 Play Roulette at CasinoFortune.com

Never played the game? No worries - here are the basic tenets of the game:

  • Roulette consists of a wheel with 38 numbered slots, numbered 1 to 36, 0 and 00.
  • Players place bets on the layout with numbered red and black spaces that correspond to the numbers on the wheel as well as spaces for odd and even numbers
  • The order of play begins when the croupier (dealer) rolls a small ball along a track into the roulette wheel
  • You may place bets even after the ball has been begun to roll around the track of the wheel; however you should make your bets before the ball drops from the outside track into the center of the wheel
  • The croupier will say “no more bets” when it is time to stop placing bets on numbers or colors
  • Once the ball comes to rest, the croupier will call out the winning numbers and colors
  • Bets can include a single number (straight up bet), two numbers (split bet), three numbers (street bet), corner bet (chip placed at intersection of four numbers), five number bet and six number bet (line bet)

Beginner’s Guide to Black Jack

November 27th, 2007 by Casino Fortune

So you’re ready to join in the fun and try your hand at Black Jack - but you want to be sure you hone your card playing skills before you place a wager? You’ve come to the right place. Casino Fortune offers all your favorite games, including Black Jack absolutely free. Simply download the Playtech player and play as long as you want without placing any wagers- then when you’re ready to win, you can take advantage of welcome bonuses to get you started.

Black Jack
 
Here are a few tips to consider when playing Black Jack:

  • Your goal is to beat the dealer’s hand and reach 21 without going “bust”.
  • Numbered cards are considered “face value” whereas the value of an Ace card can be 1 or 11.
  • “Face” cards such as a Jack, Queen or King are valued at 10.
  • 21 is known as “Black Jack” a winning hand, comprised of a “face” card and an Ace.
  • Wagers must be made before the winning hand is played (even if only playing for fun).
  • There is no limit to how many “hits” you can take - additional cards from the dealer - but just make sure you don’t exceed 21!
  • When you don’t want any more cards - you “stand”.
  • You can “double down” your bet whenever you wish, but can only take a single hit when doing so.
  • If your first two cards are of the same rank, you can “split” the hand - using the two cards for separate hands and betting on them separately.

Now you know the basics of playing Black Jack - so let’s get started playing for fun! Visit www.casinofortune.com to download the free player today.

Celeb George Clooney’s Got Game - and Class

November 9th, 2007 by Casino Fortune

Oscar-winning heart throb and Ocean’s 13 star George Clooney is always game when it comes to making - or taking a bet. Whether it’s poker, one-on-one basketball or even a wager on his bachelorhood. Michelle Pfeiffer, who describes Clooney as a “handsome devil” currently has a $10,000 bet going with George that he will remarry longtime girlfriend Sarah Larson soon. 

George Clooney
 
Clooney also knows how to place a bet to make a positive difference.
 
Earlier this year, Cloooney played alongside his Ocean 13 stars Brad Pitt, Matt Damon and Don Cheedle in a World Series of Poker “Ante Up for Africa” benefit to raise money and awareness for the human rights crisis in the Darfur region of Sudan. Each player brought $5,000 to the table and was encouraged to donate 50% of their winnings to the Enough project and the International Rescue Committee - charities designated by the tournament because of their history of helping in Darfur, a region of Sudan that has been devastated by Civil War, leaving more than 500,000 people dead and 2 million displaced refugees. Clooney is also spearheading a fundraising effort for Not On Our Watch, which recently raised $9.2 million for the charity during this year’s Cannes Film Festival.
 
Guess classy old George is not such a cad after all…

November 2nd, 2007 by Casino Fortune

Tobey Maguire, star of the recent blockbuster Spiderman movies, has been recognized as one of the better poker stars in Hollywood. Recently Maguire won the $2,000 Phil Hellmuth Invitational for $95,480 and impressed Poker legend Phil Hellmuth enough to give a nod to the young Hollywood star, saying that Maguire shows “tremendous focus and determination” and even predicting that Tobey “will become one of the better poker stars.”

Tobey Macguire

So, does Tobey use his “Spidey sense” when playing charity tournaments? He has certainly woven an intricate web of victories, including the Hollywood Park Casino where he netted $186,000 at a $2,000 buy-in tournament, as well as snaring significant payouts at the esteemed World Poker Tournament and World Series of Poker.

Maguire is also known to host friendly poker games for high rollers at his Hollywood Hills home (step inside my parlor said the spider to the flies!), where players such as Dennis Hopper, Matthew Perry, Sharon Stone and Robert Downey Jr. are known to drop by.
