The objective of the game is obtaining a hand value that is closest to 21 and higher than the dealer's hand without going over. Your hand or hands, depending at which table you play in the casino, will play against the total of the dealer's hand.

How to Play

Initially, both the dealer and the player are dealt two cards per hand. Player cards are dealt face up and one dealer card is dealt face up. A Blackjack is when the sum of the first two totals 21. The combination can be any Ace with any card with a value of 10.

Deck

The shoe of cards can consist of any number of decks from 1 to 8, this depends of the rules of the house. The number of decks used at a table affect the odds of house. The more decks the better the odds are for the house. The casino lobby indicates the number of decks used in each game.

Cards Value

In Blackjack, the cards are valued as follows: An Ace can count as either 1 or 11. Cards from 2 through 9 keep their face value. The 10, Jack, Queen, and King are all valued at 10.

The Dealer Hand

The plays that the Dealer makes are defined by a set of table rules that determine his actions. Usually these rules are indicated on the blackjack table. The main guidelines for the Dealer hand are:

      Hit on 16 or less
      Stand on Soft 17
      Stand on Hard 17 or higher

A soft hand is where an Ace is counted as either 1 or 11 without going over 21
A hard hand has no Aces or just one Ace must count as one so that the hand does not go over 21

The Player Hand

After the cards are dealt the player must play his/her hand first. The player can make several choices once his two initial cards are dealt. The player's action would depend on the strategy used by the player to the two initial cards. Some tables will have rules that other tables may not have so it is a good idea for the player to find out which tables in the casino are the ones that suit his or her gambling style. These options are indicated in the casino lobby when choosing a game. The Players hand is over when: A Blackjack comes up, Player chooses to stand or Player busts.

These are the choices a player has after being deal the first two cards:

Stand

The player chooses this option if he/she wishes to stand with the cards they have.

Deal

The dealer gives the player another card.

Double

Player can choose to take only one hit and double the amount of his/her bet. This option may vary in how it is offered. Some tables allow a Double on any two cards and some allow it only when the combination of the initial two cards equals 9, 10 or 11. Some tables may even offer a late double that can be played after the player already has 3 cards. These options if available are indicated in the casino lobby. The double option, if played correctly can be very beneficial for the player.

Split

If the player has two cards of equal value, he/she can choose to split the cards into two hands by doubling the amount of the bet. In a Split blackjack is not recognized. Some tables allow players to split multiple times. As with a Double, if played correctly Splits can increase player odds significantly.

Some games will not allow re-splitting Aces and a lot of games will not allow hitting after splitting Aces. Games that allow you to re-split aces and hit after splitting aces are of big advantage for the player.

Insurance

When the dealer's face up card is an Ace players have the option to purchase Insurance. Insurance generally pays 2:1 and is indicated on the table. Insurance can be understood as a side bet on whether the dealer has blackjack or not. If the dealer has blackjack the insurance bet is a winner.

Even Money

Even Money is sometimes used when a player is dealt a Blackjack and the dealer has a face up Ace. The player can take an Even Money payout of 1:1 instead of the usual 1.5:1 and avoid the risk of the dealer having a blackjack which would result in a push.

Surrender

If the player is unsatisfied with the first 2 cards and feels the dealer has a much better chance then the player can surrender and only lose half the bet amount. Surrender is generally a house favorable option.

Bust

This is when the Player's or Dealer's hand total goes over 21. A Busted hand is automatically a loser.

Push

Push is when the Player's hand equals the total of the Dealer's hand. This is tie and the player receives his/her bet amount back.

Minimum / Maximum Bet

Min bet: displays the minimum bet amount required to play a hand. Max bet: displays the maximum bet amount allowed at the table. This is shown in the top right hand corner of the table.

Multi-Hands

Some Blackjack tables will allow a player to play multiple hands at the same time. A player can play either one, two or three hands simultaneously. The casino lobby indicates which tables will allow a player play multiple hands.

Stored Games

In the event the player looses internet connectivity on or closes his/her browser window in the middle of a game, the game in progress will be stored. Once back in the casino the pending game may be restored and finished by the player.

Blackjack Variations:

Description and Objective

Play 3 Hands
Min.Bet: $1, Max.Bet: $200

The object of the blackjack game is to accumulate cards with point totals as close to 21 without going over 21. Face cards (Jacks, Queens and Kings) are worth 10 points. Aces are worth 1 or 11, whichever is preferable. Other cards are represented by their number.

