Roulette
Roulette is one of the oldest and most famous casino
games around. Our roulette wheel has 37 separately
numbered slots alternately coloured red and black,
with the '0' coloured green. The objective is to predict
which number the ball will stop on once it has been
released into the spinning wheel by the dealer.
To
place a bet, select your chip value from the 'BANK'
window and then click directly on the area of the
table on which you wish to place your bet. Multiple
clicks will increase the number of chips you bet.
To remove a chip, click the 'Clear last' button. Alternatively,
click 'Cancel' to remove all chips from the table.
All bets must be placed before the timer shown in
the 'BANK' window runs out.
The
dealer will spin the wheel and release the ball. Once
the ball has come to rest the dealer will announce
the winning number and all bets will be settled automatically.
The timer will then begin counting down to the start
of the next game.
You
can make a number of different bets in roulette. These
are split into inside bets which are bets placed on
the numbered section of the table, and outside bets
which are placed on the other areas.
Inside
bets
Straight-up bet
A bet on an individual number. The simplest roulette
bet with the highest payout chance. This bet pays
at 35:1, plus the original stake.
Split
bet
A two-number bet which is placed on the line connecting
the two numbers– for example, covering 24 and
27. This type of bet pays 17:1 plus the original stake.
Corner
bet
A four-number bet, placed at the corner of four numbers
- for example, covering 8, 9, 11 and 12. This bet
pays 8:1 plus the original stake.
Street
bet
A three-number bet, placed at the end of a row of
numbers - for example, covering 13, 14 and 15. A street
bet pays 11:1 plus the original stake.
Line
bet
A six-number bet placed at the junction of two street
bets – for example, covering 31, 32, 33, 34,
35 and 36. Line bets pay 5:1 plus the original stake.
Special
bets
These are a number of multiple bets that are traditional
to the game. Each bet covers a different group of
numbers. These bets are available through the 'Special
bets' button. Payouts vary for these bets.
Outside
bets
Column bet
A 12-number bet, which covers all of the numbers in
the corresponding column. This bet pays at 2:1 plus
the stake.
Dozen
bet
Another 12-number bet. Players can choose the first
dozen (covering 1 to 12), the second dozen (covering
13 to 24) or the third dozen (covering 25 to 36).
Again, this bet pays 2:1 plus original stake.
Colour
bet
An 18-number bet, which covers all the red numbers
or all the black numbers. Colour bets pay at 1:1 plus
original stake.
Even/odd
bet
An 18-number bet in which the player chooses to bet
on any odd number or any even number. This bet pays
1:1 plus original stake.
High/low
bet
Another 18-number bet covering either 1 to 18 or 19
to 36. Again this bet pays 1:1 plus the original stake.
Please note that any even-money bets will be lost
if the ball lands on zero.
Game features
At the bottom of the roulette screen you'll find additional
options which you can use to enhance your gaming experience.
These include:
Chat: Launches the chat window so you to talk to the
dealers, or contact the supervisor if you need to
History: Displays the results of the recent spins
of the wheel
Blackjack
Blackjack is the most popular of all casino card games.
The aim of the game is to beat the dealer. You do
this by making a hand that has a value of closer to
21 than the dealer's hand. You can also win if the
dealer's hand goes over 21 (bust). Be careful though:
if your hand goes above 21 you automatically lose.
This
version of blackjack is played with eight decks of
cards, which you will see the dealer shuffle at regular
intervals.
Once
the game has loaded you need to choose your seat at
the table. Seats are numbered from one to seven. Sit
at the table by clicking on any available seat displaying
the 'SIT HERE' sign. If all the seats are taken you
can either return to the Lobby and try another table
or wait for a seat to become free.
To
place a bet, select your chip value from the 'BANK'
window and then click directly on the table to bet.
Important:
In order for your bets to be accepted you need to
click the 'Confirm' button in the 'BANK' window before
the timer runs out, otherwise your bets will be removed.
If a game is already in progress you will need to
wait for it to complete before you can play.
When
the game begins all players will be dealt two cards
face up. The dealer will also get two cards, although
one will be face down.
Card
value
The numbered cards are all worth their face value.
The face cards are all worth 10, and aces can be worth
either one or 11 depending on what will give you the
best hand. If the first two cards dealt to you total
21 (an ace and a 10) you have blackjack. Blackjack
wins pay 3:2 on the player's original stake. Other
wins pay at 1:1.
Each
player takes turns to act on his or her hand, starting
from the player at the right. When it is your turn
to act you will be presented with a number of options:
Stand:
you wish to take no further action on your hand.
Hit: you wish to take another card to try to improve
the value of your hand. This option can be used multiple
times.
Double: you wish to double the amount you have bet
on your hand and can receive one more card only.
Split: this option is only available if your first
two cards are of the same value. By choosing this
option you will double your bet and receive two more
cards, effectively giving you two hands to play. If
you split aces, you'll receive one more card per hand,
and can't hit for extra cards. 21 hit after splitting
is not blackjack as the cards are not the first two
dealt, and therefore only pays 1:1. You can’t
split hands more than once.
Once all players have acted the dealer will turn over
her face-down card. If her hand is worth 16 or less
she must deal another card. This continues until the
dealer's hand is valued at 17 or higher.
When
the dealer has a hand of between 17 and 21, she will
pay all players with a hand closer to 21 than her
own. If the player's hand is the same value as the
dealer's, the hand is a 'push' or a tie, and the player
keeps his stake. If the dealer's hand busts, all remaining
players will be paid.
Insurance
If the dealer's face-up card is an ace all players
are offered an insurance bet. This bet is half the
player's stake. If the dealer has blackjack this bet
will pay at 2:1. If the dealer does not have blackjack
the bet is lost and the hands are played as normal.
Game
features
If you wish to talk to the dealer or the supervisor
you can open the chat window by clicking the button
at the bottom of the screen. The window can be moved
or resized.
Baccarat
Baccarat is a game in which the player bet on whether
their hand or the house banker's hand will be closest
in value to nine, or if the hands will be tied. It
is played with eight decks of cards, which are shuffled
regularly by the dealer.
Card
values
Aces are worth one. Face cards and 10s are worth zero.
All other cards are worth their face value.
If
the cards in a hand total more than 10 points, simply
subtract 10 to obtain the baccarat point value of
the hand. For example, two 8s total 16, but counts
as six.
A
two-card total of nine is the best hand possible and
is called a 'natural'. The second-best hand is a natural
eight.
If
both the player and the banker are dealt identical
hands, the game ends in a tie.
To
place a bet, select the amount you want to wager in
the 'BANK' window and then click directly on the 'Player',
'Tie' or 'Banker' areas of the table. Once the timer
has run down the dealer will begin dealing the cards.
If there is a game in progress you will need to wait
until it has been completed before placing your bet.
When
the game begins, the dealer will deal two cards to
the player and two to the banker. If the value of
either hand is eight or nine (a natural) the hand
is complete and no further cards are dealt. Otherwise
cards are dealt according to the rules below.
The
player's hand
Depending on the point value of the first two cards,
the following actions will take place:
Point
value of first two cards
0 to 5 Draws a third card
6
to 7 No more cards
0
to 5 'Natural', no more cards
