Hi guys!

So we went through all of the very basic casino games that you can play in casinos or even online. There are a lot more off course but this are the main ones. Now I’m going to focus more on the things I really wanted to post when I began this blog. And this is mainly on tips, different news and where to play free online Blackjack, Poker and other games.

So the first one I wanted to share with you is BlackJackClub.com. It’s a really ql website where you can play for the real money or you can choose to play their flash BlackJack game totally for free. Your choice!

But there is more to it. They really have a vast choice of other classic table games, slot games and even 3D games and they offer a 24/7 support if anything happens to go wrong.

Have fun!

These are the games I don’t like at all. Baccarat is really easy but that’s why to me is boring. Craps on the other hand guarantees lot’s of fun but is very hard to understand and play. I never really knew how it is played but I’m going to try it some day. Let’s just review some of the basics of both.

Wiki explains it like this: in Baccarat, cards 2-9 are worth face value, 10s and face cards (J, Q, K) are worth zero, and Aces are worth 1 point. You calculate your score by taking the sum of all cards modulo 10, meaning that after adding the value of the cards the tens digit is ignored. The cards are dealt face down, one to the ‘Player’ first, then to the ‘Banker’; ‘Player’ then ‘Banker’ again. This is the initial deal consisting of two cards each. Both cards in each hand are then turned over and added together and the croupier calls the total (e.g. five to the ‘Player’, three to the ‘Banker’). From this position the ‘Tableau’ or table of play is used to determine if further cards need to be drawn. Depending on the two hands, the Player and Banker may draw a single card or stand pat. The hand with the highest total wins.

Sounds really easy. But for me this video was more helpful.

The game of Craps is more complex and therefore more difficult to explain. In its core is a dice game played against other players or a bank. They take turns rolling two dices as you may have seen in a lot of movies. It would take me too much time to explain all the rulz so I found this video that explains the basics of this casino game very very good.

That’s all folks! See you next time when we take on slots

Oh poker! That’s my week spot. I go crazy for it. The great thing about poker is that you play against other players and not only the dealer. That’s why there is a whole community of poker players out there, and they/we are all eager to meet and talk to one another.

There are many different types of online poker games that differ in how the cards are being dealt. By now you should know what my favorite is but just to be correct, I will mansion them all.

The simplest one is Draw poker. We all played that one at party’s after a few drinks and with hardly any clothes ;). Each player gets a complete hand of cards turned face-down. After betting you are allowed to change your hand by discarding cards you don’t want anymore. Instead of those you get new ones. Five-card draw is the most famous variation in this family.

Then there is Stud poker. Every player in the game gets a combination of face-up and face-down cards in a multiple betting rounds. The player that has the best five card poker hand wins the game. The most common are seven-card and five-card stud.

But my favourite of all is a community Card poker. The best known are Texas and Omaha Hold’em. In both you get some face-down cards in your hand (2 or 4 – depends of the game) and 5 face-up cards (community cards) that everyone you play against can use. But the catch is, that you can only use 2 cards that are in your hand, and 3 of those that are on the table. In between there are rounds of betting so you can bet or fold as the community cards are dealt.

So, these are the main 3 families of poker games. There are a lot more specific variants that I’m not gonna talk about. I think it’s more important for you to know the value of the hands that you can get playing poker so I found for you these two video’s that explain just that very simply.

Till next time!

The game of Blackjack is one of the most well known games in casinos. Since the web is full of information regarding the game it doesn’t seem necessary to me to rewrite all of them but I can give you some guidelines where to find them. Let me at least tell you some basics on what BJ is all about.

In casino blackjack you play directly against the dealer. At the beginning of each round, you place a bet and receive initial two cards. The object of the game is to get a higher card total then the dealer, but without going over 21 which is called “busting”, “too many” or as I call it “ouch”. The spot cards count 2 to 9, the 10, J, Q, and K count as 10 but an A can be either 1 or 11. You play first by taking additional cards if you wish to do so. If you bust, you lose. Then the dealer plays his hand. If he busts, he loses to all remaining players. If neither busts, the higher hand total wins. In case of a tie, no one wins and in that case the hand is a “push”.

I found for you some pretty basic explanations on YouTube. I really like them cause you can learn stuff much faster then by reading books and articles.  Here are some of those but you can find more by typing blackjack or online blackjack into YouTube search engine.

Still wanna know more? I know I did So I went to these websites. First I read the Wikipedia article. But if that’s not enough for you there is a website called BlackJackInfo.com with all the informations you need to start play. My online blackjack favorite is 777.com but you can play it for free in lots of others places.

Have fun! Besitos
