Live Blackjack

Playing Blackjack live is the ultimate experience anyone who is a fan of this game would have. We will go over the rules of the game one more time, in case you are a beginner. Blackjack is a simple game, but still, you need to know the rules before playing because they will help you improve your chances of winning. These are the classic rules that apply to almost every variation of Blackjack that exists.

The idea of Blackjack is to have a hand with a higher card count than the dealer without going over 21. When you play the game, you compete only against the dealer and not with the other players.

• Blackjack is played with up to 8 decks.
• The dealer always stands on 17.
• Double Down on any 2 initial cards.
• Split initial cards of equal value.
• Only one Split per hand.
• Single card to each Split Ace.
• No Double Down after Split.
• Insurance offered when the dealer shows an Ace.
• Blackjack pays 3 to 2.
• Insurance pays 2 to 1.
• Push game when hands tie.

The game is hosted by a professional dealer and up to 7 players can sit at the virtual table. The card values are as follows:

• Cards from 2 to 10 are worth their face value.
• Face cards (Jacks, Queens and Kings) are each worth 10.
• Aces are worth 1 or 11, whichever is more favorable to the hand.

The game starts with you and all the other players placing a bet, and after the betting, when the time has expired the dealer deals one card face up to each player. Then, the dealer deals a second card face-up to each player and face-down to himself. If you receive cards with a total value of 21, you have a Blackjack and you win the hand. If not, based on your cards and the dealer’s face-up card, you need to decide what your next move would be.

When the dealer's up card is an Ace, you are given an option to purchase insurance and the amount of the insurance is equal to half of your initial bet.

If the dealer doesn't have a blackjack the game continues, and you have a chance to improve your hand. If you decide to Double Down, that means you will have to double your bet and you will receive only one additional card. If you decide to Hit, you will receive another card hoping that it will improve the value of your hand. You can hit as many times as you need to. When you Stand, that means you are satisfied with the hand you have and hope that it is better than the dealer.

When you receive 2 cards with the same value, you can split your hand and play it as two separate hands. Again, you can hit and try to improve the value of your hand before you stand.

You can place side bets on Blackjack too, including Perfect Pairs and 21+3. There are three different types of pairs, each with a different payout:

• Perfect Pair is when you have the same suit cards, e.g. two Aces of Spades.
• Coloured Pair is when you have different suits of the same color, e.g. 2 of Diamonds + 2 of Hearts.
• Mixed Pair is when you have different suits, e.g. 10 of Hearts + 10 of Clubs.

21+3 is a side bet that will allow you to win if your two cards and the dealer's up-card make any of the following combinations:

• Suited Trips are when you have an identical triplet, e.g. 3 Queens of Spades.
• Straight Flush is when you have cards in numerical sequence and the same suit, e.g. 10, Jack and Queen of Spades.
• Three of a Kind is when you have cards with the same value but different suits, e.g. any 3 unmatching Kings.
• Straight is when you have cards in numerical sequence but different suits, e.g. 2 of Spades + 3 of Spades + 4 of Clubs.
• Flush is when you have cards with the same suit, e.g. 2, 6, and 10 of Hearts.

Another feature that Blackjack allows its players is the bet behind. You can bet on a hand that is dealt with another player, and if the player wins, you will share the outcome. You can place this bet if you are seated at the table or not, but you can't use the Bet Behind feature on your hand.

Live Roulette

When you play roulette you have to predict on which number the ball will land. A standard roulette wheel is divided into 37 pockets with numbers starting at 0 through 36. 18 of those numbers are black and 18 are red, and the zero is green.

There are different types of bets you can place when you play roulette. We want to point out that it is very important to learn the types of bets before playing the game. It is okay to place a few bets and hope to win, but knowing what you are doing will come handy especially with a game like roulette is. You have to know which bets are good for beginners, meaning bets that pay slightly less but offer a better chance of winning. And once you feel confident enough and want to test your luck you can start placing more daring bets. These bets offer huge payouts, but the chances of guessing these bets right are way smaller.

All the bets are divided into two major groups, inside and outside bets. Inside bets are placed within the grid area of the layout and include the following bets:

• Straight-up bets are made on a single number, and the payout for this bet is the highest, 35 to 1.
• Split Bets are made on two numbers adjacent to each other. The payout for this bet is 17 to1.
• Street Bets are made on three numbers in a row. The payout for this bet is 11 to 1.
• Square Bets are made on four numbers that meet at a single corner. The payout for this bet is 8 to 1.
• Six Line Bets are made, as its name suggests, on six numbers that form two adjacent rows. The payout for this bet is 5 to 1.
• Trio Bets are made on three numbers including the Zero. The payout for this bet is 11 to 1.
• Basket Bets are made on Zero, and the numbers 1, 2, and 3. The payout for this bet is 8 to1. Outside Bets are bets placed within the boxes next to the number grid area and they are the following:
• Red/Black bets are made on either the eighteen black or eighteen red numbers. The payout for this bet is 1 to 1.
• Low/High Bets are made on either low numbers, from 1 through 18, o high numbers, from 19 through 36. The payout for this bet is 1 to 1.
• Even/Odd Bets are made on either even or odd numbers. The payout for this bet is 1 to 1.
• A dozen bets are made on either the first, second, or third dozen numbers. The payout for this bet is 2 to 1.
• Column Bets are made on one of the three vertical columns of numbers. The payout for this bet is 2 to 1.

Live Baccarat

Playing Live Baccarat is very easy. You need to get acquainted with the rules before you decide to play for real money. The good thing is you can play the game in demo mode to practice before you decide to play for real money. Keep in mind that you can't play Live Baccarat for free, that is only allowed on the online game.

The game is hosted by a friendly dealer who will deal the cards and make the experience realistic. The cards values in Baccarat are the following:

• Aces are the lowest cards and are worth 1 point each.
• Cards from 2 to 9 are worth their numerical face values.
• 10s and face cards (jacks, queens, and kings) are each worth 0.

Before the game starts, you need to place your bet on the player or the banker. The objective of the game is to have a hand with a value closer to 9. And when you play Baccarat you don't have to bet on your hand, instead, you can bet that the banker's hand will win.

The dealer deals two cards each to the player and the banker. If both the hands have an equal value the round ends in a tie.

You can also place Side Bets in Baccarat, and they are as follows:

• Player Pair – You will receive a payout if the first two cards you receive are a pair.
• Banker Pair – You will receive a payout if the first two cards the banker receives are a pair.
• Perfect Pair – If two identical cards in terms of value and suit are dealt with either player or the banker, will pay 25 to 1. If two identical cards in terms of value and suit are dealt as the first two cards to both the player and the banker will pay 200 to 1.
