Despite this background, MAO Gaming maintains that PENN Entertainment has consistently broken its half of the bargain.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Infringement on STREAK Side Bet Tables<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The main point of contention is the STREAK side bet that may be found on <a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/casino\/learn-how-to-play-blackjack\/\">blackjack<\/a> tables that have been approved by MAO Gaming. Players can place a wager on the consecutive number of times they will receive a blackjack deal (21) using this side bet.<\/p>\n<p>There are layout specifications that a casino must follow for its blackjack tables in order to have such a game in its repertoire. These specifications have been laid down by the Colorado Casino Gaming Commission, which requires the usage of authorized STREAK table layouts and the addition of STREAK buttons that correlate to each player\u2019s position in the game. These buttons have to have the logo or name of the retail licensee that is selling the game, along with distinguishing characteristics that MAO Gaming specifies.<\/p>\n<div class=\"main-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-items box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"box-100 space-org-3-item relative border-tb mt-1 \">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-logo-title-box box-100 text-left relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-box box-25 relative img-radius\">\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/download.katscasino.com\/affiliate\/remote\/aiddownload.asp?casinoID=1007&#038;gAID=122859&#038;subGid=0&#038;bannerID=25663\" title=\"Visit Site\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><br \/>\n\t\t<amp-img alt=\"Kats Casino\" src=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/kats-casino-1.jpg\" width=\"50\" height=\"50\" layout=\"fixed\"><br \/>\n\t\t<\/amp-img><br \/>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-title box-25 relative py-10\">\n\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/download.katscasino.com\/affiliate\/remote\/aiddownload.asp?casinoID=1007&#038;gAID=122859&#038;subGid=0&#038;bannerID=25663\" title=\"Kats Casino\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Kats Casino<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n\t\t<strong>250% Extra +<strong> $125 Free Chip<\/strong>!<\/strong><br \/>\n\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"pt-1\">New players only.
