Sensible Online Gaming Tips

What do you need to know to use Casino Bonus Offers?
You need to read the terms and instructions at the Casino site. Almost all Casino Bonuses have certain conditions attached to them. Usually you have to play some before cashing them out.


Which type of casino bonus is right for you?
If you are playing for the first time, you may want to go for the completely free casino bonus, no deposit required. This is great for getting your feet wet and learning about online Casinos.


Here is one such bonus:

Get your first $60 FREE - No Deposit!

You could also go to the section for just the game you like (choose from the menu above) pick the Casino most recommended or most appealing to you and go there to play for free. Almost all Casinos will let you try the games totally free, with no deposit required.

Or you might want to try a Casino that asks for very small deposits and offers you more than 100% match play casino coupons. This gives you more money to ride out a possible streak of bad luck.


Here is an offer like that:

$40 free with a purchase of $20! Can be claimed 5 times in 1st month of registration.


If you have played before, you may want to go to a casino that gives you a match bonus when you deposit a little more money. A 100% match Bonus on a $100 deposit makes it very much more likely that you will win. The size of your bankroll will be a nice cushion this way.


You can find such an offer here: A Get A 100% MATCH BONUS!!!!YOU CAN GET $200 FREE! CLICK HERE!
Here, like any place else, the more money you have the more money you make. The casinos listed under "Big Rollers" give you a percentage of your deposit as bonus. You can get some substantial sums of money if you make a deposit of $1000 or more. The larger your bankroll, the longer you can play, the more likely you are to win.


Here is such an offer:

50% Deposit Bonus up to $500 Free!


Of course it takes some self discipline. You need to stop when you are winning. I know, the games are so much fun to play that one just wants to keep playing. If you can afford it, you can of course play until you hit the big one.

Do not chase your losses. I know, you may think that odds are that you will do better momentarily when you are on a losing streak. Odds are you will do better, yes, but you don't know when. It is prudent to stop and come back later, or to just play another game.

Most online Casinos pay out between 95% and 98% of what they take in. That's pretty good odds if you ask me!


You can find current bonuses listed below, or for a more dynamic approach see them at Games and Casino!

* One pair

The hand with the higher pair wins. If the pairs are equal, then the unmatched cards are used to break the tie, first by comparing the highest unmatched cards, then the second highest unmatched cards, and finally the lowest unmatched cards.


* High card

If a hand does not fit in any other category, it is judged by high cards. Two hands are compared by taking the highest cards and comparing them. If those are equal, then the second highest are compared.

Playing in Poker Rooms

 

The following games are offered in the various Internet poker rooms:

 

Texas Hold'em

Texas Hold'em can be found all over the world. Each player receives two down cards and five community cards, these are face-up in the middle of the table). You want to pick the best five of those seven cards and the best hand wins the pot. The pot can also be won by someone betting if no one calls before getting seven cards.

Strategy:


Shorthand Limit Texas Hold'em

Starting hands

Flop

Bluffing

 

Limit Hold'em with eight or more players

The most important thing to remember is that in limit Fold'em you want to have an advantage going into the flop.


Starting Hands:

Wait to be dealt the quality hands, and just win with those.


AA, KK, QQ, JJ and AK

These are the very best hands. Play aggressively. With AA, you want to see as much money as possible in the pot, so reraise. For AK you will need to hit an ace or a king. Do not get in a raising war with one player because s/he likely has a pocket pair already.


TT, 99, AQ and QK

These are good hands. Most likely, you will need help from the board. Raise to knock players out - the less players the better.


AJ, AT, KJ, QJ, 10J

These are also good hands. Cautiously play AJ, AT and KJ. You can lose to a higher kicker. Play only if your hand is suited. Raise to knock players out, but do not call a raise.


88, 77, 66, 109, 98, 87, 76

These hands need help from the board. Play only if your hand is suited.


Flop

1. If you are winning but your hand can be beat, you hope a player will bet to you so you can raise. If you are in late position and no one has bet, you must bet to knock people out.

2. If you have three of a kind or maybe even a full house on the flop you do not need to knock players out. You will likely win. Do reraise however if you suspect someone of having a better hand than you have.