If player and the House tie, it is a push and no one wins. Ace and 10 (Blackjack) on the first two cards dealt is an automatic player win at 1.5 to 1, unless the house ties. A player may stand at any time.

Playing 6 Deck Blackjack

To win you need to beat the dealer without busting. You bust when your cards total to more than 21 and you lose automatically. The winner is whoever has closest to a total of 21. You reach 21 by adding up the values of the cards.

The blackjack table seats about 6 players. Six decks of cards are used and are shuffled together by the dealer and placed in a card dispensing box called 'Shoe'.

Before receiving any cards players must place a wager. Then the players are dealt two cards face up. The dealer gets one face up, one face down. Each player in turn either stays or takes more cards to try and get closer to 21 without busting. Players who do not bust wait for the dealer's turn. When all the players are done, the dealer turns up the down card. By rule, on counts of 17 or higher the dealer must stay; on counts of 16 or lower the dealer must draw.

If you make a total of 21 with the first two cards (a 10 or a face and an Ace), you win automatically. This is called 'Blackjack'. If you have Blackjack, you will win one and one-half times your bet unless the dealer also has Blackjack, in which case it is a Push or a Tie (or a Stand-off) and you get your bet back.

The remaining players with a higher count than the dealer win an amount equal to their bet. Players with a lower count than the dealer lose their bet. If the dealer busts, all the remaining players win. There are other betting options namely Insurance, Surrender, Double Down, Even Money and Split.

• Insurance: side bet up to half the initial bet against the dealer having a natural 21 - allowed only when the dealer's showing card is an Ace. If the dealer has a 10 face down and makes a blackjack, insurance pays at 2-1 odds, but loses if the dealer does not.
• Surrender: giving up your hand and lose only half the bet.
• Early Surrender: surrender allowed before the dealer checks for blackjack.
• Late Surrender: the dealer first checks to see if he has blackjack. If he does, surrender is not permitted.
• Double Down: double your initial bet following the initial two-card deal, but you can hit one card only. A good bet if the player is in a strong situation.
• Even Money: cashing in your bet immediately at a 1:1 payout ratio when you are dealt a natural blackjack and the dealer's showing card is an Ace.
• Split Hand: split the initial two-card hand into two and play them separately - allowed only when the two first cards are of equal value. Use each card as the start to a separate hand and place a second bet equal to the first.
• Hard Hand: A hand without an Ace, or with an Ace valued at 1 is said to be Hard in that it can only be given one value, unlike a Soft Hand. (You can value an Ace 1 or 11 to suit you).
• Soft Hand: A hand that contains an Ace counted as 11 is called a Soft Hand.

House advantage (approximate, may vary with different rules)
Without basic strategy 7% average.
With basic strategy 0.5% or less.
Card counting can reverse the advantage up to 1% to the player.

Some blackjack variations

Using different number of decks: all other conditions being the same, as a general rule the fewer the decks, the better for the player.

Allowing the dealer to hit a soft 17: a disadvantage to the player. It gives the dealer a chance to improve.

Allowing a double down after splitting pairs: can be advantageous to the player if used wisely.

Allowing re-splitting of Aces: a clear advantage to the player.

No dealer hole card: common on cruise ships, this variation is a disadvantage to the player. The dealer does not deal himself a second card until the players have played and they can lose the doubles and splits.

Description and Objective

BJ pays 6:5
Min. Bet: $1, Max. Bet: $200

 

In Single-Deck Blackjack, you and the dealer (the computer) are dealt two cards to start. The objective of Blackjack is to accumulate cards that add up closer to 21 than that of the dealer's cards, without going over 21.

 

 

Summary of rules:

1. One 52-card deck is used
   
2. The deck is re-shuffled after each hand
   
3. Dealer draws to soft 17's and stands on hard 17's
   
4. Doubling after splitting allowed
   
5. No re-splitting of cards allowed
   
6. No surrender
   
7. Only one additional card allowed on each Ace when splitting a pair of Aces

How to play:
Single-Deck Blackjack is played with one fifty-two card deck. After each game has been played, the used cards are shuffled back into the deck. All face cards are valued at ten and the cards from 2-10 are valued as indicated. Aces can be valued at either one or eleven; if counting the Ace as eleven would put the hand over twenty-one, the Ace is automatically counted as one instead. You do not need to specify which value the Ace has as it's always assumed to have the value that makes the best hand. The value of a hand is the sum of the values of the individual cards. For example, a hand containing a Jack, 3, and 4 has a value of 17.

