The Chip Selector is located on the edge of the table, and will allow you to select the value of the chips you are betting. At any given time, the chip that is currently selected will look bigger than the others. To select a chip type, click on it; any bets you place will use chips of the value you have selected, until you select a different one.
You are free to mix chips of whatever denomination you choose, although there is a limit to how much you can bet on a single game. Your limit will depend on your accounts profile. A new player will normally have a limit of 100 credits per bet.
Note: If there are active arrow buttons by your chip selector, you can click on them to access additional chips of different values. If not, you are limited to the chip values you can see.
The betting zones are the areas of the screen where you can place bets. Simply click on the zone (or zones) that you want to bet on, and a chip of the value currently selected will be added to that zone. You can repeat this process with the same or different chip types, until you have completed your bet. For clarity, low denomination chips will be changed into larger ones, so that the amount bet on each zone will be represented by the smallest possible number of chips.
E.g. Betting 7 x 1-Credit chips will be displayed on the table as a 5-Credit chip and a 2-Credit chip.
The betting zones you can use are always the ones in the centre of the screen. If you place too many chips, either right-click on the chip-stack to reduce it (the bet will be reduced by the value of the chip currently selected in the Chip Selector), or click on the Clear button and start again.
Banker. Betting on the Banker zone is a bet that the Banker’s cards will beat the player’s cards. If you win a bet on the Banker, you win an amount equal to the number of chips you bet on it, minus a 5% commission payment. You cannot bet on both the Banker and the Player zones in a single game.
Player. Betting on the Player is a bet that the Player’s cards will beat the Banker’s. The winning amount is the same as the bet you placed on it, but unlike bets on the Banker, wins are not subject to the commission payment. You cannot bet on both the Player and the Banker zones at the same time.
Tie. Betting on the Tie zone is a bet
that the scores of the Player and the Banker will be equal. If you
win a bet on Tie, you win at odds of 8 to 1. I.e. you win 8 times
the amount you bet, plus your original stake back.
If you bet on Tie, you may also place a bet on either Player or Banker at the same time.
The buttons, on the edge of the table, towards the right hand side of the screen, provide all the controls needed for the game other than for the initial placement of chips.
Once you have laid your bets and clicked on the Deal button, the cards are dealt from the card shoe on the right, into the middle of the table. Two cards to each position are dealt, in the order; to Player, then Banker, then Player, then Banker. The cards and the scores are displayed there.
