Disconnections

Communication problems over the Internet may cause sudden disconnections. We have designed our software to cope with such incidents in a manner that our clients will be protected from unjustifiable loss, while eliminating the possibility of intentional disconnections and/or system abuse.

Should a disconnection or timeout occur after the Player placed his/her bet and before the Player pressed the 'Deal' button, the Player's bet will be returned to his/her Balance.
  Should a disconnection or timeout occur after the Player pressed the 'Deal' button, the round will continue as if the Player had decided to 'Fold'.
After connection is re-established the Player can enter the "History" page and see the results of the last round ("History" is available for Money mode only).


Playing as Dealer

BeTheWinner Casino offers you the unique option of playing the role of the Dealer. This option increases your chances of winning, since you gain some of the favorable odds reserved for the casino. At the end of every round the casino takes a commission of 1.5% of the total bets bet against the Dealer.

Example

A Dealer chooses to play in Table III. This means that the Dealer meets the minimum requirements for playing in this table type: a minimum of 800 Dealer Points and a minimum balance of $420. The system then matches a Player to the Dealer and after the Dealer 'Approves' the next round, the Player places his/her bets on the table. Notice that the view of the table has changed to that of the Dealer's.

Let's say the Player places $300 and receives '9' and the Dealer's card is 'Q'. The Player loses his/her bet and since the bet against the Dealer was $300 the casino takes a commission of 1.5%*300 = $4.5, which means the Dealer wins 300-4.5 = $295.5 on this round. The casino's edge in Casino War with these rules is approximately 2.9% so as the Dealer you actually gain an edge of about 1.4%.

Minimum Dealer Points and Balance

You can play as Dealer once you have accumulated enough Dealer Points and in addition you need to have enough money in your Balance, according to the game's limits described in the Game Options page.
  The Minimum balance required is a bit higher than the total winnings of the Player in a given round, which are: (Maximum Bet) + 1.5%(Casino commission) * 2 * (Maximum Bet).

"Approve" Button / 'Auto-Approve' Feature

When playing as Dealer, before each round commences you must 'Approve' the next round. After you approve the round, the Player can place his/her bets and play the round. The 'Auto-Approve' feature lets you automatically approve the next rounds, without having to approve every round individually.

Disconnections

Communication problems over the Internet may cause sudden disconnections. We have designed our software to cope with such incidents in a manner that our clients will be protected from unjustifiable loss, while eliminating the possibility of intentional disconnections and/or system abuse.
  Should a disconnection occur after the Dealer pressed the Approve button, play will continue until the Player has finished his turn. This has no effect on the Dealer, since the Dealer is played automatically according to the rules of the game.
  After connection is re-established the Dealer can enter the History page and see the results of the last round (History is available for Money mode only).
