New Blackjack Game Debuts at California Casino

The new game, called Blackjack with Guaranteed Play (TM), involves allowing players the opportunity to buy thirty hands' worth of chips for a single low buy-in.

Jay Walker, a renowned businessman and entrepreneur, has developed a new form of blackjack designed to draw players looking to minimize risk and stretch their time at the tables. The new game, called Blackjack with Guaranteed Play (TM), involves allowing players the opportunity to buy thirty hands' worth of chips for a single low buy-in.

For example, for $20, a gambler can purchase $150 worth of Guaranteed Play Chips, valued at $5 each. Now the patron can play thirty hands, and gets to keep any winnings above the amount of the Guaranteed Play Chips.

Similarly, $40 buys $300 in special chips with a value of $10 each; and $60 gets $450
in $15 Guaranteed Chips.

There is no limit on winnings, while the player does not risk more than his initial buy-in. This feature is attractive to slot players who often avoid table games, wanting a chance to win without exposing themselves to the risk of losing a bundle.

Currently, Walker's game is available only at Barona Valley Ranch Resort and Casino near San Diego. Barona also plans to expand the trademarked concept, already having debuted Video Poker with Guaranteed Play (TM), once again allowing a player to see many hands at one low price.

Walker was cited by Time magazine as "one of America's 50 most influential business leaders in the digital age." He is one of a handful of living people to hold over two hundred patents, and he has been involved in developing over six hundred proprietary business sysytems and solutions for a variety of fields, from entertainment and gaming, to defense, travel, and publishing.