Betting:
Your chips are stacked by denomination ($1, $5, $25, $100, $500) at the bottom of the screen above your User label. Select the amount you would like to wager on a given hand by clicking the left mouse button on the chip of that denomination. The amount wagered per hand may be increased or decreased by placing the mouse on the stack that you wish to add or subtract to your bet. Each time you click the left mouse button you will add a chip from that pile to your planned wager amount. Likewise by clicking on the right mouse button you can decrease your planned wager amount. You may repeat your last bet by simply hitting the "0" button of your numeric keyboard. Other keyboard shortcuts are summarized below. If you place a wager that is lower than the minimum table bet limit, your bet amount will be automatically adjusted to the minimum bet amount.

Once your bet has been placed, you will then receive two cards face up. The dealer will receive one card face up and one face down. Once you have been dealt your two cards (and based on the nature of these cards) you can do the following by clicking with the left mouse button on the appropriate button:

Hit:
This requests another card. You can request a hit as many times as you like, but if your total goes over twenty-one, you will "bust" and lose the hand.

Stand:
This requests that you receive no more cards. The hand as it currently stands will be judged against the dealers.

Split:
This option will only be active immediately after you receive your first two cards. If you have two cards of the same denomination, a Split button will appear. You can split your cards into two hands and play each hand separately. Your original bet will be duplicated for the new hand. Each hand will be played out as usual except when splitting Aces, where only one additional card per hand is dealt. A white box displaying your card total will appear over each hand indicating which hand is active. The split option can only be used once per hand - you cannot split part of a split hand. Any winning 21 obtained after splitting a pair is paid 1-to-1.

Double Down:
This option will only be active immediately after you receive your first two cards. If you select this option, three things will happen: you will get exactly one more card, your turn will end, and your bet will be doubled.

Insurance:
Whenever the dealer's up-card is an Ace, the player has an option of taking insurance for half the amount of the original bet. When you do this, you are effectively betting that the dealer's unseen card is one with a value of ten.

You may opt to take insurance by clicking on the "Insurance " button. If you do not wish to take insurance, you simply click on the "Pass" button to proceed with the rest of the hand.

By taking insurance, you are placing a side bet of half the original wager. If the dealer does have a 10 ranking card (ie. a natural blackjack), the player is immediately paid 2-to-1 on the insurance bet, but the original wager is lost unless the player too has a blackjack and pushes with the dealer.

If the dealer does not have a natural twenty-one, the rest of the hand is played out as usual and you will lose your insurance money.

If you win the hand, you will get back your original bet plus the same amount in profit.

If you win with a natural blackjack, you will be paid off at three-to-two odds, which means you get your original bet back plus 150% profit. (So if you bet $50 and win with a natural twenty-one, you get $50 (your bet) plus $75 (your bet plus half of your bet), which totals to $125.

Payoffs:

Result	Payoff
Winning Hand	1 to 1
Blackjack	3 to 2
Insurance	2 to 1

Betting Limits:
$25 minimum initial ante
$300 maximum bet.

Setting your table bet limit:

You may also set your table bet limit below the maximum specified limit by selecting Bet Options from the Game Menu. The Modify Table Bet Limit window will appear on the screen. To reduce your maximum table bet limit type in the new limit in the appropriate box and confirm it by typing your PIN in the box below. Click on the OK button to complete the update. Please be aware that you can modify your table bet limit no more than once per week (Friday 12:00 AM EST) and that using the Modify Table Bet Limit function affects the bet limit for all games and not just the game that you are currently playing.

Basic Blackjack Strategy:

Basic blackjack strategy is defined as the proper play of cards knowing only your hand and the dealer's exposed card. It does not involve card counting or remembering which cards were played previously. The basic blackjack strategy is created through intensive computer simulations which perform a complete combinatorial analysis. In this method, the computer "plays" tens of thousands of hands for each Blackjack situation possible and statistically decides which decision best favours the player.

Basic strategy is usually printed as tables with the dealer's up card the first row and your two card combination the first column. The other entries in the table tell you what to do (Stand, Hit, Double-Down, Split) with the different combinations of dealer and player's hands. Basic blackjack strategy tables for rules (dealer stands on 17, double-down on any two cards, double after split allowed, no re-splitting of cards allowed, no surrender) are shown below for hard totals, soft totals, and pairs along with a legend.

