A reflective surface is disposed generally below said aperture to reflect the portion of the face-down card being read through the non-covered portion of the aperture to reveal to the dealer any indicia on the portion of the face down card being read. There is also disclosed herein a method for increasing the speed of play in an organized game of blackjack.
