Lucky Lightning

Lucky Lightning is a three-reel, one-pay line slot machine created by the software development team at Realtime Gaming (RTG). The theme of the game is one of mother natures more beautiful looking creations – lightning. Those who enjoy betfair live casino might want to give this a go.

The game is available to be played online in limited number of online casinos where it can be played for free or for real money. The free version of the game is a great idea because it enables the player to experience the game without having any of their bankroll at risk. When you are ready to spend a few quid there are a few options to choose from. You have cash denominations ranging between $0.05 and $5 and up to a maximum of three coins.

The game screen looks like a brick and mortar slot machine with two distinctly different sections. The top section contains the pay table and the bottom section contains the three-reels and buttons. The prizes on offer range from as low as one credit (for hitting three blank symbols) or the jackpot of 2,500 credits (for hitting three lucky number seven symbols on an active pay line whilst playing for maximum coins). The symbols on the reels include the lucky number seven, and a wide variety of items from the fruit bowl. You also have the timeless classics that are the bar symbols although these ones have lightning bolts emblazoned on the front of them. A bit of concentration is required for this game, much like betfair live roulette.

Although Lucky Lightning is great to look at, it does lack a little bit of depth when it comes to its game play with the lack of wild and scatter symbols.

Jingle Bells

Jingle Bells is a three-reel, five-pay line slot machine created by the software development team at Microgaming. The theme of the game is Christmas, and if you are reading this in the summer, just remember that we all wish it were Christmas every day! Take a break from the betfair live baccarat to try this game out.

The game is available to be played online in a wide number of online casinos and it can be played for free or for real money. The free version of the game is a great idea because it enables the player to experience the game without having any of their bankroll at risk. When you are ready to jingle those coins, there are a number of options available to you, with cash denominations ranging between $0.25 and $5 per spin and up to a maximum of five coins.

The game screen looks like your classic three-reel slot machine. The game is set against a mistletoe green backdrop with the reels in the top left hand corner, game logo bottom left and the pay table on the right. The prizes on offer range from as low as one credit (for hitting a holly symbol) or the jackpot of 6,000 credits (for hitting any three red lucky number seven symbols on an active pay line whilst playing for maximum coins). The symbols on the reels include the lucky number seven, holly and one, two and three bar symbols. It works in a similar fashion to zero casino games.

Jingle Bells also has a wild multiplier symbol and the Jingle Bells symbol represents it. This symbol substitutes for all other symbols when creating winning combinations.

Keno

Keno is a numbers casino game where you have the option of picking up to 10 balls out of a possible 80. It is a very exciting game, rivalling the likes of Bejeweled 2 slots.

After your game card is selected, 20 numbers will be drawn and if you choose 10 numbers you will be looking to find at least five of your numbers to gain a cash prize.

If you are lucky enough to draw all 10 of your numbers you will be rewarded with a payout prize of 10000x the stake you chose. For matching five of your numbers you will receive 5x your stake and for each extra number from there in, the prizes accumulate to high amounts.

The minimum amount of numbers you can play is two. If you draw one of your two numbers you will receive your stake as a return but all two numbers will gain you x9 as a payout.

To help speed up the game, you can choose to keep the same numbers for five consecutive draws and they will be drawn back-to-back. The payouts from each game will be listed on the right side of the page to help you keep track of your winnings and what you achieved in each individual game.

As you select a different amount of numbers, the payout value will change so it is worth studying each payout and deciding on which amount you would like to play. For the top prize of x10000 you do need to select 10 numbers and match them all. It is very tactical, much like playing deal or no deal.

The maximum stake you can play in this game is £5 but it you prefer to play with something more minimal, you can go as low as £0.10. Don’t forget that if you play five games consecutively, you will need to place five times your stake.

So You’re About to Enter Your First Blackjack Tournament? Best You Know the Lingo Spoken at the Table

My good friend Howard likes to think he’s mastered all there is the know (at an amateur level) about blackjack.

He’s memorized the charts (like I have, incidentally).

Knows the odds.

And is a somewhat successful card counter.

When I accompany him to Vegas, he generally wins playing blackjack, although never huge amounts.

So he is going to enter a few tournaments now, he recently told me.

Fine, I said. Do you know the Lingo?

Lingo?

OK then, for all the Howards of the world, what follows is a pretty good rundown of lingo spoken during tournaments by senior players.

Taking the high road – Making a sizable enough bet that if all players win the hand that the amount bet will place you in the chip lead.

Taking the low road – The opposite approach. When you suspect that the dealer’s hand will beat the rest of the table you may elect to make a minimal bet that will leave yhou with the most remaining chips.

Free Hit – When a player has a bad hand and taking another card cannot do further damage to the hand but can potentially save it. It does not cost the player any more than standing. A hard 17 is a good example of when a free hit may be a good next move.

Catch up bets (betting the gap) – When a player falls behind the leader Read more