3. If you have the second best hand, treat the hand as a drawing hand or simply fold.

4. If you have nothing-just fold at the first bet.

 

Double Flop Hold'em

Crazy Pineapple Poker

This is another variation of Hold'em poker. There are three pocket cards and there is a requirement that one pocket card has to be discarded after the flop

At showdown for crazy pineapple poker, the players can use either of the following:

1.      Both of the remaining pocket cards and the three community cards

2.      One of the remaining pocket cards and four community cards

3.      All five of the board cards

 

7 Card Stud

1.      Seven Card Stud is the most common poker game. Players receive seven cards, three down cards and four up cards. You pick the best five of seven cards and the best hand wins the pot.

2.      There are five betting rounds in Seven Card Stud. One bet and three raises are allowed on each betting round.

3.      Everyone antes. The amount put in the pot before the cards are dealt is predetermined.

4.      Players are dealt three cards, two down and one up.

5.      The lowest up card starts with a bring in bet. If two or more players have the same lowest card the suit decides order. First clubs, then diamonds, hearts, and spades.

6.      Third Street is the first round of betting.

7.      One more card is dealt face up. This is Fourth Street, the second round of betting. The highest hand begins the action by checking or betting.

8.      Yet another card is dealt face up. This is the Fifth Street and the third round of betting. The amount doubles here and continues at this amount for the rest of the game.

9.      Now another card is dealt face up. This is "Sixth Street" and fourth betting round.

10.  The final card is dealt down. This card is the River Card or Seventh Street. We have reached the final round of betting and the best hand wins the pot.

 

7 Card Stud Hi-Lo

1.      You receive seven cards, three "down" and four "up". You use the best five of seven cards for your high hand and your best five of seven cards for your low hand.

2.      The game is played like Seven Card Stud, but you can't make a double bet on "Fourth Street" if a pair is showing.

3.      The pot is split if somebody qualifies for "Low".

4.      On High the best hand automatically wins half the pot and could win the whole pot. On Low you have to qualify.

5.      You need a five-card hand with different numerical values from 1 to 8 to qualify for the Low half of the pot. The best Low is A,2,3,4,5. The winning Low hand contains the "lowest high card".

6.      If two or more players qualify for Low and have the same highest card, the second lowest high card is the winning hand, and so on.

7.      Straights and flushes don't count against your Low. You can use any cards for the High or the Low, or you can use the same cards for both the High and Low.

8.      Any leftover odd chip belongs with the High. If any players tie for the High part of the pot and there is an odd chip, the player with the highest card gets it. Otherwise the suit decides, going from Spades, Hearts, Diamonds, and Clubs.

9.      If two or more players tie for the low part of the pot and there is an odd chip, the player with the lowest card gets it. Otherwise the suit decides going from Clubs, Diamonds, Hearts, and Spades.

10.  If you scoop a pot, you win the whole pot.

 

Razz - 7 Card Stud Low


Razz is 7 card stud, but the best low hand wins. It is played with two to eight players. Every player is dealt a total of seven cards, three of them face down, and the other four face up.


Aces are always low. Straights and flushes have no effect on the low value of a hand. The lowest possible hand is A2345.


The Ante

7 card stud has an ante that is 1/5 of the low limit bet. Every player must ante up before the hand begins. The ante does not count towards any future bets.


When every player has 1 card showing, the player with the highest card must bring in, he must place the low limit bet size in the pot. If two or more players share the highest card, the one closest to the dealer's left side must bring in. This bet counts as first round bet.


There are five rounds of betting.

In the first two rounds fixed limit Razz, bets and raises must be equal to the low limit bet size.

In the 3rd, 4rth and 5fth rounds, bets must be equal to the high limit bet size.


3rd street.

Two cards face down and one face up are dealt. The player with the highest card has to bet 1/2 of the low limit bet. He can raise by betting the full low limit bet.

4th street.

Every player receives a 4th card, face up. The player with the lowest hand is the first to fold, check, or bet. If tied, the one closest to the dealer's left will be the first to act.

5th street.

The fifth card is dealt face up. The lowest hand bets first. All bets and raises must be equal to the high limit bet size.

