Surrender

If, after viewing your original two cards and the dealer's up card, you feel that your chances of winning the hand are not good, you will have the option to "surrender" the hand. If you choose to surrender, you will automatically lose half of your original wager; the other half will be returned to you. Play of the hand will cease, and the deck will be reshuffled.

NOTE: If the dealer was dealt a Blackjack, the "surrender" option will not be available.

Double Down If, after viewing your original two cards and the dealer's up card, you feel that your chances of winning the hand are good you can choose to double the amount of your original wager. You will be dealt exactly one additional card and play will pass to the dealer.

Split

If you are dealt two cards of the same value (8-8, A-A, 10-K, etc.), you may choose to split the cards into two separate hands. An additional wager equal to your original wager will be placed next to the additional hand.

A second card will be dealt to the first of the split hands. This hand will be played out, with all the normal options available (surrender, double down, etc.) When you have finished playing the first hand, the other split hand will then be dealt a second card and played out as usual.

NOTES: Only one split is allowed per deal.
NOTES: A split-hand Blackjack will pay off at 1:1 instead of 3:2

Insurance

Whenever the dealer's up card is an ace, the insurance option will be available. When you buy insurance, you are insuring yourself against the possibility that the dealer has a blackjack. Insurance is an additional wager equal to half of your original bet.

If the dealer has a Blackjack, the insurance will pay off at 2:1. Your original bet will be lost, unless you also have a Blackjack, in which case the hand will push.

If the dealer does not have a Blackjack, you will lose the insurance wager and the hand will be played out as usual.

If the shooter is winning, the dice are not passed on. The dice are only passed to the next player if the shooter sevens-out (rolls a seven) or decides not to continue rolling. In the Internet version of craps, the player loses if there is a seven-out and can end the game at any time provided there are no bets placed. Pass Line and Don't Pass Line bets are made on the shooter's "Come Out" roll. All other bets are placed after the come out, once a "point" has been determined, and work independent of the "pass line" and "don't pass" bets. 1) The Come Bet
Made any time after the initial "Come Out" roll when a shooter has a point to make, you win on the first roll of the come bet with a natural (7, 11) and lose on craps (2, 3, 12) Any other number that comes up is a come point. You win on a come bet if this number is rolled again before a 7. 2) The Don't Come Bet
Opposite of the come bet, except the 12 is a tie. Made any time after the initial "Come Out" roll when a shooter has a point to make, you lose on the first roll of the don't come bet with a natural (7, 11) and win on craps (2, 3) Any other number that comes up is a come point. You lose on a don't come bet if this number is rolled again before a 7. 3) Odds Bet
You can accompany your Pass Line, Come, Don't Pass, or Don't Come bet with an additional bet called an "odds bet". Once point has been established, the odds bet is popular because it pays "true odds" on your bet. True odds are based on comparing the chance of your number being rolled before the 7, are paid out accordingly. To illustrate, using the True Odds Chart, you can see that the 7's chance of coming up is twice that of the 4. When you place an odds bet on the four, it will pay 2 to 1, the true odds.

considered to be placed and received in Kahnawake Mohawk Territory, Canada, under the authority of the license issued by the Kahnawake
Gaming Commission. Kahnawake is the place of jurisdiction and performance / fulfillment." The validity of this statement is questionable. The
homepage for this company states that the service is completely legal. Only if the customer were to read the "Help" page would he or she see
this warning: "You should check your own laws on whether or not it is legal to bet in your area. "

Following the opening of an account, the user is ready to bet. Sports Interaction allows users to place bets on an almost endless number of
games, individual performances, and future occurrences. Games that can be wagered upon include: college and professional basketball,
professional baseball, college and professional football, professional hockey, amateur and professional soccer, cricket, and rugby. Bets can
also be placed upon individual sports like professional tennis, professional golf, horse racing, automobile racing, and professional boxing.
Further, the online bookmaker also allows users to place futures bets, which are not based upon a particular contest. A good example of a
futures wager would be placing a bet in February on who would win the World Series. All of these types of bets can be made simply by clicking
on the team in which the user thinks will win the game or "cover the spread" and then entering the amount the user wishes to wager.

The next step for the online gambler depends on the result of the event. If the gambler's bet was correct, an amount (that depends on the odds of
the occurrence) is credited to his or her account automatically. The customer can choose to leave this amount in the account for future bets or
request that a check be sent to their residence. If the bet is lost, obviously, the amount of the bet is simply deducted from the user's account.
