Caribbean Hold’em Poker
Caribbean Hold’em Poker is one of the newest online casino table games. It is becoming very popular because it is a game of skill where the player needs to make decisions and it offers high payouts including a progressive jackpot. Caribbean Hold’em is similar to Caribbean Stud Poker. In the Hold’em version you play against the casino using community cards instead of the normal stud version. The game is played using a standard 52-card deck. Both the player and the dealer make their best hand possible using both their two hole cards and the five community cards.
Before the game begins the player must make an ante bet. The dealer will then deal two cards face up to each player, two cards face down to the dealer and three community cards face up. These three cards are known as the flop. Each player then has the option to either fold their hand and surrender their ante or place a call bet twice the size of their ante bet. If there are any players two more community cards are dealt face up. These cards are known as the turn and the river cards. The hands are then compared. The object is to have a better five card poker hand than the dealer. The dealer must have at least a pair of fours for their hand to qualify. If the dealers hand does not qualify the player wins on the ante bet and the call bet is returned. The ante bet is paid out as follows:
Royal Flush pays 100 to 1
Straight Flush pays 20 to 1
Four of a Kind pays 10 to 1
Full House pays 3 to 1
Flush Pays 2 to 1
Straight and below pays 1 to 1
If the dealers hand qualifies and the dealers hand is better than the players hand the dealer wins and the player loses all bets. If the dealers hand qualifies and loses to the player, the player wins even money on the call bet and the ante bet pays based on the payout table. If the dealer and player end up with identical hands both the call and ante bets are a push and the player gets their money back.
Caribbean Hold 'Em also offers a progressive jackpot where an additional $1 bet makes you eligible to win part or the entire jackpot. The payout depends on the rank of the poker hand. Caribbean Hold 'Em progressive payouts are based on a five-card poker hand that is made using your two cards and the first three community cards. To be eligible for the progressive jackpot, click the coin slot before clicking Deal at an online casino or simply place a $1 chip in the progressive spot at a casino table. These jackpots can become sizeable especially when the game is linked between several casinos. Progressive bets are generally low percentage plays. This is also the case n Caribbean Hold’em. The house edge in Caribbean Hold’em is about 2%, but the house edge on the progressive is closer to 10%.

Video Poker
Video poker consists of several versions of 5 card draw poker and is played in land based and online casinos. In casinos it is played on a console and looks similar to a slot machine. Video poker is known to have good odds and can be played for hours for a relatively small investment. It is the perfect game for players who like a game of skill and the potential for large payouts combined with a low house edge. Video poker is similar to slot machines in that the player sits alone at a machine and can play at their own speed. Many slot players are intimidated by table games. These payers may not like when other players are critical of their strategies or speed.
Video poker began showing up in casinos in the 1970’s. This is around the same time as video games became popular. The combination of software and hardware that had been developed for video games was being adapted to build video poker machines. Video poker has become more advanced over the years and its popularity has grown.
There are now many variations of video poker. On some game consoles you can choose between several versions of video poker. Deuces wild, Jacks or Better, Bonus Poker, Double Bonus and multi-hand are the most popular. Each game pays out at different rates for winning hands. Payout tables list the payout rates for winning hands. These rates are posted at the beginning of each game and are not universal. They will vary from version to version as well as from machine to machine.
Most machines will allow the player to choose to play between one and five credits. Many times the largest payout, the royal flush, will pay a disproportionately high amount when the maximum amounts of coins are played. Some machines will also pay progressive jackpots for the maximum payout, so be careful to get the most value for your wager. Video poker is known as one of the highest paying games in the casino but this is only true when the payout table runs high. It is important to familiarize yourself with what are high payout rates and what are low payout rates. In traditional casinos the game can be funded using either cash or bar coded payout tickets from other casino games.
Once the game is funded play begins when the player places a bet of one or more credits and presses the deal button. Five cards are then dealt. The player has the option of discarding any or all of their cards and receiving new ones. The game will then pay out on winning hands based on the posted pay out table. Video poker shares the same hand rankings with the table version of the game. It is one of the few games where the player can gain a statistical advantage over the casino. By looking for the highest paying payout tables and playing perfect strategy a player can gain a slight advantage. When match bonuses are factored in at online casinos the advantage can actually become substantial.