6th street.

The sixth card is dealt face up also. This round is as the previous one.


7th street.

The final card is dealt face down. Betting proceeds as in the previous round. Should all eight players still be in the hand, a single card is placed in the middle of the table face up. Every player may use it.

Showdown.

If you haven't folded by now you will have the option of showing your hand in hopes of taking the pot. The player who bet last is the first to show their hand. Often times a player will muck their hand if they aren't going to win the pot, and don't want their opponents to see what they played.

 

Omaha


1.The first player sits to the left of the dealer. S/he posts the small blind bet (half of the lower limit stake). The second player Sits to the left of the first and posts the big blind bet (the higher limit stake).

2. The dealer deals four facedown pocket cards. The cards are dealt clockwise, starting with the player on the left of the big blind.

3.The first player on the left of the big blind starts the first round. Betting continues clockwise around the table. This betting is at the table's lower limit stake. In this round, each player must at least call the big blind to stay in the game.

4. The Dealer places three community board cards face-up on the table. These cards are shared by all players.

5. Now in the second round, the first active player on the left of the dealer starts the betting. The round then proceeds around the table, The betting is at the table's lower limit stake.

6.Now the dealer places a fourth community board card face-up on the table.

7. The first active player on the left of the dealer starts the third round. The betting proceeds around the table. This round is set at the table's higher limit stake.

8. The dealer puts a fifth community board card, in the center of the Table.

9. Now the first active player on the left of the dealer starts the fourth round. The betting proceeds around the table. The betting is at the table's higher limit stake.

10. After the fourth round is completed and if more than one player remains, there is a Showdown. Each active player combines any two of his/her four pocket cards and any three of the five community board cards to create the highest valued poker hand possible. The player who creates the highest valued hand wins the pot, minus the rake.

 

Omaha high - low


Players are first dealt four cards face down, then by five community cards dealt face up. The five community cards may be used by every player.


To make your best five card high and your hands, you must use two hole cards and three board cards. The player with the best high hand wins half the pot. The player with the best low hand wins the other half. If there is no qualifying low hand, the player with the best high hand wins the entire pot.

A qualifying low hand is made with five cards that are all 8 or lower, the ace counts as one. A low hand cannot have any pairs, but straights or flushes are ok.

Ante

In tournaments Omaha Hi Lo sometimes has an ante. Each player has to put a certain amount into the pot. Ante is often 1/10 of the low limit bet size.

Blinds

The small blind is which is 1/2 of the low limit bet size, and the big blind is equal to the low limit bet size. Before the hand begins, the player to the immediate left of the dealer button has to post the small blind, and the player to the left of that player must post the big blind. These bets count towards the player's first round bet, and the player may choose to raise even if nobody else has.


Betting

There are four rounds of betting. In the first two rounds of betting of the fixed limit game all bets must be equal to the size of the low limit bet. In the last two rounds of betting, all bets must be equal to the high limit bet. A maximum of 3 raises are allowed per betting round.

After the blinds have been posted, action begins. If nobody raises, the small blind can call by adding the other 1/2 of the low limit bet he has already put in. Conversely, The big blind may simply check since s/he has already put in the full size of the first round bet.

The Flop.

Three cards are dealt face up. The player immediately to the left of the dealer is the first to act. All bets and raises must be equal to the low limit bet size.

The Turn.

The fourth card is dealt face up. All bets and raises must be equal to the high limit bet size.

The River. A fifth and final card is dealt face up. All bets and raises must be equal to the high limit bet size.

Showdown.

Everyone who has not folded yet can now show their hand and possibly win the pot. The person who bet last is the first to show their hand. Many players prefer to muck their hand if they aren't going to win the pot.

 

Draw Poker


Draw Poker is played by a maximum of eight players.

In Draw Poker each player receives five cards, dealt face down.

There are two betting rounds. Players who stay in the first round have a chance to change hands by replacing some, none or all of their cards.

After players draw there is the second round. Now follows a showdown. Now the highest hand among active players wins the pot.

About Betting

On the first round, a player, on his turn, must either bet or fold

Check-and-raise is allowed in all Draw games on the second round.

