What games does #1Dealer Casino Casino
offer?
|
| |
#1Dealer Casino Casino currently offers Blackjack, European Roulette (with
one zero), Slot Machines, Jacks or better Video Poker, Pai Gow Poker,
Caribbean Poker, War and Baccarat. We are constantly developing new games
and our players will receive a notification whenever a new game is
added.
|
|
What are Credit Points and how do
I gain them?
|
| |
Credit Points are our way of regulating the selection of Dealers.
Since playing as Dealer is optional and gives the player some of the
favorable odds reserved for the casino, we have to find a way of
determining who will be the Dealer. In Gambling to accumulate Credit Points
and play as Dealer, you must first play as Player and for every dollar you
bet, you accumulate one Credit Point. For example, a Player puts a bet of
$25 in Blackjack and decides to Double Down, having a total bet of $50 on
the Blackjack table. At the end of the round, regardless if the Player won
or lost he/she gains 50 Credit Points, and so forth. When playing as
Dealer, one Credit Point is deducted for every dollar bet against you.
Using the same example above, a Player puts a bet of $25 and decides to
Double Down, with a total bet of $50 on the Blackjack table. At the end of
the round, regardless if the Player won or lost, 50 Credit Points are
deducted from the Dealer.
Important Note: Credit Points are
assigned specifically to each game. That is why the number of Credit
Points in Roulette differs from the number of Credit Points in Blackjack,
etc. This is done because the odds for playing are different from game to
game.

|
How can I become the
Dealer?
|
| |
You can play as Dealer once you have accumulated enough Credit Points
(see separate explanation) and in addition you need to have enough money
in your balance, according to the game's limits described in the Game
Options page.
|
|
What is the difference between
playing against a Human dealer and playing against a System
dealer?
|
| |
#1Dealer Casino Casino offers the unique option of playing against either
a Human dealer or against a System dealer. A Human dealer is a player who
has accumulated enough Credit Points and has enough money in his/her
balance to withstand the Player's maximum winnings in a given round,
according to the game's limits. For example, a player wants to play as
Dealer in Blackjack. His current balance is $1432 and he has 550 Credit
Points. This means that the player qualifies to play as Dealer in Table I
(a minimum of 80 Credit Points and $80) and in Table II (a minimum of 200
Credit Points and $200), but the player does not qualify to be the Dealer
in Table III (a minimum of 1000 Credit Points and $1000), since he/she
does not have enough Credit Points.
A System dealer is actually a
computer that is serving as an automatic dealer of the casino. To ensure
that the performance of the System dealer is truly random, a Random Number
Generator (RNG) is utilized. Our casino uses the Lehmer RNG, which has
proved to provide absolute random results. Our system has been rigorously
tested by running millions of rounds and examining these results. We also
conduct periodic testing to ensure the integrity of the system.

|
How can I chat with the person I'm
playing with?
|
| |
You can chat with another player by using the small pop-up window that
opens whenever you play one of the games. Chat is available in Blackjack,
Roulette, Slot Machines, Video Poker, Pai Gow Poker, Caribbean Poker, War
and Baccarat. The Chat box is divided into two sections - In the upper
section you can read the messages sent to you and in the lower section you
can type in your messages. In Gambling to send a message simply type in your
text in the lower text box and press "Send".

What happens if I am suddenly
disconnected from your casino?
|
| |
Communication problems over the Internet may cause sudden
disconnections. We have designed our software to cope with such incidents
in a manner that our clients will be protected from unjustifiable loss,
while eliminating the possibility of intentional disconnections and/or
system abuse. After connection is re-established the player can enter the
"History" page and see the results of the last round ("History" is
available for Money mode only).

I got a System Message saying
"Time Out" and before I made my decisions / placed my bets I returned to
the Game Options page. Why is that?
|
| |
When you play in our casino you are playing with another player. In
Gambling to keep the game fluent and to prevent cases where one of the
players is holding up the game, we have set a time limit for placing a
bet. In every game there is a Timer that shows the player how much time is
left. If a player does not place a bet and makes a decision during this
time, the player will exit the game and will have to re-enter the game in
Gambling to play again. If a bet was placed on the table but the player did
not make a decision within the default time, the bet is returned to the
player's balance. The Timer differs from game to game as follows:
- Blackjack - 45 seconds.
- Roulette - 50 seconds.
- Slot Machines - 30 seconds.
- Video Poker - 40 seconds.
- Pai Gow Poker - 45 seconds.
- Caribbean Poker - 45 seconds.
- War - 45 seconds.
- Baccarat - 45 seconds.
These time limits give the player
plenty of time to place bets and make decisions. When playing as Dealer,
you also have a Timer set to 35 seconds. As Dealer you only need to
approve the next round.
