			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you are looking for a fun and challenging alternative to playing slot machines, video poker is the game for you. Instead of simply pulling the machine handle and hoping that you will be lucky enough to meet a row of identical icons, in video poker your moves would rule whether you win or lose. Moreover, the house edge in video poker is much lower than at slots. </p>
<p>Playing video poker is similar to playing draw poker on a slot machine. It enables you to enjoy the action of poker without having to face other players who may be more experienced and skilled than you are. In addition, in video poker, there are no dealers, no rakes, no bluffing, no cheating; it is all about you and your poker skills. </p>
<p>How to Play Video Poker:<br />
There are several variations to video poker. Some of the video poker variations are played with standard 52 card decks while others are played with additional wild cards. All the variations are based on the traditional card game of poker. Therefore, a basic knowledge of poker hand ranking is necessary. </p>
<p>You start by choosing the coin value you wish to play and then pick the number of coins that you want to bet. Afterwards, you click on deal and five cards will appear on your screen. You can discard some or all of the cards and replace them with new ones. After pressing hold on the cards you wish to keep, you push the deal button and the machine replaces your discarded cards with new ones. </p>
<p>The outcome of the second draw determines whether you win or lose. Each video poker machine displays its payout table, which details the number of coins the machine pays for each five card poker hand. The payout table differs from one video poker variation to the other and so is the minimum hand that qualifies for a payout. </p>
<p>Video poker odds are the same as in regular card poker. A 52 card deck produces more than 2.5 million hand combination. Each video poker machine is set by a random number generator, which simulates the probabilities of drawing any of the poker hand combinations. While in regular card poker, the casino ensure its profits by collecting a rake, in video poker the casino ensure its profits by setting each machine pay table differently. </p>
<p>Video Poker Tips:<br />
1) Learn the basics of draw poker before you start playing video poker at online casinos or at a casino nearby.<br />
2) Know the machine payout of the table you have decided to play at by selecting the machine that offers the highest return.<br />
3) Adjust your strategy to the  specific video poker variation you intend to play.<br />
4) Use a mathematical strategy to play the game correctly.<br />
5) Do not keep cards that cannot be used to form a winning hand.<br />
6) Hold on to any pair instead of keeping a high card.<br />
7) Keep any pair rather than draw into a straight or a flush.<br /> <img src='http://hillslake.ca/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_cool.gif' alt='8)' class='wp-smiley' /> Practice playing online video poker in a play money mode.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Harking from the 17th century, Roulette has been a favourite casino game for the ages that is now adapting to the amazing medium of the Internet.</p>
<p>Roulette is a casino and gambling game named after the French word meaning &#8220;small wheel&#8221;. It dates back from the 17th century in France and was brought to the USA in the early 1800s. Over the 19th century, the game spread all over Europe and the US and has become one of the most popular casino games, often referred to as the &#8220;King of Casino Games&#8221;.</p>
<p>A legend has it that Francois Blanc, the person who introduced the &#8220;0&#8243; to the Roulette wheel, bargained with the devil to obtain the secrets of the game. It is based on the fact that the sum of all numbers on the Roulette wheel is 666, &#8216;the number of the devil&#8217;. However, this has not prevented large numbers of people around to world from enjoying the game for many generations. Indeed, the popularity of Roulette continues to grow with the arrival of online Roulette, which is played over the internet.</p>
<p>Online Roulette is a firm favourite amongst the many games available at online casinos. It has become popular very quickly and has gained enormous demand. The game is easy to play and offers exciting, varied play with good player returns.</p>
<p>The two general types of Roulette are European Roulette (or French Roulette), which has a single zero, and American Roulette, which has both single and double zeroes, which increases the chances of the house. The preferred option is therefore to play a single-zero online Roulette, other things being equal.</p>
<p>Online Roulette, drawing on the vast potential of internet technologies, need not be confined to traditional rules and varieties. Some online casinos offer interesting options that entice both experience players and novices. The Red Lounge Casino, for example, has a number of online Roulette games that are focused on delivering big payouts and new features.</p>
