How to play Live Roulette
How to play Live Roulette
Roulette is played by spinning a small ball on a round wheel with 37 numbered slots.
When the wheel stops, the ball comes to rest in one of these slots. The objective is to correctly predict the slot in which the ball will land. The size of the payout depends on the type of bet placed.
Return to player: The optimal theoretical RTP is 97.30%.
Placing a Roulette bet
Select the chip value you want to use from the Chip Display.
Click on the appropriate betting area of the Roulette table.
Your combined stake for the round will be shown in the Total Bet display.
You can place more than one bet during a round.
Bets can be placed while the game-status indicator is green or yellow. They are automatically submitted when the red light appears and betting closes.
Once betting has closed, bets cannot be placed, changed, or cancelled.
Repeating and removing Roulette bets
Select Undo during green or yellow betting time to remove your most recently placed bet.
Select Undo repeatedly to remove bets one at a time in the order in which they were placed.
Select Repeat to repeat the bets placed during the previous round.
After selecting Repeat, the button changes to Double, allowing you to double the repeated bet if you have sufficient funds.
Roulette betting limits
If your combined stake is lower than the minimum table limit, a pop-up message will appear when betting closes and the bet will be rejected.
If a bet exceeds the maximum permitted limit, a tooltip will remind you of the maximum and the bet will not be placed.
The Bet Limits display shows the table’s minimum and maximum stakes. Select it to see a complete breakdown of the limits, where available.
Roulette bet types
The short lines containing three numbers are called rows. The longer lines containing 12 numbers are called columns.
Inside bets are placed directly on numbered spaces or on the lines between them. Outside bets are placed in the special boxes surrounding the numbered area.
When you move the pointer over the betting table, the numbers covered by that betting position are highlighted.

They can be accessed using the Special Bets icon and selected from the relevant text ladder or wheel map.

The ball has an equal chance of landing on any of the wheel’s 37 numbers. The numbers run from 0 to 36 in a non-sequential order. Numbers from 1 to 36 are red or black, while zero is green.
When the ball stops, laser-positioning sensors determine the winning number.

How to play Live Blackjack
How to play Live Blackjack
The aim of Blackjack is to beat the dealer by making a hand with a value closer to 21 than the dealer’s, without going over 21.
You can also win if the dealer’s hand exceeds 21, which is known as going bust. If your own hand goes above 21, you lose automatically.
This version of Blackjack is played with 8 decks of cards, which are shuffled by the dealer at regular intervals.
Getting started with Blackjack
Select a seat at the table. Seats are numbered from 1 to 7.
Click on any available seat displaying Sit Here.
Select your chip value from the Bank window.
Click directly on the table to place your bet.
Click Confirm in the Bank window before the timer runs out.
If you do not confirm your bet before the timer expires, the bet will be removed.
If a game is already in progress, wait for it to finish before you can play.
Dealing the Blackjack cards
When the round begins, each player receives two cards face up. The dealer also receives two cards, one face up and one face down.
Players take turns to act on their hands, beginning with the player on the right.
Blackjack card values
Card | Value |
Numbered cards from 2 to 10 | Face value |
Jacks, Queens, and Kings | 10 |
Ace | 1 or 11, whichever produces the best hand |
If your first two cards are an Ace and a card worth 10, you have Blackjack.
Blackjack pays 3 to 2 on the original stake. Other winning hands pay 1 to 1.
Blackjack player actions
When it is your turn, you will be presented with the following options:
Action | Description |
Stand | Take no further action on your hand |
Hit | Take another card to try to improve your hand; this can be used multiple times |
Double | Double your bet and receive one additional card only |
Split | Split two cards of equal value into two separate hands; an additional bet equal to the original bet is required |
Blackjack Split rules
If you split Aces, you receive only one additional card for each hand and cannot Hit.
A hand totalling 21 after a Split is not Blackjack because the cards were not the first two dealt. It therefore pays 1 to 1.
A hand cannot be split more than once.
Blackjack dealer rules
Once all players have acted, the dealer reveals their face-down card.
If the dealer’s hand is worth 16 or less, the dealer must take another card.
The dealer continues taking cards until the hand reaches 17 or higher.
If the dealer has a hand between 17 and 21, players whose hands are closer to 21 than the dealer’s are paid.
If the dealer goes bust, all remaining players are paid.
If your hand has the same value as the dealer’s, the round is a push or tie and your stake is returned.
Blackjack Insurance
If the dealer’s face-up card is an Ace, all players are offered an Insurance bet.
The Insurance bet is equal to half the player’s original stake.
If the dealer has Blackjack, the Insurance bet pays 2 to 1.
If the dealer does not have Blackjack, the Insurance bet is lost and the hands continue as normal.

How to play Live Baccarat
How to play Live Baccarat
In Baccarat, players bet on which of two hands—the Player or the Banker—will be closest in value to 9, or whether the hands will tie.
The game is played with 8 decks of cards, which are shuffled regularly by the dealer.
Baccarat card values
Card | Value |
Ace | 1 |
Face cards and tens | 0 |
All other cards | Face value |
If the total value of a hand is greater than 10, subtract 10 to obtain the Baccarat value.
For example:
8 + 8 = 16, which counts as 6.
Jack + 7 = 17, which counts as 7.
A two-card total of 9 is the best hand and is called a Natural. The second-best hand is a Natural 8.
If the Player and Banker hands are identical, the game ends in a Tie.
Placing a Baccarat bet
Select your chip value from the Bank window.
Click on the Player, Tie, or Banker area on the table.
Once the timer runs down, the dealer begins dealing the cards.
If a game is already in progress, wait for it to finish before placing a bet.
Dealing the Baccarat cards
The dealer deals two cards to the Player hand and two cards to the Banker hand.
If either hand has a value of 8 or 9, a Natural, the hand is complete and no additional cards are dealt. Otherwise, the third-card rules apply.