 

Triple Draw or Low Ball Poker


The game is normally played with one or more blinds, sometimes with an ante added. Some betting structures allow the big blind to be called; other structures require the minimum open to be double the big blind. In limit poker, the usual structure has the limit double after the draw. The most popular forms of lowball are ace-to-five lowball, and deuce-to-seven lowball.

Ace-to-five lowball gets its name because the best hand at that form is 5-4-3-2-A.

Deuce-to-seven lowball gets its name because the best hand at that form is 7-5-4-3-2 (not of the same suit).


The object of the game is to get the lowest possible hand. Aces count as high. Both flushes and straights count against you. This leaves the best hand as 2,3,4,5,7 not suited.

The game involves at most 6 players.

Each player is dealt 5 cards.

First the player to the left of the big blind starts the betting with a small bet.

Now the player 2 spaces to the left of the dealer places a big blind bet.


Next, players are given the chance to discard and replace cards in their hands.

Now another round of betting takes place, followed by another round of drawing.

There comes another round of betting.

The third and final draw takes place, followed by the final round of betting.

Players show their cards, and the lowest hand will win the pot.

RULES FOR PLAYABLE HANDS

 


 

Roulette


Go to Betamp to use a roulette recording tool for free. You can go there, then go to your casino. The tool can be sized to tuck into a small part of your screen while your roulette wheel is fully visible. Then you can use the tool to neatly and quickly record and watch the numbers while you apply your roulette strategies....


Roulette betting systems don't work. It is impossible to change the House's Advantage. Take advantage of any bonuses the casino offers. Read the rules - sometimes Roulette doesn't count as wagering to gain the bonus.

There are lots of roulette systems for sale. If these systems worked, the people selling them would be spinning the wheel instead of earning nickels and dimes from sales. Online casinos would not offer the game - they could not absorb such constant wins. Please be rational - do not buy roulette strategies.

There are, however, some things that can help you win.

Variations of Roulette Games


There are two types of Roulette tables...

The American Roulette table has 38 numbers, including 0 and 00. This machine gives the house a 5.26% edge; it is the worst table for players to win on.

The French or European table has 37 numbers (it doesn't have the 00).The single zero wheel reduces the house edge to 2.70% and offers the player better chances of winning.

European and Atlantic City Casinos also feature the "En Prison" rule which is favorable to the player. Most European Casinos use the true En Prison rule. Atlantic City 00 wheels use a variation of the En Prison rule called Surrender.

When En Prison is employed on a European Roulette table, even money bets (Black, Red, Odd, Even, 1-18, 19-36) landing on 0 become imprisoned. If this imprisoned bet wins on the next spin, the original bet is released and returned to the player. That reduces the house edge to 1.35% and represents and even better chance for players.

If you bet on even money, you only lose half of your bet on a spin of 0 or 00. (Only available on 00 Roulette wheels in Atlantic City.)

 

Consequently, these tips are helpful:

·         Quit when you're ahead.

Baccarat

 

Like Roulette, Baccarat is a game of luck.


You are given the choice of betting on the banker winning, the player winning, or a tie between the two.

Two cards are dealt to each the player and the banker.
If you make a winning bet, you win even money. That means you win the same amount you bet.

If you bet on a tie and win, you're paid 8 to 1. So your money is returned to you, plus you get 8x that much.

Calculations show the odds of winning when betting on the house are 44.62%, losing 45.85%, and 9.53% to tie. So betting on the house every time looks like a winner.

Not so fast. To even out the odds the house charges a commission, usually 5%.

Even so, you are still better off betting on the house. That is if the commission is 5%. If it is more than 5% you should bet on the player. Or better yet, find a place with a lower commission.

A bet made for a tie, although the odds of 8 to 1 may sound tempting, it is one of the worst bets in the entire casino, so don't bet on ties.

With your two-card hand you want to have total that is as close as possible to 9.

Tens and face cards count as zero, the ace counts as 1.

Cards 2 thru 9 are worth their face value.

When your initial card total has two digits, the first digit is dropped.

If the first two cards total 8 or 9 the hand is a 'natural' and wins.


