Wheel of Madness

A bonus wheel on the Blackjack table, this side bet gives a special bonus if the player is dealt a natural Blackjack. The optional side bet is from $1 up to $10.

Plus, there is an Ante Bonus and a 6 card bonus bet for added excitement.

Let It Ride

Let It Ride

Players make three equal bets and receive three cards that will be combined with two community cards to create a five-card poker hand. After seeing their first three cards, players may withdraw their first bet or may "Let It Ride". The dealer then reveals the first community card and players can withdraw their second wager or "Let It Ride". Once each player has made their second wager decision, the dealer reveals the final community card and pays any winning payouts.

A variation of the Asian game Pai Gow Tiles using cards. A player is dealt 7 cards and must create two poker hands, High Hand (5 cards) and Low Hand (2 cards). The House will turn over their hand and create two hands using set rules called the 'House Way'. To win, a player must beat both house hands, if a player beats one but not the other then the hand is a push (nothing won or lost).

Texas Hold'em

In Texas Hold'em, players are dealt two face-down cards. Afterwards, each player gets a chance to exercise his betting options. Next, three cards are dealt simultaneously on the table for all players to share. This is called the flop, and it is followed by another round of betting. A fourth card, called the turn, is then dealt, and it too is followed by a round of betting. One final community card called the river is dealt followed by a final round of betting. When all bets have concluded, there is a showdown, in which the highest ranking hand in play wins the pot.
