To play Roulette, you place bets on various areas of the board. You can

as even or odd numbers, only the numbers shown in a column on
which you've placed your bets, groups of numbers clustered around a
point on the betting table, etc.). When the betting is complete, the wheel
spins and the winning number emerges. If you win, your earnings reflect the
odds against which you bet. The greater the odds, the better your earnings if
you win.

Player 1 places his bets first. Use the Directional pad to move the cursor to

Blackjack

In Blackjack, each player plays against the house. Players try to
achieve a value in cards (face cards are worth 10 points, and an Ace is
worth 1 or 11) as close to (but not greater than) 21 as possible. If you beat
the house's hand, you win.

Player 1 goes first. To place a bet press the X button and continue pressing it
until you are satisfied with your bet. When you are done betting, move to the
NEXT card and press the X button to get to Player 2.

Player 2 then places his bets. When done, move to the NEXT card and press
the X button to start the game.
Each player is dealt cards and the
game reports the value of the
current player's cards. If a player
gets 21 points in cards at any time
during the game, his turn is
automatically over and he wins.
Further, if at any time a player's
cards exceed 21 points in value, he
goes bust and automatically loses.

When it is your turn, use the
Directional pad to select STAND (take no more cards), HIT (get another
card) DOUBLE DOWN (double your bet and take only one more card), or
SPLIT (divide a pair and play as two separate hands); the last two
options are only allowed after your initial two cards are dealt.

13

Press the X button when you have made your choice. If you chose
HIT, you can then select HIT again or STAND (if you haven't gone
bust). This continues until you STAND, go bust or you reach a value of
21 points in cards. The game is then played out until it is done. You can
then start a new game.

To leave this game, use the Directional pad to select the LEAVE GAME card and
press the X button.

For further instruction on how to play Blackjack, view the tutorial located at the
Signpost.

Craps

In Craps, one player (the shooter) rolls the dice and all players, including the
shooter get to place bets on the outcome. On the first roll, a result of 7 or 11 is
an automatic win; a result of 2, 3, or
12 is an automatic loss, and all other
results are called "points." If the first
roll results in a point, the shooter
continues to roll until the dice give a
value of 7 (the house wins) or the value
of the point made on the first roll (the
shooter wins). A variety of bets on
the outcome can be made before
all rolls. For example, you can
place a bet that the result of the
next roll will be a 4.

14

In Craps, if you wish to roll the dice, select the PICK UP card and
I press the X button. You must then either bet that you will win (the
Pass Line) or that you will lose (Don't Pass Bar). You may then place
other bets. Other players can place any bets they wish. If you do not
wish to roll, select NEXT instead and press the X button. Once a player
has picked up the dice, bets can be placed. Select the result on which you
wish to bet by using the Directional pad; then press the X button. You can
increase the size of a particular bet by pressing the X button repeatedly. You
may place as many bets as you like (but you can't select both the Pass Line
and Don't Pass Bar). When a player is done placing bets, select the NEXT
card and press the X button. The next player then places his bets.

When players are done placing bets, select the NEXT card and press the X
button until (or unless) you are asked to roll the dice. If you are to roll, select ROLL
and press the X button. Depending on the results, the game may be over. You can
then start a new game. If the shooter has not won or lost, new bets can be
placed, or old bets altered, before rolling the dice again. To leave at any time,
use the Directional pad to select the LEAVE GAME card and press the X
button.