Legend:
S - Stand
H - Hit
D - Double
Y - Yes, split
N - No, don't split

Numeric Keyboard Shortcuts:

Keyboard Entry	Action
0	Repeat last bet
Enter	Deal, Stand
+	Hit

/	Split
1	Pass, Refuse Insurance
Up Arrow	Increase bet by $1
Down Arrow	Decrease bet by $1

For keyboards without keypads, you must use the "Fn" key plus the shortcuts above (e.g. + Enter). Please note that these keyboard shortcuts are offered as a suggestion only. Some computers behave differently than others and therefore we cannot guarantee that the shortcuts will apply to all computers.

• A player 21 always wins.
• Player blackjack beats dealer blackjack.
• Player may double on any number of cards.
• Player may usually hit and double down after splitting aces
• Player may surrender half of total bet after doubling down
• A five-card 21 pays 3 to 2, a six-card 21 pays 2 to 1, a seven or more card 21 pays 3 to 1. However the bonuses are not paid if the player doubled.
• A 6-7-8 or 7-7-7 of mixed suits pays 3:2, of the same suit pays 2:1, and of spades pays 3:1.
• Suited 7-7-7 when the dealer has a seven face up pays $1000 for bets of $5-$24 and $5000 for bets of $25 or over.

Although originally an Italian game, Baccarat became famous in France in the 15th century. This is considered on of the most glamorous games in a casino.

The player's objective in Baccarat is to correctly guess which of three possible propositions will win the round: Bank, Player, or Tie.

 

 

 

How to Play

Whichever hand is closest to nine is the winner. Two cards are dealt to the Bank hand and two cards are dealt to the Player hand. Sometimes a third card must be dealt to either or both hands; this depends on the outcome of the first two cards. The player needs not to worry about the third card as the dealer is the one responsible for keeping track of the game.

Betting

The player may start the game by placing a bet on the field that he or she feels will win the turn
" Player - Pays even money.
" Banker - Pays even money minus a 5% commission which is collected on winning bets.
" Tie - Pays 8 to 1 if the Player and Banker point totals tie.

Banker

It is important to understand that "Banker" does not represent the house but merely a field to place a bet on the Baccarat table. The casino house makes its money by taking 5% commission from the winnings of the banker field, should it be the winner. The game rules slightly favor the Banker's hand.

Deck

The game is usually dealt from an eight-deck shoe. It is reshuffled when the shoe reaches about 50%

Cards Value

Cards ACE to NINE are worth their face value of 1 to 9.
Cards TEN to KING are worth 0 (zero).
Cards are dealt in the following order: card to player, card to banker, card to player, card to banker. (4 cards)

Cards Total Value

The TOTAL value of the cards cannot exceed 9. So, if the total value exceeds 9 then the last digit is used. Example 8 + 9 = 17 Player has 7

Winning Tie

Banker has 9

The Tie hand is paid at eight to one. Thus a winning tie bet of $10 will return $80. If you bet on either Bank or Player and the Tie wins, you do not lose your bet. It is a push

House Edge Percentage

Edge in favor of the casino is as follows depending on where the bet is placed:

Tie 14.1%
Banker 1.17% (5% commission on wins)
Player 1.36.%

The Tie bet has a 14.1 percent edge in favor of the casino. The house gets a 1.36 percent edge on the Player bet and a 1.17 percent edge on the Bank bet when the bank charges a five percent commission.

Strategy

A predominant aspect of the baccarat games played at the local casino is the scorecard. Casinos encourage this behavior simply because they know it has no bearing on the outcome of the game. One hand has no bearing on the next, and is never influenced by the preceding hands.

If you were betting on the flip of a coin, and it landed heads up 9 times in a row. The chance of the coin landing tails up on the 10th flip is exactly 50%, just as it was the first nine times. Any Baccarat strategy that makes you change your bets based on previous hands is useless and should be completely disregarded.

Min. Bet: $1, Max. Bet: $200

The objective of the game is to bet on the outcome of the dice, that you as the shooter roll. The payouts outs are made based on the sum of the numbers of the dice once the roll stops. Bets can be based on these two main things:

• The total sum of the numbers on the dice
• That a particular total of the dice before comes up before another total

 

 

How to Play

To begin the game, you as the shooter make an initial come out roll, here you must make a Pass Line or a Don't Pass Bar bet prior to rolling the dice. Depending on your choice for this initial bet, you will aim to roll specific numbers in order to win.