If the total is not a natural win for either party, another card is drawn by both.

A tie needs no further explanation.


The moral of the story? Make sure the percentage of commission charged by the house is 5% or less, and bet on the bank.

 


 

Craps


HOW TO PLAY CRAPS


Basic Rules

 

"Pass" bets

This bet is placed on the "pass" line before the "come out" roll. This bet wins at even odds 1:1.

You win if you roll 7 or 11 on the "come out" roll, or if you later roll the point.

You lose if you roll 2, 3 or 12 on the "come out" roll, or an "Out" 7 on later rolls.

 

"Don't pass" bets

This is the opposite of a "pass" bet.

You win if the "come out" roll is craps (2,3 or 12), or if a later roll is an "out" 7.

You lose if the "Come out" roll shows 7 or 11, or if a later roll is the point.

 

"Come/Don't come" bets

These are like "pass/don't pass" bets, except that they are placed during a round. The same rules apply. You win if the next roll is 7 or 11 and you lose if it's craps.

 

"Come-out" roll "pass line/come" "don't pass/don't come"

7 or 11 win (even money) lose

2, 3 or 12 lose win (even money)

4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10 point is established

Throw point before 7 win (even money) lose

Throw 7 before point lose win (even money)

 

"Proposition" Bet

You bet that the next roll will be a specific number. These include 2,3,7, 11 and 12 bets, the Any Craps bets, the Field, Hop and Horn bets.

 

"Odds Bets"

The best strategy is to get the best odds. The best odds in Craps are on the Pass/Don't Pass/Come/Don't Come bets, as the house has the smallest edge here (of about 1.40%). Other bets give the house odds that are too high, such as:

The Field 5.6%

Big 6/Big 8 9.1%

Horn 12.5%

Craps 2/Craps12 13.9%

Any 7: 16.7%

The way to improve these bets is by either "buying odds" or "laying odds". These bets are placed in addition to your first bet, after the Come Out Roll. They improve your first bet, because the house doesn't take any edge on Odds. You're just betting on the dice.

An Odds Bet is a "back up" of an original bet

Most casinos only pay in $1 dollar increments. You will lose anything less than a dollar. If you "lay double odds" at $10 and get a 3-2 payout, or 6 - 5 in particular, you will lose everything less than $1, since you can't divide multiples of 10 by 3 or 6. On the 5/9 point you could lose $.67. This may not be a lot, but why give the house anything.

So, try a $6 bet instead of a $5 bet, making the Double Odds bet $12.

 

"Pass Line Odds" Bets

Bet placed after a Point is established (placed in "Pass Line" bar after a Pass Line Bet has been made).

Win: when the roll is 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10

 

"Don't Pass Line Odds" Bets

Bet placed after a Point is established (placed in "Don't Pass" bar after a Don't Pass Line Bet has been made).
Win: when the roll is 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10

 

"Come Odds" Bets

Bet placed after a Come Point is established (placed in "4, 5, SIX, 8, NINE, or 10" bar)

Win: when the roll is 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10

 

"Don't Come Odds" Bets

Bet placed after a Don't Come Point is established (placed in "4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10" bar)

Win: when the roll is 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10

 

"Field" Bets

Win: when the roll is 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11, or 12
Lose: when the roll is 5, 6, 7, or 8

 

"Big 6" and "Big 8" Bets

A "Big 6" Bet is a bet that 6 will be rolled before 7; a "Big 8" Bet is a bet that 8 will be rolled before 7.

The bet is placed in either the "Big 6" or "Big 8" box located in the left corner of the craps table. This bet wins even money. Unresolved bets may be removed.

 

"Place Win" Bet

Win: when the roll is 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10 before 7

Winning bets payout according to the following ratios: 7-to-6 on numbers 6 and 8, 7-to-5 on numbers 5 and 9, and 9-to-5 on numbers 4 and 10.

Place Win Bets are inactive during Come Out Rolls. The markers are removed after the Come Out Roll, since all Place Bets will be active. Unresolved Place Bets may be removed.

