Betting Bets

Some people think that they have better chances if they play certain slot machine games such as those in the entrance, those that haven't paid off for a long time, or ones that have been paying off a lot. Don't waste your time trying to find a "hot" machine or a machine that is "due" to payoff, it's a myth. The slot machines are programmed at the manufacturing site to be random, each play on each machine has the same odds no matter how often or how long ago it paid off.There is some truth that the higher denomination machine payoff slightly more often than the smaller denomination machines. The nickel and quarter machines usually pay the least, while the $100.00 machines pay off the most often.It is also true that if you are a regular player, and play a lot the casino may consider you a preferred customer. These preferred customers may be given rewards by the casino in an attempt to keep their business. So it may be to your advantage to stay with only one casino and do all of your gaming at the same place.Simple Slots : for simple slot machines where you simply bet one coin and pull the lever there is no strategy, you simply play for fun. Just remember to play at a level you can afford. Take your wins when you get them, accept your losses, and enjoy yourself.Multiple-Coin slots are slot machines that allow for multiple coins to be played. There are two different types:

  1. On some, you can increase your odds of winning by increasing the number of payout lines. Each coin played adds another payout line up to a maximum of five, three horizontal lines and two diagonal lines. The machine will pay out on winning sequences on all lines you've bet on.
  2. On others, you can increase the payout on winning depending on your bet. For example, if one coin is played a payout might be 200 coins, 500 coins for two coins played and 1000 coins if a third coin is played. The best strategy for these machines is to play the maximum numbers of coins, because assuming you win the same number of times the additional payout percentage makes you more money. Think about stepping down a level if you want to limit your wagers, it is smarter to play a quarter machine using maximum coins rather than to play a dollar machine using one coin.

• First/Initial Bet - The odds for the initial bet are 1:1. Thats the bet that you make at the beginning before any cards are dealt out.
• Raise Bet - If you win on the 'raise bet' the winnings are determined on the spread (gap in between the highest and lowest) of the cards. :-
• 1 Card Spread - Pays 5:1. For example the cards drawn are 5 and 7, the 3rd card is 6.
• 2 Card Spread - Pays 4:1. For example the cards drawn are 5 and 8, the 3rd card is 6 or 7.
• 3 Card Spread - Pays 2:1. For example the cards drawn are 5 and 9, the 3rd card is 6, 7 or 8.
• 4 - 11 Card Spread - Pays 1:1. For example the cards drawn are 2 and an Ace (14), the 3rd card is anything from 3 to King (13)

If the dealer deals out two consecutive cards then the game is a push. If the dealer deals out a pair, he automaticaly deals a 3rd card, if the 3rd card is the same card again creating a 3 of a kind then the dealer is paid 11:1.

7 Sultans Casino have gone out of their way to make sure that they have more great features than any other Microgaming casino. The first of these features is their express download. Due to the amount of games that Microgaming offer, their casinos can often take quite a while to download (13mb) 7 Sultans is the first Microgaming casino we have found that offers the express download option of 5 mb, making it one of the fastest Microgaming casino downloads available.

The interface is well themed and offers just about every single game that Microgaming make. With a massive 75 games on offer, 7 Sultans Casino have hours of entertainment lined up for you! Any of you slot junkies out there will love their 44 slots, 4 feature slots and 5 progressives. The slots are great fun and many of the themes will have you in stitches!! There are 'table 1' and 'table 2' versions of both roulette and blackjack. For any of you who aren't familiar with Microgaming, the 'table 1' is always the normal version of the game and we advise beginners to stick to this table whilst they learn some of the tricks of the trade. 'Table 2' has a higher minimum bet and therefore a much higher maximum bet, this is great for those of you 'old hats' who want to have a go at bringing the house down but be warned that you'll need a fairly hefty bank roll to play at this table!!

There has always been a significant difference between playing blackjack in a land-based casino to sitting at the virtual tables of the online casinos. Certainly in the past and still at most online casinos you are unable to bet on more than a single hand at once. 7 Sultans offer 'Multi-Hand BlackJack' which enables you to play up to 5 hands of blackjack simultaneously. This is our favourite way to play blackjack because it allows you to minimise your losses by using some of your hands to 'protect' the hands that are carrying a large wager.

7 Sultans is part of the Fortune Lounge casino group who are well known for offering great promotions and very generous start-up bonuses. 7 Sultans Casino is no exception to this and we've enjoyed every aspect of gambling with them. The huge stock of games and friendly customer service has kept us coming back to them time and again.

  1. As per normal poker rules - playing and betting proceeds in a clockwise direction.

  2. The two Players to the left of the Dealer post the blind bets.

  3. Small Blind (the Player who sits left of the Dealer) bets half the lower limit.

  4. Big Blind (the Player who sits left of the Small Blind) bets equal to the lower limit.

  5. Betting increments in the game determine the blinds. In a game of $2 and $4 betting increments, the small blind is $1, and the big blind is $2.

  6. The blind bets in Omaha Hi-Lo are considered as active bets, and therefore, Players have the option to check, fold, call, and raise when the betting action returns to their position. (Exception to first round betting) First round betting - options are to fold, bet, or raise. Only one bet, and three raises per Player are allowed on the first round. Players cannot "check" in the first round, as Blinds are bets, and not antes.

  7. Second and subsequent betting rounds - options are to check, fold, bet, or raise.

  8. All bets must be placed in conjunction with the game's betting increments.

  9. There are four possible betting rounds in Omaha Hi-Lo poker. Each bet and raise during the first two rounds is set at the lower limit of the stakes structure, and for the last two rounds at a higher limit structure. For example in a $1/$2 Omaha Hi-Lo game, all bets and raises are $1 for the first two rounds (after pocket cards are dealt and after the flop) All bets and raises are $2 for the last two rounds (after the turn and after the river), following accepted poker rules.

  10. The maximum allowable number of bets per Player during any betting round in Omaha Hi-Lo poker is four. This includes a (1) bet, (2) raise, (3) re-raise, and (4) cap. The term cap is used to describe the 3rd raise in a round since betting is then capped and can't be raised further. Once capped, Players will have only the option of calling or folding.

  11. In betting rounds where Players have folded, the first active Player left of the Disc/Dealer is first to act.

  12. To ensure fairness for all online poker Players - new Players entering the Omaha Hi-Lo game will be required to post the equivalent of the big blind. All Players have the option of sitting out and waiting for the actual big blind before starting play.

  13. By preventing Players from constantly entering poker games in a late position and leaving before they're required to post, these rules stop potential abuse of the online environment.