<p>Among these is Red Lounge Casino&#8217;s beautifully designed Single-Zero Roulette, which features the favourable &#8220;La Partage&#8221; rule. This rule allows players to receive half of their bet when the outcome is zero. Another popular feature of the game is the facility to bet on as many spots as desired. Single-Zero Roulette pays 35 to 1 for hitting a single number.</p>
<p>Red Lounge Casino&#8217;s Bonus Roulette is proof that the double-zero format has plenty to offer the player who seeks something a bit different while still having the original thrill of online Roulette. The unique Bonus feature pays out every time a player gets five Reds in a row. This rule significantly increases the player&#8217;s chances of winning over traditional double-zero Roulette games found in Las Vegas casinos and around the world.</p>
<p>These examples briefly illustrate some of the many options and features online Roulette may offer. Rules may vary between casinos and reflect both national gaming traditions as well as the vast potential granted by the Internet. Nevertheless, all varieties preserve the thrill and challenge of this &#8220;king of gambling&#8221;.</p>

<br />
Now you know!  Remember, learn how to <b>play</b> <b>casino</b> craps the right way.</p>]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Be smart, play smart, learn how to play casino craps the right way!</p>
<p>A Hardway bet is a standing bet that you can make, remove, increase, or decrease at any time.  You bet that a hardway number will show as a pair before any other combination of that number, and before a 7 shows.  A Hardway bet can be made only on the numbers 4, 6, 8, and 10.  For a Hardway bet, each roll can produce three possible outcomes: 1) The hardway number is rolled and the bet wins, 2) The &#8220;easyway&#8221; number or any 7 is rolled and the bet loses, 3) Any other number is rolled and the bet neither wins nor loses (i.e., it &#8220;stands&#8221; until it wins or loses, or until you remove it).</p>
<p>What&#8217;s a &#8220;hardway&#8221; versus an &#8220;easyway?&#8221;  As noted, Hardway bets are made on the 4, 6, 8, and 10.  Let&#8217;s look at the 10.  There are three possible dice combinations to make a 10, which are: 4-6, 6-4, and 5-5.  Which of those three combinations of numbers do you think is considered the &#8220;hardway&#8221; for making a 10?  You&#8217;re right!  The 5-5 combination is considered the &#8220;Hard 10.&#8221;  Therefore, your Hard 10 bet stands until a 5-5 is rolled (you win), any 7 is rolled (you lose), or an Easy 10 (i.e., 4-6 or 6-4) is rolled (you lose).  Now, let&#8217;s quickly look at the 4, 6, and 8.</p>
<p>There are three ways to make a 4, and the dice combinations are: 3-1, 1-3, and 2-2.  The Hard 4 bet wins if a 2-2 shows before any 7, 1-3, or 3-1.</p>
<p>There are five ways to make a 6, and the dice combinations are: 1-5, 5-1, 2-4, 4-2, and 3-3.  The Hard 6 bet wins if a 3-3 shows before any 7, 1-5, 5-1, 2-4, or 4-2.</p>
<p>There are five ways to make an 8, and the dice combinations are: 2-6, 6-2, 3-5, 5-3, and 4-4.  The Hard 8 bet wins if a 4-4 shows before any 7, 2-6, 6-2, 3-5, or 5-3.</p>
<p>Although the 2 and 12 are even numbers and both are made by quasi-hardway combinations (i.e., the 2 is made by 1-1, and the 12 is made by 6-6), there&#8217;s no Hardway bet for them because neither has an easyway combination.</p>
<p>The table minimum bet doesn&#8217;t apply to Hardway bets.  Instead, the minimum is whatever the lowest-denomination chip is in play for that table, which is usually $1.  The payoff for the Hard 4 and Hard 10 is 7:1; whereas, the payoff for the Hard 6 and Hard 8 is 9:1.  The Hard 6 and 8 each have four easyways to lose.  The Hard 4 and 10 each have only two easyways to lose.  Therefore, with more ways to lose, the Hard 6 and 8 have a higher payoff than the Hard 4 and 10.</p>
<p>Some casinos try to trick the inexperienced player into thinking they have higher Hardway payoffs than their competition by offering odds written on the table layout as &#8220;8 for 1&#8243; and &#8220;10 for 1.&#8221;  At first glance, this does appear to be a bit better than 7:1 and 9:1.  However, look at it closely and you&#8217;ll see that it&#8217;s 8 &#8220;for&#8221; 1, instead of 8 &#8220;to&#8221; 1.  &#8220;8 for 1&#8243; means they pay you $8 but they keep your $1 bet.  7:1 means they pay you $7 and you keep your $1 bet.  Therefore, &#8220;8 for 1&#8243; is the same as 7:1, and &#8220;10 for 1&#8243; is the same as 9:1.  If I&#8217;m somewhere with lots of casinos such as Vegas, and unless it&#8217;s a $3 table with high maximum free odds (e.g., at least 10x), I turn around, walk out, and go to the casino next door.  It bugs me to see a casino try to trick players into thinking it offers better odds than its competition.  So, to hell with them, I go somewhere else.</p>
<p>You can call Hardway bets on or off at any time.  This usually occurs after the shooter makes a point.  Players typically play the Pass Line, so after a game ends, they make another Pass Line bet.  They root for a 7 on the come-out roll, but although a 7 on the come-out is a winner for the Pass Line, it&#8217;s a loser for the working Hardway bets.  Therefore, players tend to call their Hardways off for the come-out roll so they can root for a 7 without worrying about losing their Hardways.  The dealer then puts an OFF button on their Hardways.  After the shooter makes a point, players call their Hardways back on and working.  The dealer then removes the OFF button.</p>