Online Casino Gambling Strategy
All online casinos have a mathematical advantage and should always win over time. Individual players may win but the greater the overall volume of betting the better the chances for the online casino. People are always coming up with systems and strategies that they believe will give the edge that they are looking for. Over the long run no betting system will allow you to beat the casino. The house has too great an edge and compensates for weaknesses. If someone did come up with a true working system no one else would find out about it. There are some online gambling systems that are widely used and they do have some validity as far as extending your bankroll. This is true for both land based and online casinos. The most widely recognized of these strategies is the Martingale betting system.
The doubling strategy or Martingale system is a popular system. It is sometimes known as a reverse regression or loser's strategy. This system is played in even money games such as roulette or blackjack where the player doubles his money when he wins. In these systems a gambler doubles his bet after each loss. With this strategy a win would erase the losses of all previous games plus win the gambler back his original stake. Since a gambler with infinite money would eventually win this system is sometimes thought of as a sure thing. Over time this system will in fact bankrupt the gambler because no gambler possesses infinite wealth and the bets grow exponentially. Extended losing streaks will quickly wipe away all profits. After the sixth consecutive loss the gambler would need to bet 128 times his original stake or $640 in order to win back his previous bets on a five dollar original bet. It is thought that betting limits at tables are used to control this system. These limits are actually in place to protect the casino from large losses on a hot run.
Use online roulette as an even money game. In roulette if you are betting only red or black, you will win 46% of the time. You will lose 54% of the time. The idea of the Martingale system is to overcome these odds. If you were betting just black or red you would eventually lose all of your money. Consistently doubling your bets will effectively wipe out several of these losses and move the odds into your favor. There is just a 10% chance of losing 3 rolls out of three. This would translate into losing three in a row. There is only a 1% chance of losing six out of six. This all makes sense as long as you don't hit that long run of losses.
No system will work over a long period of time. The cancellation betting system is also known as the Alembert system. It is a more complicated betting system that works as long as you win and lose the same amount of times in even money game. You will not win a lot using this system but you will play for a long time.

Play Bingo Online
Online casinos now offer bingo. Bingo is a fun and simple game of chance that is often played for high stakes. The object is to create a pattern of numbers by marking the numbers on a card that are announced by a caller. These numbers are drawn randomly from a hopper containing 75 ping pong balls with numbers on them.
Bingo is completely random and you cannot improve your chances on a single draw. There really is not any skill involved in bingo. The odds of winning a large jackpot in bingo are better than winning the jackpot at an online gambling casino or winning the lottery. There is no reason to study which numbers come up more often or which ones tend to come up in bunches. Bingo cards are distributed randomly so there is no way of controlling the numbers that you will receive. This is the case in both live bingo and online bingo. The only skill involved is covering your numbers. If you play online you don’t even have to cover them as this done for you. Bingo is really a game of pure luck.
The only real way to increase your chances is to buy more bingo cards. This strategy works fine online gambling but can really hurt your odds in live bingo. If you play too many cards and you cannot keep track you may miss some numbers. If you miss just one number you have lost all the advantage that you gained playing the extra cards. Still the extra cards are a great advantage. In a truly random game like bingo the player with the most cards should win the most often. In some games all players are only allowed to play the same number of cards. This way no single player has an advantage over the other players.
The odds of winning depend on the total number of cards sold. The more players there are the smaller the odds of winning. The flip side is that the more players there are the larger the pots will be. You also must consider that the house also takes a cut. This means that the odds are always against you no matter how many cards you have or how many players there are.
In most bingo halls the early games have smaller jackpots. In these games you will also not have to cover as many numbers to win. As the night progresses the jackpots increase until the final giant jackpot of the evening. This is done for several reasons all of them have to do with the house making as much money as possible. Some players have not yet arrived for the early games so the later the big games the more players there are to buy tickets. The players who are ahead for the evening tend to spend more money. Tickets for the final game cost more money and are sold all night waiting increases sales. Make sure you do not go through all of your money early or you will not be around for the jackpot at the end of the evening.