Craps

Craps is considered any dice rolled totaling 2, 3 or 12

Pass Line

If you throw a 7 or an 11 on the first roll it is an automatic win, called a Natural. If you throw craps 2, 3 or 12 it is an automatic loss. However if you throw anything else besides 7, 11 or craps then you make a Point. The dealer will mark the point number by placing a puck with its white face up on top of it. This means you are now betting for the number you just rolled (The Pass) to come up again before a 7 is rolled. If it does, you win.

Pass Line Odds

After the point has been established, you can increase your line bet by taking odds. This means you are now betting additional money that the number you just rolled (The Point) will come up again before a 7 is rolled. If it does, you win. This bet is placed directly behind the original line bet. Each point pays different odds. Unlike the original pass line bet, an unresolved pass line odds bet may be removed.

	Point Rolled	Payout
	4 and 10	2:1
	5 and 9	3:2
	6 and 8	6:5

Don't Pass Bar

You are betting the opposite of Pass Line. If you throw a 7 or an 11 on the first roll it's an automatic loss, and you win if the dice sum 3 or 12. A 2 is called a Stand Off or Tie and you neither win nor lose*. However if you roll anything else besides 7, 11 or "Craps" then you make a "Point". If this happens, then it's the exact opposite of Pass Line. This means you are now betting to win that you will throw a 7 before the number you just rolled (The "Point")..
*Depending on house rules, some casinos use the 12 as the stand off or Tie number.

Don't Pass Bar Odds

After the point has been established you can increase your line bet by taking odds. Which means you are now betting additional money that you will throw a 7 before the number you just rolled (The "Point") comes up. A don't pass line odds bet is placed on the right side of your original bet in the Don't Pass Bar. A winning Don't Pass Line odds bet pays true odds. An unresolved don't pass line odds bet may be removed.

	Point Rolled	Payout
	4 and 10	1:2
	5 and 9	2:3
	6 and 8	5:6

Come

It is an even money bet (pays 1:1). The only real difference between the Pass Line and the Come Bet is that you make a come bet after the point has been determined on the pass line. After you make a come bet, the first roll of the dice will establish the come point. If a 7 or 11 rolls, you are an automatic winner. But if you roll 2, 3, or 12 on the first roll you lose.

Come Odds

Once the come point has been established, you can increase your line bet by taking odds. This means that you are now betting to win that the number you just rolled will Come up again before a 7 is rolled. A come odds bet is placed directly under your come bet within the box that corresponds to the come point: 4, 5, Six, 8, Nine, or 10. A winning Come odds bet pays true odds. Unlike the original come bet, an unresolved come odds bet may be removed.

	Point Rolled	Payout
	4 and 10	2:1
	5 and 9	3:2
	6 and 8	6:5

Don't Come

Don't Come bets are basically the same as the Don't Pass Bar bets, but are made after you make a wager on a Don't Pass Bar, and a Point is rolled. You can then back up your bet by laying (betting against the shooter) the odds on the Point.

Don't Come Odds

You are now betting additional money that you will roll a 7 before the "Point" number. If it does, you win. An odds bet is placed in the tiny space directly under your Don't Come bet within the narrow, uppermost bar over the box that corresponds to the come point: 4, 5, Six, 8, Nine, or 10. A winning Don't Come odds bet pays true odds. An unresolved don't come odds bet may be removed.

	Point Rolled	Payout
	4 and 10	1:2
	5 and 9	2:3
	6 and 8	5:6

Place Bets

Place bets are made on the numbers 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10 and have nothing to do with the Point number. Place bets are turned off when they have an OFF marker on top. If a 7 is rolled before your Place number you lose. If your Place number is rolled before a 7 you win.

	Point Rolled	Payout
	4 or 10	9:5
	5 or 9	7:5
	6 or 8	7:6

A Place Lose Bet

A Place Lose bet is a bet that 7 will be rolled before either 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10. A place lose bet is placed in the narrow, unlabeled bar located just above the box with the corresponding number on the craps table: 4, 5, Six, 8, Nine, or 10. Winning Place Lose bets are paid according to these default ratios:

	Point Rolled	Payout
	4 and 10	5:11
	5 and 9	5:8
	6 and 8	4:5

Buy Bets

Buy bets are made on the numbers 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10 similar to Place bets but with different (true) odds. Again you are betting that the shooter will roll your number before he/she rolls a 7. A Buy bet is determined in the following manner.

