While live games are becoming all the rave of online casinos, very few of them offer the amount of games or the gaming experience that LuckyLiveCasino.com. Upon signing into your account, you will see that you not only have the Roulette and BlackJack options that the other casinos have, but also games like Baccarat and Poker. Not only that, but the games are actually dealt at a live casino! Fitzwilliam Card Club is located in Dublin and is the home for all of the LuckyLiveCasino.com live games.
Basic Strategy BlackJack with Early Payout®
Like all live casino games, you are going to have to sign into your account and then click on the game that you want to play. In this case, click on the BlackJack icon and you will be taken to the game. You will be seated at a live table with a dealer from Fitzwilliam’s. Now while the game is technically played like regular Blackjack, there are some very interesting twists to it.
Click on the denomination of money that you wish to wager and then place it on the Bet portion of the table. Once the cards are dealt, you will have the option to continue to play the game according to the Basic Strategy of BlackJack or you can take the Early Payout option that is offered by the house. If you have a strong hand, for instance a KK, you will be offered a higher payout than say a 23. If you choose to pass on the payout, the game will be continued with Basic Strategy rules until the normal completion.
There is also an interesting side bet that is called DoppelGanger. For this wager you would have to place a chip in the area just above the Bet area on the table. This bet is decided on the first two cards that are dealt to the player and is based on card and suit. For instance, a pure DG is when you are dealt 10s10s, a colored DG is when you are dealt a 10s10c and a mixed DG is when you are dealt a 10s10d. Hitting this side bet can pay from 6:1 to a maximum of 25:1. For a full list of rules and payouts, see the game guide on LuckyLiveCasino.com.
Roulette
Roulette is a game that is very popular in European casinos and it quickly becoming one of the more popular games in online gaming. When you go to the game, you will see a live Roulette table for Fitzwilliam’s pop up on your screen and see your dealer and even live patrons that are wagering on the same table that you are.
Like any other game, you will have to move your cursor over the denomination that you wish to wager and place your bet on the betting board. Remember though, this is not a RNG game and you are on the same time limit that the players at the casino are on. If you do not get your bets in and confirmed before the croupier calls no bets, you will be locked out for that round. All payouts are identical to what they are at a live casino and will be added to your account for play immediately.
If you find that you place the same wagers for each spin of the wheel, you can save a little time by clicking the Re-Bet button. This will activate all of your bets from the previous round. If you make wagers by mistake, you have two ways of clearing them off of the table. You can hit the Clear button which will take everything off of the table or you can Right click on the bet that you want to remove and take just that one bet from the table.
You may also choose to just relocate some of your bets and you can do this by moving the cursor over top of your chips and pressing and holding the left mouse button. This will grab the chips and you can them move them to the new spot. Once they are over the bet that you want to make, let the button go and your bet will be placed.
Punto Banco Baccarat
Upon signing into the game, you will see your live table in the upper right hand corner along with a history board. The rest of the screen will be an electronic duplicate board that you will be placing your wagers on. While this is a computer image, it is mimics the live table that you are playing on. It is merely done this way so that you can place your bets and view the betting area better.
To place your bet, click on a denomination and place your bet on the player, tie or banker position. Remember, you are playing on a live table and must adhere to the timing of the dealer. Once the bets are placed, the game proceeds exactly as it would in a live casino. The dealer will deal two cards to the player and two cards to the dealer. Third card rules apply (full details are available on the game play section of the FAQ on the website) and then a winner is determined. If you bet on the player hand and win, you will be paid out with even money odds. If you win on the dealer hand, you will be paid out even money less a 5% commission to the house. If you selected a tie and you win, you will be paid off at 8:1 odds.
If you find that you have placed a bet in error, simply click on the clear button and it will be removed. If you only want to remove a portion of the bet, right click on the betting stack and the chips will be removed from the smallest denomination chip by chip. To move your bet from one position to the next, move the cursor over the bet that you would like to move and then click and hold the left mouse button. Hold the button down and move the stack to the position that you would like to have your bet moved to and then release the button. Your bet is now live on the new position.
Texas Hold’em Bonus Poker
As you will see on all lives games, upon signing in a dual screen will be shown to you. The upper right hand corner is the live feed from the casino and then rest of the table is a digital recreation of the live casino. This game is a little different from the poker in that you would play in the card room as you are playing against the dealer only and can also take part in the side bet for a bonus payout.
To begin the game, pick a denomination and place the chip in the Ante position of the table. You may also make a Bonus Bet at this time (see table for all bonus payouts). Once the hole cards are dealt out, you will have the option to bet or fold. If you choose to more forward, click on the Bet button and a wager for twice the amount of your Ante bet will be placed.
The flop cards will then be dealt and you will have the option to place a wager equal to your Ante bet. If you do not wish to place this wager, your hand is still live, just click the Check button. The dealer will then place the turn card and you will have the same option. After the bets are placed or checked, the dealer will place the river card and all winnings will be paid out.
Remember, you are playing heads up against the dealer in this game and as long as you pay to see the flop, you are live until the hand completes. If you win the hand and you have less than a flush or higher, your ante bet will be a push bet and returned to you with no additional payoff. If this happens, you will only be paid on the extra bets that you made after the hole cards were dealt.
If you find that you placed too many chips in either the Ante or Bonus spots, you may remove them by moving the cursor over the chips and using the right click button. Tap it once for every chip that you wish to remove. If you want to remove the entire bet, cover the chips with the cursor and press and hold the right mouse button. Move the chips off the table and let go. They will then be returned to your normal betting stack.
Poker
This is a game that you will see in very few online casinos that feature live games and is one of the reasons why LuckyLiveCasino.com is so successful. With their live feed, they can offer any game a casino has and have a greater selection that just about every other live online casino. Again though, keep in mind that you are playing against a live dealer, not a table full of players.
The game will start with you placing your bet in the Ante spot. Once that has happened, the dealer will deal out 4 up cards and one card face down. This is what is known as the Exchange Card. Both the dealer and player will have their hand and the first round of betting begins. At this stage, you can either bet or use the Exchange option. Remember, the only card that you may exchange is the face down card. If you use the Exchange, your Ante bet will be matched on the table and deducted from your account. Once you have done this or passed on the Exchange and wish to continue, click the Bet button and a bet for double the amount of your Ante bet will go into the Bet box.
From this point, it is up to the dealer to open. However, the dealer can only open with a hand that consists of AK or higher. If the dealer cannot open, your ante bet will be paid off and all other bets are considered a push and returned to you. If the dealer is able to open, the higher ranking hand wins. If you defeat the dealer, your hand will be paid off 1:1 on your ante and your back bets will be paid as follows:
One Pair 1:1
Two Pair 2:1
3 of a Kind 3:1
Straight 4:1
Flush 5:1
Full House 7:1
4 of a Kind 20:1
Straight Flush 50:1
Royal Flush 100:1
Any Exchange bet that was made to get additional cards will be returned and not paid off. It is merely a fee for exchanging the card and is lost of you do not defeat the dealer. All normal poker ranking apply.
Along with all of this other action that you have going on the table, there is also a Bonus Bet that can be made. To participate, you would need to place a €1 chip on the Bonus spot. Once the hands are dealt out, you will be paid the following bonuses on a straight or higher:
Straight = €50
Flush = €100
Full House = €200
4 of a Kind = €800
Straight Flush = €1500
Royal Flush = €5000
As you can see, LuckyLiveCasino.com has plenty of options for anyone who loves casino option. With the bonuses that they offer their players, you may never walk into a regular casino again!