<p>You must be aware of the casino&#8217;s policy for whether Hardway bets are on or off for the come-out roll.  There doesn&#8217;t seem to be consistency among casinos.  Ask the dealer, &#8220;Are the Hardways automatically off?&#8221;  Or simply listen to the stickman before the come-out roll, who says something like, &#8220;Hardways work unless you call them off.&#8221;  If you don&#8217;t want a conflict in what to root for (i.e., rooting for a 7 on the come-out conflicts with your working Hardways), then simply call your Hardways off on the come-out and then call them back on after the shooter makes a point.</p>
<p>Hardways are located in the center of the table and typically controlled by the stickman, so don&#8217;t try to put down or pick up any of these bets yourself.  When you have the stickman&#8217;s attention, gently toss your chips to an open area near the center of the table and say, &#8220;Hard four, please.&#8221;  Sometimes, the stickman catches your chips in mid-air.  Sometimes, he lets them fall to the table and then picks them up.  When you gently toss your chips, try not to hit other people&#8217;s chips on the table because they could fly everywhere and then the game is delayed while the stickman figures out where they all go.  After a while, you become incredibly accurate with your toss.  I can stand at the end of the table and toss a $1 chip to land in whichever Hardway box I want to bet.  Oddly, other players are impressed with that worthless skill.  The stickman then places your chips inside the Hardway box in a position that corresponds to your table position (in a manner similar to Place bets).</p>
<p>Now you know!  Remember, learn how to play casino craps the right way.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It should come as no surprise that online casinos operate with a house advantage, just like their cousins in the real world. This is just the way it goes, whether you are playing in Las Vegas, Macau or online in your PJs. Casino companies don´t operate for fun: they are businesses, and they need to make a profit like any other business. The way they do this is to levy a charge for people to move money and chips around in their casino, just as banks charge to move money around the financial world. If you are playing Texas Hold ´em poker, this is the rake. You´ll be charged a small fee for the dealer to deal you a hand. <br />A casino will keep a portion of the bets going over its tables for itself. This money does not go into the overall pile that pays the winners: it goes to the casino.<br />That much is generally understood (although some people choose to not think about it). What I find intriguing, is not that people play play roulette or blackjack- it is good fun after all and there are winners as well as losers- it´s that many punters who frequent casinos often play the tables or machines that are the most pricey to play, i.e. that have the biggest house edge.<br />If you are going to bet, it is advisable to play casino games that give you the best chance of winning, or at least to play games that are weighted to the best payouts.<br />Now let´s discuss online baccarat, as this will illustrate my point. The Banker Bet in baccarat has a house edge of just 1.1%. American Roulette comes in at a less than satisfactory 5.3% and if you play keno you´ll be paying a 25% &#8220;casino tax&#8221;. You´ll get very good odds if you play blackjack online IF you play a perfect blackjack game (by that I mean you stand at the optimum time to give yourself the best odds). Baccarat is a beautifully simple game, on the other hand- so it is easy to play to a perfect strategy.<br />This is one of the key drivers behind the popularity of Baccarat, especially when it comes down to high stakes players and high rollers, as this game has one of the lowest house advantages in the casino. Often you will see baccarat tables in Vegas and Macau sectioned off from the general public. That´s because the baccarat tables are where the big money and glamour are. And it´s a similar story if you play <a href="http://www.onlinebaccarat.net">online baccarat</a>.<br />But you don´t need to be rich and famous to have a go. Play online and there are no velevet cords stopping you from getting to the tables. The best baccarat bet is the Banker Bet as the house only takes 1.17%, while the house edge for a player bet is slightly more, but still an accaeptable 1.35%. Don&#8217;t play the tie bet. Although the pay out is tempting at8:1, compared to 2:1, the house edge is punitive at 14%.<br />So why is roulette more popular than Baccarat? I don´t know. It beats me. I put it down to the film industry, but even that puzzles me as baccarat has its fair share of film scenes and James Bond moments.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you&#8217;re like me playing free casino games keeps me entertained for hours, its nice to be able to just download the software offered as a courtesy of online cyber casinos with no strings attached. Even when you play for free you get to play and experience just what its like as if you were playing for real money. If you haven&#8217;t ever tried a flash casino or a cyber casino you are missing some really cool state-of-art gaming graphics and fun. </p>
