Discard Tray

1 min read

A tray on the dealer’s right side that holds all the cards that have been played or discarded in card games like Baccarat, Blackjack and Poker. 

A "discard tray" is a designated area or container in a casino game, particularly in card games like blackjack and poker, where players place their used or discarded cards. After a player has completed their turn or when a round of play has ended, cards that are no longer in play are typically placed in the discard tray. This helps keep the game organized and allows the dealer to manage the game more efficiently. In some games, the discard tray may also be used to track which cards have been played, which can be important for certain strategies.
