How to Bet
- The bet is placed by pressing the "Start" button, or any of the Bet buttons.
- Using the “Settings” button, the player accesses a screen where he can access the payment table and the help page, as well as manage:
- - The denomination;
- - the active winning lines (in case of games without fixed lines);
- - the bet amount.
If the player is using a desktop or laptop computer, the bet buttons can also be activated by using the following keyboard keys: "C", "V", "B", "N" and "M". Pressing "C" places the lowest bet, "V" the next bet and so on.
Fold Function
In case of winning, the player will be given the option to access the doubling bet round by pressing the “Double” button.
The Double Up feature is activated when the Double Up screen is open, the card in the middle of the screen is face down and flashing red and black. The “Available Double Up Attempts” sign shows the number of attempts the player has in this game. The “Bet Amount” sign shows the amount the player wants to double in the Double Up game. The “Bet to Win” sign shows the amount the player can win by matching the color of the card. There are two buttons to select from: “Red” and “Black”. Selecting “Black“ or “Red“ will move the card up the screen and save it to the history. The last five cards of the player’s session are saved in the History section.
If the player has matched the card colour, a new card appears in the centre of the screen and flashes again. The process continues until the player fails in his bet. The sequence of the cards is random and the player cannot predict the colour of the next card based on previous results. The total sum of the “Bet Amount” field is displayed in the “Profit” field. If the player wants to end the “Double” game, he has to press the “Collect” button. The screen closes and the amount of the “Profit” field is transferred to the “Balance” field.
If the player does not match the card color, the Double Up game ends and the player loses the bet amount. The screen closes. The amount in the “Win” field is lost and is not added to the balance.
The maximum winning amount that can be carried over to the Double Up round is determined in the Paytable.
The number of Double attempts is predefined and set per game. The maximum number of attempts can vary between 1 and 5 depending on the settings applied per game.
If the player is using a desktop or laptop computer, the "Red" and "Black" buttons can also be activated by pressing the arrow keys on the keyboard: "⇨“ for "Black" and "⇦“ for "Red".
