The Games
In BLACKJACK, you play against the dealer. The objective in blackjack is to have a hand which totals 21, or beats the dealer's hand by coming as close to 21 as possible without going over, or "bust."
CRAPS is a game of chance, and is played on a large sunken table with a pair of dice that are thrown by the Shooter. The main objective is to bet whether the Shooter will roll a winning combination.
ROULETTE is played by spinning a small ball around a wheel that contains 38 numbered slots. You have to predict which numbered slot on the Roulette wheel the ball will land on. By predicting the right number, you earn a payoff on your bet.
TEXAS HOLD 'EM is a community poker game where multiple players compete. Every player is dealt two cards face down, and then five community cards are dealt in the middle of the table. The five community cards may be used to construct a poker hand by every player.
7 CARD STUD is played with two to five players. Every player is dealt a total of seven cards, three of them face down, and the other four face up.
BACCARAT is a game where cards are dealt to two hands, named Player and Banker. You have to correctly pick which hand will have a score closest to 9.
KENO is a game where the objective is to guess which numbers, from 1 to 80, will be randomly selected. You can choose up to 10 numbers in order to match as many numbers as possible to those selected by the machine.
CHUCK A LUCK is a dice game where you have to predict the outcome of three dice in a cage thrown by a Shooter.
In VIDEO POKER your earnings (pay off ratio) are based on poker hands you form from the 5 cards dealt to you by the computer. There are 3 types of video poker in this game including Jacks or Better, Double Bonus, and Deuces Wild.

Blackjack
When the dealer's up card is an Ace, all Players have an opportunity to buy "insurance." You may purchase insurance at the price of half your initial bet. If the dealer has Blackjack, you only lose the amount you paid for insurance.
Once the cards are dealt, you have the option to HIT or STAND. If you choose to HIT, you will receive an additional card. If you choose to STAND, you will take no additional cards. If the value of your cards goes over 21 ("BUST"), you will lose at that point.
Once the cards are dealt, you have other options besides HIT and STAND. These choices are listed below.
DOUBLE DOWN; When you get your first two cards and you believe that you can beat the dealer with only one more card, you can choose to DOUBLE DOWN. Your wager is doubled, and you are allowed to hit and receive just one additional card.
SPLIT; If your two cards are of the same value (i.e. 7, 7, or Q, K) you may SPLIT them into 2 separate hands, placing a second wager of equal value. You then proceed to draw cards as usual.
SURRENDER will allow you to leave a game and get one-half of your wagers back.
The dealer continues to draw cards until his total is greater than 16. You win if the dealer goes over 21.
Your initial bet is then settled by comparing your cards with the dealer's. If the total of your cards is the same as the dealer's without going over 21, the game ends in a tie.
If you win, you will be paid even money. If you tie with the dealer it’s a PUSH and your wager is returned.

Blackjack
In Blackjack, you play against the dealer. The objective in blackjack is to have a hand which totals 21, or beats the dealer's hand by coming as close to 21 as possible without going over, or “bust.”
Kings, Queens, Jacks, and 10's each count as
10. Aces count as 1 or 11, which the player decides.
Place your bet in the center of the betting circle in front of the seat on the table.
Pressing the "DEAL" button will have the dealer deal two cards face up to each Player, and two to himself, one face up and one face down.
If your first two cards are an Ace and a 10 value card, you have Blackjack and will win, unless the Dealer also has Blackjack. If you have Blackjack, you will be paid one and one-half times the wager (3 to 2)
