BLACKJACK

Blackjack is one of the most popular games in the casino. Each Player’s wager is a bet against the Dealer’s hand. The object of this card game is to have the total point value of the cards dealt to you exceed the point value of the Dealer’s hand without going over 21. If you draw cards that total more than 21, your hand breaks and you will automatically lose.

The Dealer starts the game by dealing two cards face up to each Player. The Dealer takes one card face up. The Dealer’s second card is dealt face down and placed underneath the first card. All cards shall be dealt from a dealing “shoe.” Each card assumes the value of the card shown. Kings, Queens and Jacks count as 10. The Ace counts either as 1 or 11, whichever you choose. If you feel you need additional cards to beat the Dealer, you gesture one at a time for additional cards (called “hits”) until you decide to stand. A Dealer must draw on any point total of 16 or less and must stand on any point total of 17 or more. If a Dealer’s point total exceeds 21, all Players win who have a point total of 21 or less. Otherwise, the Dealer pays all hands that exceed the Dealer’s point total, takes all bets that are less and leaves (“pushes”) all bets that equal the Dealer’s point total. All winning bets are paid one-to-one. However, if your initial two cards total 21, you have a Blackjack and will be paid at 3 to 2.

The game of Blackjack is not a guessing game! There is always a correct decision that the player should make on every hand that is dealt. I will show you how to play like most of the professionals do, no guessing, simply learn and use the basic strategy chart that is included in my Blackjack lesson booklet.

CRAPS

Craps is a fast moving exciting game played on a large table that offers a variety of bets on the layout. Each bet is dependent upon the point value of the uppermost side of two dice that have come to rest after having been thrown by a player or “shooter”. The heart of the game of Craps is the pass line bet. If you make a bet on the pass line and the first roll of the dice (known as the “come out roll”) is a 7 or 11, you win automatically. If a 2, 3 or 12 is rolled, you “crap out” or lose. Any other number rolled (i.e., 4,5,6,8,9, or 10) becomes the pass line “point”. Pass line bets win if the shooter rolls the point before rolling a 7. If a 7 is rolled prior to the point being made, the shooter “sevens out” and the pass line bettors lose. The shooter continues to roll the dice until he or she sevens out, where upon the dice pass to the next player. You need not be the shooter to make a pass line bet. There are more than a dozen different bets available on a Craps layout but some of those bets should never be made. I will show you the best bets to make.

ROULETTE

Roulette is a fascinating game that provides exciting action with its spinning wheel and bouncing white ball. Roulette offers a variety of bets, straight up on one number, combination of numbers, Red or Black, Odd or Even, High or Low, Dozens & Columns. You play with your own distinct colored chips that are good only at the table where they were issued the value of which is established by the amount of your “buy in.” You also may play with house chips such as $1, $5 or $25 chips. Each betting cycle begins with the Dealer spinning a small white ball in the opposite direction of the turning Roulette wheel. Bets may be placed until the Dealer announces no more bets. When the ball comes to rest, the Dealer points out the winning number, and winning bets are paid.
The exact placement of the chips determines the bet being made. Each player is responsible for the correct positioning of his or her wager on the layout regardless of whether the bet is placed by the Dealer. In all Atlantic City casinos, if the ball comes to rest in a zero (0) or double zero (00), players wagering on any even money bets shall lose only half of their bet.