If a 7 is rolled before your Buy number you lose. If your Buy number is rolled before a 7 you win. On Buy bets the casino charges a five percent service charge on the value of your bet in multiples of $1 (a $10 bet will cost you $11).

	Point Rolled	Payout
	4 or 10	2:1
	5 or 9	3:2
	6 or 8	6:5

Because of these payouts you must pay attention to wager the correct amounts in order to receive the correct payout. The casino rounds down on uneven payouts.

Lay Bets

Lay bets are the opposite of Buy bets. You are betting the shooter will roll a 7 before your Lay number of 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10. If your Lay number is rolled before a 7 you lose. If a 7 is rolled before your Lay number you win.

	Point Rolled	Payout
	4 or 10	1:2
	5 or 9	2:3
	6 or 8	7:6

Because of the nature of these payouts you need to pay special attention to wager the correct amounts in order to receive the correct payout. The casino rounds down on uneven payouts. Same as with Buy bets the casino charges a five percent service charge. However, now the charge is based on your potential winnings in multiples of $1 (a $40 bet on the 4 would pay $20, 5% of $20 is $1, so it will cost you $41).

Big Six or Big Eight

Big Six or Big Eight bets pay even money if you win. If a 7 is rolled before a 6 or an 8 you lose. If a 6 or an 8 is rolled before a 7 you win.

Hard Four Bets or Hard Ten

Hard Four or Hard Ten bets are two different bets, but are won in a similar manner and are paid out in the same manner. Hard Four can be rolled only one way (2, 2), and Hard Ten only rolled one way (5, 5). You are betting that the shooter will roll a Hard Four or a Hard Ten (whichever you have chosen) before seven, and before any other combination of four or ten. They both pay 7:1.

Hard Six or Hard Eight

Hard Six or Hard Eight bets are two different bets, but are won in a similar manner and the payout is the same. Hard Six can be rolled only one way (3, 3), and Hard Eight only rolled one way (4, 4). You are betting that the shooter will roll a Hard Six or a Hard Eight (whichever you placed your bet on) before a seven, and before any other combination of six or eight. They both pay 9:1.

Proposition Bets

Proposition bets are one time bets that are won or lost depending on the outcome of the next roll of the dice, once the bets are placed on the table.

Field Bets

Field Bets are popular because seven possible outcomes will win (2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11 or 12), while only four (5, 6, 7 or 8) will lose. This bet usually pays even money but depending on the house rules sometimes a casino will pay 2:1 or 3:1 when a 2 or a 12 is rolled.

Any Seven

Any Seven bets are made when you bet that the next roll will be a 7. The payout is 4:1.

Any Craps

Any Craps bets are made when you bet that the next roll's outcome will be a 2, 3 or 12. The payout is 7:1.

Horn Two

Horn Two bets are a one time roll bet that the shooter will roll a 2. The payout is 30:1.

Horn Twelve

Horn Twelve bets are a one time roll bet that the shooter will roll a 12. The payout is 30:1

Horn Three

Horn Three bets are a one time roll bet that the shooter will roll a 3. The payout is 15:1.

Horn Eleven

Horn Eleven bets also known as Yo-Eleven. Here you bet that the dice will come out with a 11 on the shooter's next roll. The payout is 15:1.

Min. Bet: $1, Max. Bet: $50

Let it Ride Poker

The object of the game is to get at least a "pair of 10s or better" from a combination of your three cards and two community cards, while keeping all three regular bets in action. The player does not actually play against the dealer or another player but rather against the odds in order to get the best five card poker hand possible.

 

 

 

How to Play

Let It Ride Poker uses the standard ranking of Poker hands ranging from a Royal Flush down to a Pair of 10s. You must have at least a Pair of 10s or better to win. The higher your hand is ranked, the more you will win.

Playing the Game

Initially you must place three identical bets. Each bet must be at least table minimum. You will have the opportunity to withdraw two of the three bets as the hand progresses. Your hand consists of five cards: three dealt to you and two community cards placed in front of the dealer.

Once you view your first three cards you may not like your chances of getting a winning combination, so you may remove your first bet if this is the case. If you feel that you will get a winning poker hand, or if you already have a pair of 10s or better, you can Let it Ride. After deciding to withdraw or Let It Ride, the first community card is dealt.

