The bust limit drops to 19 for both sides. Original natural blackjacks settle before chaos; other hands above the new limit bust, including starting hands pushed over it by a rule.
Playing against it
- Treat the new limit as your 21 and stand much earlier.
- The dealer still draws to its usual stand total, which now risks a bust: standing on a modest hand is often enough.
