- FairLight Dox Division - presents Four Queens: Computer Casino BACCARAT: The game of Baccarat is one of Europe's oldest and most popular card games. In the United States, it has become known as a game for high rollers. This is partly sue to the fact that it is very easy tp play and the expected outcome is very even. The game is played with eight decks of cards, being dealt from a shoe. Two hands of two cards each are dealt. The first and third cards go to the player, and the second and fourth card go to the dealer. The object of the game is to obtain a point total as close to 9 as possible. Aces count for one point, 2's through 9's count their face value, and tens and face cards have no value. If the combined value of the cards exceeds nine, only the last digit of the combined total is used. Therefore, a hand composed of: Queen, 8 = 8 4, Ace, Jack = 5 8,9 = 7 After the hand is dealt, the dealer announces the score of both hands. If either equals 8 or 9, it is called "natural" and no additional cards are drawn by either player. The drawing of cards is set by fixed rules. PLAYER: When first two cards total 0,1,2,3,4,5 Draw 6,7 Stands 8,9 Stands (Natural) BANKER: When the player stands on 6 or 7, the banker will draw on totals of 0,1,2,3,4,5, and stand on totals of 6,7,8,9. When the player does not have a natural, the banker shall always draw on the totals of 0,1,2 and then use the following rules. Banker Has Draw if player's 3rd card= Stand if 3rd card= 3 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 8 4 2,3,4,5,6,7 0,1,8,9 5 4,5,6,7 0,1,2,3,8,9 6 6,7 0,1,2,3,4,5,8,9 7 Stand 8-9 Stand(natural) The hand closest to 9 is the winning hand, and is paid even money (one-to-one). On winning bank wagers a 5% commission (vigorish) is charged. When both players' hands have the same value, the hand is declared a tie. Neither player wins or loses. When this occurs, the tie bet wins and pays 8 to 1. BLACKJACK: Blackjack is by far the most popular table game in the casino. One of the reasons for this is that it is a simple contest between you and the dealer. The hand begins with the dealer giving each player, including himself, two cards. One of the dealer's cards is face up. The deck being used may be comprised of 1,2,4,6 or 8 standard decks of cards. Cards 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 count face value. Face cards count 10. Aces can either count as one or eleven, whichever is to the player's advantage. The value of an ace may change during the course of a hand. The object of the game is to get closer to 21 than the dealer w/out going over. Play rotates around the table, with each player taking as many cards as they require. Additional cards are drawn by raking your cards on the table. Upon doing this, the dealer will give you a card, face up on the table. If you still need an additional card, repeat the process. If you're satisfied with your hand, tuck the corner of your cards under your wager and play will proceed to the next player. Should your score go over 21, you "bust". If this occurs, turn your hand over and the dealer will remove your cards and wager from the table. If your first two cards are an Ace and a face card, you have Blackjack and will be paid one and a half times your bet, unless the dealer also has Blackjack. When all players are satisfied with their hands, the dealer turns over his second card. If his hand is under 17 or a soft 17 (Ace and 6), he must draw cards until he totals or exceeds 17. If you end up with the same point value as the dealer, you push and nobody wins. DOUBLING DOWN - If your first two cards are such that you feel taking only one more card will give you a good chance to beat the dealer, you can turn your cards face up, and double you bet. Remember, you will receive only one additional card. SPLITTING - If your first two cards are a pair, you can play them as two hands by turning them face up and matching your original bet. You can draw as many cards as you like for each hand. However, when splitting Aces, you only receive one card on each and drawing a face card merely counts as 21, not Blackjack, so you are only paid even money if you win. INSURANCE - When the dealer's face-up card is an Ace, he will offer "insurance." If you accept, you can bet up to half your original bet. If the dealer has Blackjack, you lose your original bet (unless you also have BJ), but you win the insurance bet and get paid 2 to 1. If the dealer does not have blackjack, you lose your insurance bet and the hand proceeds as usual. CRAPS: Craps (dice) is a fast action game that offers a wide variety of bets and an ample supply of excitement. Pass Line - You win even money on 7 or 11 and lose on 2,3, or 12 on the first roll, known as the "come out" roll. Any other number becomes "the point". If the point comes up again before a 7 is rolled, you win even money. Once a Pass Line bet is made, the bet can't be picked up