Dealers at the famous Grand Victoria Casino in Illinois are to get additional training so they can operate the resort's new double-deck blackjack game.

Discussing the implementation of the new offering, table games chief Mark Blackman told the Southtown Star newspaper that there had been difficulties due to few workers knowing how it works.

"One of my problems is I don't have that many people who are proficient at dealing the game yet," he said, adding that "we'll try and train all of our dealers".

Grand Victoria Casino is the most profitable gaming venue in the Chicago area.

Situated in Elgin, the 400 ft long 100 ft wide riverboat resort features 18 blackjack tables, as well as roulette, craps, mini-baccarat, three-card poker and Caribbean stud poker facilities.

It also contains more than 1,000 slot machines and is open for 22 hours every single day to punters aged 21 and over.