<p>Playing at online casinos is virtually just like being there in person as if you went to Las Vegas. Actually, there are plenty of advantages to playing online that you can&#8217;t get from playing at traditional casinos. First and foremost, you get to play right in the privacy of your own home. Secondly, you save tons of money for travel such as airfare, if you fly, hotel accommodations, and the expense of eating out.</p>
<p>So actually, with all the money you save if you decide to open a real account and step up from free play you will have even more money that you will be free to wager. Now, I recommend signing up a free account first just to experience all a cyber casino has to offer and experience it for yourself. You will simply be amazed by both the wonderful graphics and sounds that are packed into any game you select to play. If you like to play slots, cyber casinos bring you all the favorites plus new games you won&#8217;t find offline at any casinos even in Las Vegas. </p>
<p>If pokers your bag playing online offers you the flexibility to control how much you wager with even lower minimums than traditional casinos where generally wagers start at $5, and even this is not feasible because of the high stakes. But in online poker, you can start at 25¢ or even 10¢, and work your way up gradually. Additionally, you have other benefits, games play much faster and you can you can change tables or even casinos without a long waiting line. </p>
<p>Here is a tip for cyber poker games, always start at the lowest level of wagering. When you feel like you&#8217;re on a lucky streak then up the bets, your chances may be better at a poker room that does not have 50¢ games. This is because, if the lowest level available is 50¢, then 50¢ tables are where the worst players are likely to go-the ones that you want to play. This leaves only the half-decent or better players at the $2 games-the ones you do not want to play.  Both flash and cyber casinos are great for 10¢-50¢ amateurs and for serious players who want to up the wagers to $5 or$10 bucks.</p>
<p>Playing free casino games is a great way to test online gaming, so by all means sign up for a free account and try it out first. If you like the online casino and want to play for real money look for their special offers, as many will deposit a real $10.00 or $25.00 into your account when you play for real. Yet another opportunity to give them a try before you deposit any money of your own.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are several reasons why I think blackjack is the best casino game. First of all it has a pedigree. Evolving from a host of different games it came on to its own in the 1700s. Then it was polished in land casinos all over the world before taking online gaming by storm. When you play blackjack you are playing a game that not only has a history and a heritage but also one that has an exciting future.</p>
<p>Indisputably gambling games are games of chance. But to place a bet and then wait for Lady Luck to do the rest is not my idea of the best casino game. That is why I avoid games like roulette. In blackjack players have to constantly make decisions. They have to decide whether to stand, that is stop taking more cards, or to hit, that is asking for another card. Then there are options of double down or doubling the wager and split or playing two hands. Some casinos offer options like surrender that minimizes the losses and insurance in which players can hedge against the dealer winning. So in blackjack there is plenty to think about and a lot of skill involved. The skill is compounded by the fact that at any given time in the game the possibilities are limitless. The combination of skill and gut feeling along with the luck involved makes blackjack the best casino game as far as I am concerned.</p>
<p>But what makes blackjack the best casino game is the odds the game offers. Different casinos play under different rules and therefore the house edge varies from casino to casino. But if one takes average values the house edge for best play is less than half percent. This means that for every dollar wagered the player can expect to take back 99.5 cents. This is much better than what is offered in slots or roulette or most bets in craps. Most slot machines have a house edge of at best 7% and hence they return only 93 cents for every dollar wagered. European roulette has a house edge of 2.7% and the return in only 97.3 cents for every dollar wagered. Only some video poker games give returns comparable to blackjack but these games provide only a fraction of the excitement.</p>
<p>The operative words are &#8220;for best play&#8221; and this means that players have to put in some effort to understand and learn the strategy. But this effort is a small investment for huge returns. Look at it this way. The better the player?s strategy the lesser the amount of luck he needs. Therefore do a bit of homework and start playing the best casino game and very soon you may figure with the best in the Blackjack Hall of Fame.</p>