Taking all four cards into consideration, you must now decide what to do with your second bet: withdraw or Let It Ride. Your third and final bet cannot be withdrawn therefore; you must Let It Ride. The dealer now deals the fifth and final card. At this point the five cards will decide if you have a winning poker hand or not. Winning bets are paid out according to the payout schedule on the bottom right hand of the table.

Deal

You may begin by pressing the Deal button once a bet is placed on the table. You are dealt three cards face up and two community cards face down. Your final hand in combination with the two community cards determines if you have a winning hand.

Take Down

Press Take Down to withdraw your first or second bet. If after viewing your first three cards you don't like your chances of getting a winning hand, you may Take Down your first bet. Once the first community card is revealed to you may take down if you consider the odds unfavorable. A Take Down can be done on the first and second bet only.

All In

Pressing All In on a play will automatically bet on the first and second bet. This is useful in scenarios in which you are sure of having a wining hand. For example you have a pair of Jacks on your first three cards; you already have a winner so All In is the way to go.

Let It Ride

Press Let It Ride to play your first or second bet. If after viewing your first three cards, you have or like your chances of getting a winning hand, you may keep the bet by clicking on Let It Ride. After the first community card is revealed you still consider your odds in favor, you can "Let It Ride" on your second bet as well.

How to Play

A 3-Card Poker game consists of two hands that are made with three cards, one that is the player's and the other the dealer's hand. 3 Card Poker has two ways to bet and win:

 

1) ANTE + PLAY: To win, you must have a higher hand than the dealer.

2) PAIR PLUS: To win, you must have at least a pair or higher hand. Flushes or better receive higher payouts than 1:1.

To begin play, place a wager on the ANTE, the PAIR PLUS, or both, depending on your betting strategy. The dealer and player are dealt three cards. Dealer must have a Queen or higher to qualify. If dealer qualifies, the highest hand wins the ANTE + PLAY bet. If player has a pair or higher, the PAIR PLUS wins regardless of the dealer's hand.

Ante and Play

To PLAY your hand, a wager equal to the ANTE is required. You are wagering that your hand beats the dealer's or that the dealer will not qualify. If your hand is higher than the dealer's qualifying hand, you win both ANTE and PLAY bets, otherwise you lose both. If the dealer does not qualify, you win the ANTE bet and the PLAY pushes. If you fold, all wagers including PAIR PLUS are forfeited.

Pair Plus

If you bet on PAIR PLUS, you are wagering that you'll receive at least a pair or something higher in your hand. Any hand that is a pair or higher pays according to the Payouts Chart regardless of what the dealer's hand has. If only Pair Plus is played then the dealer hand is not played as there is no RAISE or FOLD. There is no skill requirement to this bet as it only consists on the outcome of the three cards.

Anything less than a pair does not win. If you ANTE and do not PLAY, this wager is forfeited.

Ante Bet Bonus

If you hit PLAY with a straight or higher (straight, 3 of a kind, or straight flush), the ANTE receives a bonus in accordance to the Payouts Chart, no matter of the outcome of the dealer's hand. If you place your mouse over the Payouts Chart you will get complete details on the payout scenarios for this game

Deal

Press Deal once a bet is placed and you are ready to begin the game. You are dealt three cards face up. To win, you must out-rank the dealer's hand.

Play

Press Play if you think your hand is high enough to beat the dealer's hand or if you have a Pair Plus; which will automatically place a wager equal to your ANTE wager, play your hand against the dealer's, and (or) play your Pair Plus bet.

Fold

If after viewing your three cards, you don't like your chances of "out ranking" the dealer or don't have a Pair Plus, you can "Fold" your cards and not risk losing a PLAY wager.

Re-Bet

Press Re-Bet to repeat your previous wager (same bet amount) and automatically deal your next hand.

Clear

The Clear Button resets the coins being wagered to 0.

Hand Rankings in 3 Card Poker

Hand rankings are different winning combinations in 3 Card Poker. The ranking of the hands in 3 Card Poker differs from traditional poker hands. In 3 Card Poker, a STRAIGHT beats a FLUSH. Cards are ranked from highest to lowest in the following order:

1. STRAIGHT
2. FLUSH
3. THREE OF A KIND
4. PAIR
5. High Card

Straight Flush

A Straight Flush consists of three cards in order and of the same suit; (note that an ace can usually be counted as the lowest card in the order) for example: A, K, Q, - Highest A, 2, 3, - 2nd Highest 2, 3, 4, - Lowest

Three of a Kind

Three cards of same rank For example: A, A, A, - Highest 2, 2, 2, - Lowest

Straight

A straight consists of three cards in order, but not of the same suit. For example: A, K, Q, - Highest A, 2, 3, - 2nd Highest 2, 3, 4, - Lowest

Flush

If all three cards in a hand belong to the same suit, you have a Flush.

