Blackjack!
This game is a staple standard among any true casino, the rules of the game are simple, the player and the house will be dealt two cards, one card revealed and the other hidden. The goal is to get as close to 21, or perfectly on the number as possible, the player will declare hit or hold based off the numbers they possess, after they decide to hold, the house will return the favor! Hitting or holding their cards. At the end, whoever is closer will earn the payout! Payout Rules are found under this section!

Payouts

If the player and dealer have equal unbusted totals the hand is considered a push and the player's bet is returned.

If a player wins a hand they are paid out at 1:1 on the total bet wagered on that hand. For example if the player wagered 10r and then doubled down placing a further bet of 10r on the hand and won, they would be paid a total of 40r, their 20r bet back and 20r winnings.

If the player has Blackjack they are paid at 3:2, so that a wager of 10r the player would be paid a total of 25r, their 10r bet back plus 15r winnings.

If the player has placed the Insurance bet and the dealer has Blackjack, the player's hand loses but the Insurance bet is paid out at 2:1. So if the player had bet 10 on the hand and 5r on the Insurance bet, they would lose the 10 and be paid a total of 15r – their 5r Insurance bet returned and 10r winnings. This effectively results in a push overall for the hand

The next game offered is a poker game! Though this game is different from the others in the Casino, as it is meant to be played with a group rather than against or with the house, as such it is best you bring your friends along for this game, or an enemy you wish to take that wonderful coin from! The rules and pairings are below, and of course, the pay out is based off what the players bet!


Poker CARD VALUES/SCORING

While Poker is played in innumerable forms, a player who understands the values of the Poker hands and the principles of betting can play without difficulty in any type of Poker game. Except in a few versions of the game, a Poker hand consists of five cards. The various combinations of Poker hands rank from five of a kind (the highest) to no pair or nothing (the lowest):

Five of a Kind – This is the highest possible hand and can occur only in games where at least one card is wild, such as a joker, the two one-eyed jacks, or the four deuces. Examples of five of a kind would be four 10s and a wild card or two queens and three wild cards.

Straight Flush – This is the highest possible hand when only the standard pack is used, and there are no wild cards. A straight flush consists of five cards of the same suit in sequence, such as 10, 9, 8, 7, 6 of hearts. The highest-ranking straight flush is the A, K, Q, J, and 10 of one suit, and this combination has a special name: a royal flush or a royal straight flush. The odds on being dealt this hand are 1 in almost 650,000.

Four of a Kind – This is the next highest hand, and it ranks just below a straight flush. An example is four aces or four 3s. It does not matter what the fifth, unmatched card is.

Full House – This colorful hand is made up of three cards of one rank and two cards of another rank, such as three 8s and two 4s, or three aces and two 6s.

Flush – Five cards, all of the same suit, but not all in sequence, is a flush. An example is Q, 10, 7, 6, and 2 of clubs.

Straight – Five cards in sequence, but not all of the same suit is a straight. An example is 9♥, 8♣, 7♠, 6♦, 5♥.

Three of a Kind – This combination contains three cards of the same rank, and the other two cards each of a different rank, such as three jacks, a seven, and a four.

Two Pairs – This hand contains a pair of one rank and another pair of a different rank, plus any fifth card of a different rank, such as Q, Q, 7, 7, 4.

One Pair – This frequent combination contains just one pair with the other three cards being of different rank. An example is 10, 10, K, 4, 3.

No Pair – This very common hand contains "nothing." None of the five cards pair up, nor are all five cards of the same suit or consecutive in rank. When more than one player has no pair, the hands are rated by the highest card each hand contains, so that an ace-high hand beats a king-high hand, and so on.

Two hands that are identical, card for card, are tied since the suits have no relative rank in Poker. In such a case, the tied players split the pot. Note that if two hands contain the same high pair, then the ranking of the next card in the hands determines which one wins. For example: 9, 9, 7, 4, 2 beats 9, 9, 5, 3, 2. Likewise, two hands that have identical pairs would be decided by the fifth card. For example: Q, Q, 6, 6, J beats Q, Q, 6, 6, 10.

House terms for poker!
The Joker is a wild card. And will be numbers 53/54 for the roll purpose.
The River will be dealt by the house, as to prevent any cheating, and will affect the players hands as per typical rules.

Lastly is the game of our house, The Rousseau Roulette, this game will more often than others become the hot seat! A term we use here, that essentially means winnings will be raised drastically on this game! The Roulette rules and play are as follows!


Rules of Roulette

A roulette wheel consists of a spinning disk with divisions around its edge that revolves around the base of a bowl. A ball is spun around the outside of the bowl until eventually ball and wheel come to rest with the ball in one of the divisions.



The divisions around the wheel are numbered from 1 to 36 in a seemingly random pattern and alternate red and black. Additionally, there is a green division numbered 0. On American tables only there is a second extra green division marked 00 and it is largely this that makes the American version of Roulette a worse proposition financially than the European game.



Prior to rolling the ball, people place bets on what number will come up by laying down chips on a betting mat, the precise location of the chips indicating the bet being made. Roulette is a game of French origin and on a traditional table, the French terms on the betting area are still used even in English speaking areas. However, on most US tables, English terms and a slightly different style of mat are used.

Roulette Bets
Evens


    • Red / Rouge: a red number
    • Black / Noir: a black number
    • Even / Pair: an even number
    • Odd / Impair: an odd number
    • Low bet / Manque: numbers 1 - 18 (Manque is French for "failed" and is used because the ball has failed to pass 18)
    • High bet / Passe: numbers 19 - 36 (Passe is so named because it has "passed" the centrepoint)

2 to 1


    • First dozen / Premiere douzaine: numbers 1 - 12 (On the French-style mat, the square marked 12P)
    • Middle dozen / Moyenne douzaine: numbers 13 - 24 (On the French-style mat, the square marked 12M)
    • Last dozen / Dernier douzaine: numbers 25 - 36 (On the French-style mat, the square marked 12D)
    • Column bet / Colonne: a column of 12 numbers (The special square at the end of one of the three columns of twelve numbers)
Longer Odds


    • 5 to 1 - Line bet / Sixain: 6 numbers (Place the stake on the intersection of the edge of two rows of three numbers to bet on those 2 rows)
    • 8 to 1 - Corner bet / Carre: 4 numbers (Place the stake at the intersection of a square of four numbers)
    • 11 to 1 - Street bet / Carre simple or Transversale: a row of 3 numbers (Half way over the line forming the end of the row of three numbers to be bet upon)
    • 17 to 1: Split bet / En Chaval: a pair of numbers (Place the stake across the line dividing the two numbers to be bet upon
    • 35 to 1: Straight up / En plein: a single number (Place the stake in the box showing the number concerned. It is allowable to bet on zero)
-Rule of the Pair and Manuque, There are 2 spaces on the roulette wheel that have 0, and 00. If the ball from the roulette table lands on either of these spaces, all bets on the table are lost and go to the house. But if it lands on the 00 the bets will be held for the next spin of the wheel, if someone wins the next bet on the wheel, their current winnings, and all held winnings will be dispensed. Resulting in a massive payout.
All bets on Roulette will be paid at a 1:1 ratio by default, but can be changed based off the amount of players and payout available. The Rousseau Roulettes head of house can call it the hot table, raising bet payouts to 4:1 if the situation fits.

The Rousseau Roulette also has a bar, serving many drinks to sate all members of all cultures, as well as meals, though, the meals will be based off the chef present, so do always ask what the chef can serve and they will describe! The drink menu however is as follows!
