  • The initial welcome bonus is a 100% matching bonus with a minimum deposit of $20 and a maximum of $100.

Their drawings and competitions are as follows:

  • Super Saturday – Cash prize drawing every 30 minutes

  • Turbo Charged Tuesdays – Play Five Reel Drive and win.
  • Wild Wednesdays – Cash prize drawing every 30 minutes
  • Thursday Thunder – Play Thunderstruck Slots and win.
  • Blackjack Bonanza – Monthly tournament

The Casino Action group likes to keep some information close to their chest. On the Aztec Rewards page they mention loyalty points and state the following: "The more you play, the more we pay! Bonus points are paid out in units of 1,000. Redeem 1,000 points for $10 or redeem 5,000 points for $50! Our Silver, Gold and Platinum VIP members can redeem their Rewards at a higher rate - meaning more cash every week." This sounds wonderful but means nothing. How do players earn points? Are there games that are better for points than others? I have no idea, and their customer service reps aren't telling. This does not make the rewards program much of an incentive for me to join.

Tip #1: The one card placed faceup on the table indicates how many cards the dealer will burn. If the card turned up is a four of clubs, the dealer will burn four cards. Tip #2: In baccarat, the casino takes a commission whenever a player wins a bet placed on the banker side. This is because betting on the banker has an inherent 1.06 percent advantage. Bets are paid at 0.95-to-1. Tip #3: Twos through nines are counted at face value; tens and all jacks, queens and kings count as zero; and aces count as one. Suit is irrelevant in baccarat. Tip #4: First and third cards are dealt to the player. Second and fourth cards are dealt to the banker. Tip #5: For any total over nine, only the last digit is taken - for example, a total composed of a six of clubs and a six of diamonds is two. If either the player or the banker has a total of eight or nine, it's called a "natural" and automatically wins - unless the other hand also has a natural, in which case the two hands tie. Tip #6: If the player holds a total of less than six or seven, the player draws. Tip #7: With a total from zero to two the bank always draws; with a total of seven the bank always stands; with a total of three the bank draws, unless the player drew and its third card was an eight; with a total of four the bank draws, unless the player drew and its third card was an eight, nine or ace; with a five the bank draws, unless the player drew a third card outside the range of four through seven; with a six the bank stands, unless the player drew a third card of either a six or a seven.

Basic Rules of Play
The dice are tossed from one end of the crapstable to the other making sure that both dice bounce off of the back wall of thetable.

Moving in a clockwise direction, players take turns rolling the dice. TheShooter's first role is called the "Come Out" role. This Shootercontinues to role as long as he or she makes winning roles.

The "Come Out" role is very important in craps in that it establishesthe Shooter's "Point." "The Point" is the number that theShooter must role again before he or she roles a 7. A 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10establishes the point. Rolling a 7, 11, 2, 3 or 12 on the "Come Out"role results in the dice being passed to the next Shooter.

The Puck - This two-sided disc indicates whether or not a game is inprogress and if a "Point" has been established. The puck displays"OFF" and remains on the "Don't Come Bar" until a"Point" has been established by the shooter. The dealer then turns thepuck to the "ON" side and moves it to the numbered location on thecraps table to denote the "Point" number for this shooter.

Betting On Craps

Pass Line Bet - A simple and basic even money bet. You are betting thatthe first role of the dice will add up to 7 or 11. On this bet, a 2, 3, or 12loses the bet. Any other number establishes the "Point." The"Point" number has to be rolled again before a 7 comes up to win,otherwise, the bet is lost.

After everyone has put their minimum bet in the center of the table then the game will commence. The dealer will deal 5 cards faced down to each person. Everyone looks at their cards and you have to "call" to stay in the game, if you do not want to continue that you say "fold" and you will still lose your minimum bet. I recommend that you "call" first as you have nothing to lose. Then each person decides which cards you want to keep and which cards you want to throw away, that can be upto 5. Make sure you choose correctly which cards to discard as it is a huge part of the game. If you do not have anything at all then keep your highest card and throw the rest away. If you have a pair, keep them and discard the rest. If you have 4 cards to a straight or royal flush then go for it. The dealer will then give each player the same amount of cards that they discarded so that everyone now has 5 cards again. Hopefully, you will have been given some great cards which enables you to win . Then you go round the table saying whatever you want to do. Here are the three options :-

• Call - If you "call" it means that you do not want to raise anymore and that you have paid enough to stay in the game.
• Raise - If you "raise" then it means that you raise the bet by so much, a table can have a betting limit, but some do not. If you raise say $10, then everyone else on the table has to raise $10 also. If someone has raised before you then you must raise that amount before you raise any further. For instance Bob raised $50 before you, you put $80 in the pot, so therefore you have raised $30, Bob must put in $30 to stay in the game. Bob still may want to raise you even further if he is confident that he has a good enough hand.
• Fold - When you "fold" then you drop out of the game whatsoever, this should be done if you feel that the amount of money "raised" is not worth risking for the hand that you have. You will lose all chance of winning the pot but you do not have to add anything into the pot.

When all the raising is complete and everyone is happy everyone reveals their cards to each other and the pot is given to the winner. Here are all the way you can win ranked from highest to lowest :-
