CHEROKEE, N.C. - People playing at the Cherokee Indian tribe&#39;s casino in Cherokee, North Carolina, have a new challenge - live digital blackjack. <br> <br> The game is a cross between a video card game and a traditional blackjack table. The casino started with four tables Monday and opened two more to meet demand for the game. <br> <br> A Dallas, Georgia, man says he likes the real cards better but says the digital game is good. <br> <br> Under the agreement the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians has with the state, live card dealers are prohibited and the tribe&#39;s casino can only offer video gambling machines. <br> <br> In digital blackjack, a computer deals the cards while a live dealer takes bets, makes payoffs and plays the house hand.