Pair

Two cards of same rank For example: A, A, - Highest 2, 2, - Lowest

High Card

If neither dealer nor player has a pair or better, the highest card wins. If equal, the next highest cards are matched. If all three cards are equal then player wins.

Description and Objective

Double Zero Roulette
Min. Bet: $1, Max. Bet: $100

Roulette is the perfect example of a game of chance with one objective: Guessing which number will be the next to come up. The Roulette Table consists of a spinning wheel with numbered slots, a small white ball and a betting layout that allows bets to be placed on one or more numbers at a time. There are also side bets in the table. The wheel is spun in one direction and the ball is propelled around the outer edge of the wheel in the opposite direction. Eventually, the ball will decrease in speed and fall toward the spinning wheel where it will bounce around for a while until it lands in one of the numbered slots. If your bet or bets are a "hit", the casino pays a variety of odds based on the number of numbers covered by your bet.

How to Play

To play roulette, you place your bet or bets on numbers, rows, or corners of the inside of the table layout or on the outside (see inside outside bets), and click spin. You may select your chip denomination by clicking on the chip/amount of your choice.

Repeat Bet

The function of this button is to repeat the exact same layout of bet(s) as in the previous turn.

Clear Bet

This will clear any bets on the table should the player feel like removing the bets and placing new ones.

Inside Bets

Inside are bets that are placed on the numbers fields on the lines between numbers. A single inside bet can cover from one to six numbers.

Straight Bet o 35 to 1

Straight Bets cover one number only. Bets are placed directly on top of the desired number.

Split Bet o 17 to 1

A Split Bet covers two numbers by placing chips on the line between any two adjacent numbers.

Street Bet (Row) o 11 to 1

A Street Bet covers 3 numbers by placing chips at the head of a row. Other 3-Number bets can also be made at the intersection with zeros.

Square Bet o 8 to 1

A Square Bet covers 4 numbers by placing chips at the 4-corner intersection of 4 numbers. A 4-Number bet can also be made on a European table by playing the zero line.

5 Number Bet o 6 to 1 (actual 6.2 to 1)

The 5-Number Bet can be played on American tables by placing chips at the head of the line between the zeros and 1-3 Street.

Double Street Bet o 5 to 1

A Double Street Bet covers 6 numbers by placing chips at the head of the line between two rows.

Outside Bets

Outside Bets are complimentary bets that are placed on the table. These aren't bets on specific numbers but rather side bets. Here you can bet if the ball will land on a color, odd or even, first twelve numbers and so on.

Dozen Bet o 2 to 1

A Dozen Bet covers 12 numbers by placing chips on the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd dozen areas.

Column Bet o 2 to 1

A Column Bet covers 12 numbers by placing chips on the "2 to 1" areas at the far side of the layout.

Even Money Bet o 1 to 1

An Even Money Bet covers 18 numbers by placing chips on either the "1-18", "Even", Red, Black, "Odd", or "19-36" areas.

Strategy

Roulette is a game of chance. The outcome of a spin is not determined by prior spins. Each spin is an independent event of chance. For example, after seven successive blacks, the chance of getting a red on the next spin is still as likely as getting a black. You should not base you strategy on the false assumption that a particular outcome is 'due' to happen. Some people believe you can always break even at roulette by always betting even money, then doubling down after every loss and return to the lowest bet after a win. This is called the Martingale system. However, in practice this is not possible because every roulette table has a maximum imposed on the bet size.

After a couple of sequential losses it is no longer possible to double down, and you will lose. In fact never believe anyone who claims having invented a winning roulette system. As with all games of chance, whether you win or lose doesn't depend on the system you're using, but on luck and common sense. The outcome of a spin is not determined by prior spins. Good Luck!

You can split your hand however you like but you must follow one simple rule: your back hand must be ranked higher than your front hand. To win, your hands must rank higher than the house's front and back. If one of your hands wins and one loses, the hand is a push.