 

"Place Lose" Bet

Win: when the roll is 7 before 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10

Winning bets payout according to the following ratios: 4-to-5 on numbers 6 and 8, 5-to-8 on numbers 5 and 9, and 5-to-11 on numbers 4 and 10.

 

"Buy" Bets

Win when the roll is 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10 before 7 (bet covered with a "BUY" marker)
The bet is covered with a "BUY" marker to distinguish it from a Come Bet. A commission charged when placing a "Buy" Bet and the winnings are paid at true odds: 6-to-5 on numbers 6 and 8, 3-to-2 on numbers 5 and 9, and 2-to-1 on numbers 4 and 10. If a "Buy" Bet is lost or removed, the commission is returned.
Buy Bets are inactive during Come Out Rolls, an "OFF" marker will cover your Buy Bet to indicate that is inactive. The markers are removed after the Come Out Roll, since all Buy Bets will be active. Unresolved Place Bets may be removed.

 

"Lay" Bets

Win: when the roll is 7 before 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10 (bet covered with a "LAY" marker)

 

The bet is covered with a "LAY" marker to distinguish it from a "Don't Come" Bet. A commission is charged when placing the "Lay" Bet and the winnings are paid at true odds: 5-to-6 on numbers 6 and 8, 2-to-3 on numbers 5 and 9, and 1-to-2 on numbers 4 and 10. Lay Bets are active even during the Come Out Roll. Unresolved Lay Bets may be removed.

 

"Any 7" Bets

Win when the roll is 7

If 7 is rolled, you win 4 times your bet.

 

"Any 11" Bets

Win: when the roll is 11

If 11 is rolled, you win 15 times your bet.

 

"Any Craps" Bets

Win: when the roll 2, 3, or 12

If 2, 3, or 12 is rolled, you win 7 times your bet.

 

"Horn" Bets

Win: when the roll 2, 3, 11, or 12

A Winning Horn Bet pays 15-to-1 on numbers 3 and 11, and 30-to-1 on numbers 2 and 12.

Placing a Horn Bet divides your wager by four. A quarter of the bet is placed on each number. When you win, the amount won is a quarter of your total bet times the given odds.

 

"Hardway" Bets

Win 4 (2+2), 6 (3+3), 8 (4+4), or 10 (5+5) rolled before 7

Rolling a number by doubles is said to be rolling the number "the hard way." For example, a roll of 4+4 is a called a "hard 8," while a roll of 5+3 or 6+2 is called an "easy 8." A winning bet pays 7-to-1 on numbers 4 and 10, and 9-to-1 on numbers 6 and 8.

Unresolved Hardway Bets may be removed; they are inactive during Come Out Rolls.

 

Basic Tips


1. The only way to get a mathematical edge at craps
When you bet "don't", once you are up on the numbers, you are doing great because you are rooting for the seven, which has six chances of appearing in 36 possible combinations of two six sided dice. (see the chart above)

The six and eight can each be made five ways. So when you are up on the "don't" six, you have six ways to win (on the number seven) and five ways to lose. When the bet is $10 you would win $60, lose $50, and be ahead by $10.

2. The odds bet

Many players make "pass" line bets and can't afford to take odds or full odds behind the bet once the points are set. The casino has no edge on the odds and in the long run your expectation is to break even. That could be a lot of casino fun with no expected cost!

3. "Don't pass" or don't "come" with odds

Put the least amount on the "don't pass" or "don't come" and the most on odds afterwards. The house has a 1.40 percent edge on the "don't pass" and "don't come" bets, but no edge on the odds bets.

4. "Pass" or "come" with odds

The house has a 1.41 percent edge on "pass" and "come", but, again, no edge on the odds.

5. Place six or eight to win

When you place 6 or 8 to win in multiples of $6, the casino has only a 1.52 percent edge. You'll get $7 for your $6.

6. Place six or eight to "lose"

You place $5 "lose". If the seven shows, you win $4. The house edge is 1.82 percent.

7. "Lay" against four or ten

The house edge is 2.44 percent.

8. Place five or nine to "lose"

If the seven shows you win. The house edge is 2.50 percent.

