shall announce the Point Count of the Player’s Hand and the Banker’s Hand.

 (b)  Following the announcement of the Point Counts of each hand, the dealer calling the game shall instruct the curator whether to deal a third card to either or both hands in accordance with §  631a.11 (relating to rules for determining whether a third card shall be dealt). Any third cards required shall be dealt as provided in §  631a.9(c) or (d).

 (c)  In no event may more than one additional card be dealt to either hand.

 (d)  If the cover card appears as the first card in the dealing shoe at the beginning of a round of play or appears during play, the cover card shall be removed and placed to the side and the hand will be completed. Upon completion of that hand, the dealer calling the game shall announce ‘‘last hand.’’ At the completion of one more hand, the cards shall be replaced with new decks of cards.
