Are you allowed to use a cell phone while you play
blackjack?
Most casinos have regulations that forbid players to use electronic devices
including cell phones while they play blackjack. However, most
players who must make a call while they are playing (for example, a player
gets a page), can do so by just stepping away from the table and then
using their cell phone. By the way, this turns out to be a technique used by
some pros to avoid betting in a negative shoe. They fake getting a
page when the count goes south, make some excuse that they need to me a
call, and then wait until the shoe is over before returning to the table.