9. When you "lay" odds, bet "don't pass" in multiples of $6, and bet all on double odds to get a multiple of $12.

10. When you bet "pass", wager a multiple of $5 so your double odds are in multiples of $10.

11. In the come-out roll odds are in favor of the shooter. S/he has a better chance of throwing a 7 or 11 than a 2, 3 or 12.

12. If the come-out roll results in a point being made, the odds of winning go down. The shooter is now more likely to throw a 7 than the point number.

13. The odds of throwing a 7 are constant at 6 in 36 or 16.7%

14. The odds of throwing a 4 or 10 are 3 in 36 or 8.3%

15. The odds of throwing a 5 or 9 are 4 in 36 or 11.1%

16. The odds of throwing a 6 or 8 are 5 in 36 or 13.9%

17. Know the odds payoffs of the bets you intend to make.

18. Make bets where the house advantage is the lowest. Do not make "proposition" bets.

19. "Take" or "lay" the maximum allowed odds. If the wagers are too high for you, make small flat bets.


20. If you really have to place bets on 4 or 10, or 5 or 9, "buy" them.

21. As a rule, after the points are fixed, don't add to "pass" or "come" bets.

22. After the points are fixed, don't remove your "don't pass" or "don't come" bets.

23. Set a goal and quit while you're ahead.

24. Set a loss limit and don't lose more than you can afford to.

25. Increase your bets when winning, decrease them when losing.

About Playing Slots Online

How do they work?

They are quite random. The very second you click to spin, large, random numbers are generated and translated into slot reel positions. There are no real cycles of paying and taking, even though it may seem like it to you at times.

These random numbers are grouped into certain positions, and some of these positions are "weighted" by the software, so that they will come up more often than others. So the jackpot is hit a certain percentage of the time, and the payouts in general are set - often at 95%. So the machine pays out all but 5% of the takes, and those 5% go to the casino.

Land casinos work much the same.


How to play to win!

There are no real "slot machine strategies". If somebody wants to sell you one, don't buy it. If there really was one, nobody would waste their time selling it. They'd be spinning the reels!

But some things can help you win. When playing progressives, always play all the lines. The jackpots are only paid if you play the maximum bet! If you can't afford playing all the lines on one machine, find one with lower bets!

Theoretically, the non progressives are looser and the lower category wins there are higher than in jackpot slots. So, while most people prefer the progressives, and we deal mostly with them here, do not ignore this advantage the non-progressives can bring you.

Some slots have great bonus games you can win to play - we'll try to point those out to you. You can click on the casinos listed above, who have those slots and go right there to play them.

We list many different slots, where to play them and what their betting amounts and lines are. This will help you make better decisions as to what to play.


Subscribe to the Games and Casino newsletter. It is published somewhat irregularly, but it very often has crucial information for slots players.

It will list the online slots that are most likely to hit. This is determined by looking at the amounts these slots usually hit at, as well as the length of time it usually takes to get there. We pick the slots that are most seriously overdue, regardless of which casino software, and publish it for you.
You can subscribe here: NEWSLETTER

You can also send a mail to dominique@thegoodluckcharm.com and get the currently best slots to play by mail within 24 hours. Make sure you put "slots info" in the subject line.

Online Keno


Keno is a lottery-type game.

20 numbers are randomly drawn from a pool of 80 numbers.

Players can select from 2 to 10 numbers.

You win a prize depending on whether and how many numbers match the numbers that were drawn randomly.


How to Play:

You will usually find a way to increase or decrease bets. This ahs no effect on whether you win, just how much.

Often you will have a choice to play more than one game at a time, you can select from one to ten games in many online Keno games.


To play the game, click on any number on the numbers grid.

You can usually clear a single pick by clicking on that number, or you can clear the entire grid by clicking on the "Clear" button.

Auto Pick : You can select the "Auto Pick" button to randomly pick 10 numbers on the grid before the start of a game.



When playing online or video keno, get a feel of the game first. It's virtually impossible to simulate true randomness electronically. Because the computer uses different algorithms to imitate a random draw, playing your numbers in patterns instead of spreading them out all over can sometimes work to your advantage.


I particularly like the Keno game offered by Party Bingo UP TO 150% MATCH BONUS
