blackjack dealer

Casino table employee

A blackjack dealer is the casino employee who runs a blackjack table—shuffling, dealing cards, collecting losing bets, and paying winners.

The dealer follows fixed rules: hit on 16, stand on 17.

The blackjack dealer busted, and everyone at the table won.

Beyond casinos, anyone dealing cards in a blackjack game.