until a win or lose decision is reached. Don't Pass Line - This is the opposite of the Pass Line. You win on 2 or 3 and lose on 7 or 11. If 12 comes up, it is a tie and no one wins. Any other number that comes up is the points. You win if 7 is rolled before the point comes up again. The bet is for even money. Unlike the Pass Line bet, you bet may be removed at any time. Come - Can be placed anytime after the first roll. The payoff is even-money and the same rules apply as in Don't Pass Line. Don't Come - You can place Don't Come anytime after the first roll. The payoff is even money and the same rules apply as in Don't Pass Line. Field - This is a one-roll bet that can be placed anytime. If a 3,4,9,10,11 is rolled, you win even money. If a 2 is rolled you are paid 2 to 1 on your bet. If a 12 is rolled you are paid 3 to 1. Any 7 - A one-roll bet that can be made at any time. If 7 comes up on that roll you are paid 5 for 1. Any Craps - A one-roll bet that can be made at any time. You win on 2,3, or 12 and are paid 8 for 1. Hard Ways - There are four Hard Ways bets; Hard Four (two 2's), hard Six (two 3's), Hard Eight (two 4's), Hard ten (two 5's). For example, if you bet on a Hard wight, you win if a pair of 4's come up before 7 or an easy eight (2 and 6, 3 and 5). Horn Bet - A one-roll bet that can be made at anytime. You are betting on a combination of 2,3,11 and 12. If any of these numbers come up, the payoff is determined as though it was a separate bet on that individual number. Betting is required to be done in increments of $4.00. Buy Bets - You can place bets on 4,5,6,8,9,10 and get actual odds in exchange for a 5% charge on the bet amount. You win when the number is rolled prior to a 7 being rolled. Lay Bets - These are essentially the opposite of Buy Bets and the 5% charge is on the amount you could win - not on the amount of you bet. Place Bets - These are bets on 4,5,6,8,9,10. You win when your number is rolled before a 7. ROULETTE Roulette is one of the easiest games to learn, yet it is on of the most exciting due to the many difference types of bets available. Each player has their own distinct color of chips, and their value is determined at "buy-in". Players place various types of bets until the dealer announces "no more bets". At that time, the dealer spins the ball in the opposite direction of the wheel. After the ball comes to rest in one of the numbered compartments, the winning number is marked, the losing bets are removed from the table and the winning bets are paid off. There are 38 numbers on the wheel, 1 thru 36 and 0 and 00. A chip can be played in any of 14 ways. Bet Odds A) Straight 35-1 B) 2 #'s (split) 17-1 C) 3 #'s (Street) 11-1 D) 4 #'s (Corner) 8-1 E) 5 #'s 6-1 F) 6 #'s 5-1 G) Column 2-1 Bet Odds H) Dozen 2-1 I) Red 1-1 J) Black 1-1 K) Odd 1-1 L) Even 1-1 M) 1 to 18 1-1 N) 19 to 36 1-1 REDDOG: Reddog is a variation of a game more commonly referred to as in- between. It is played at a special table that look much like a blackjack table. Players place their wagers. The dealer deals two cards and determines how many cards are between the two of them. For Example: 5 and Jack = 5 (6,7,8,9,10) 7 and 8 = 0 After this number is determined, it is marked on the table using a marker in the form of a red dog. From this point, three different things can occur... 1> If the range is 0, but the cards are not a pair (e.g. 7 and 8), a box labeled Consecutive is marked, bets are left to ride, and the hand is over. 2> If the range is 0, and the cards are a pair, a box labeled Pair is marked, and a third card is drawn. If the third card matches the first two, the players win, and are played 11 to 1. If the third card does not match, the money is left on the table, and the hand is ended. 3> If there are cards that can fall between the two cards, the range is marked on the scale on the table. Associated with each range size is a payback multiplier. For example, if the cards are 5 and 7, the range is 1 and the payoff multiplier is 4 to 1. At this time, each player is given the opportunity to double their bet if they so desire. After each person makes their decision, the third card is displayed and appropriate payoffs are made. SUPERPAN 9: Superpan 9 is essentially a derivative of Baccarat. It is played on a table that looks essentially like blackjack table. In Baccarat, you bet on the player, bank, or a tie. Each player gets two cards and the decision to get a third card is based on a fixed set of rules. In Superpan 9, the objective is still to get the closer to 9 and the points are scored the same way. However, each player is given three cards on the initial deal. The players are then given the opportunity to draw another card but the decision is strictly their own. After each player draws or passes on the right to draw the extra card, the dealer displays his hand and draws another card if his present score is less than 6, otherwise he stands.
