It looks like a main blackjack bet and 2 side bets. Possibly LuckyLucky and Perfect Pairs

The three circles might be basic bets for Triple Attack Black Jack. In that game there are three circles. If you split or double, they just put it to the left of the first bet.
The two squares are probably side bets. Perfect Pairs sounds logical, since the yellow square has a PP logo in it. The red square has a 7 in it. Perhaps the Lucky Sevens bet?

Superstitions are silly, childish, irrational rituals, born out of fear of the unknown. But how much does it cost to knock on wood? 😁

it looks like a multi action blackjack table with two side bets.......the two side bets are the sevens and the perfect pairs.......the three betting spots would be: the first spot is for the player who is playing the hand, he must bet the table min......the other two spots will be for back bettor's who only need to wager $5 but cannot play the hand.

They look to me like side bet wagering spots. The first (furthest from dealer) one looks like the main BJ wager, the second spot has the Perfect Pairs logo, and the third is for another side bet, probably Lucky Lucky as someone else has said.
Although I am more confused by the fact they are playing BJ with what appears to be Roulette Colour Chips.

Those aren't Roulette chips. They're standard game store chips.Quote: CroupierAlthough I am more confused by the fact they are playing BJ with what appears to be Roulette Colour Chips.
You will very rarely (never?) see photos of players with real checques. I don't know if it's because of regulations or just that you don't want one to go missing in a photo shoot.
It would look better if they didn't include yellow and blue chips...

Holy crap!
I did a search for photos of blackjack at istockphoto.com - the same stock photo company where I often get photos for my clients (I'm also a typesetter / art designer).
The second photo in the search was this one:
Does part of it look familiar?
It's generic because it could have been sold to anyone. In fact, a competing casino can purchase it as well.
They did a very good job of disguising the fact that any more than one player is well dressed, and also hide the empty chip rack.

I can understand a (real) casino not wanting to "loan" out its chips for anything less than face value. Still, you'd think they'd be able to round up some generic chips with traditional colors and denominations, perhaps without a venue name or dollar sign printed on them.
That looks like a bizarro Let it Ride layout.

I just realized....
Those are the same models, and the same generic chips, (and the same pasted-on happy expressions), as the photo I used on my Poker For Roulette website. Not sure why the blonde changed her dress. Hmmm.....
FYI: Yes, I purchased that photo from istockphotos.com (for about $1.50).
