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 bets and before the Player pressed the 'Spin' button, the Player's bets will be returned to his/her Balance.
Should a disconnection or timeout occur after the Player placed his/her bets and pressed 'Spin' and before the ball landed on a number, the round will continue.
After connection is re-established the Player can enter the "History" page and see the results of the last round ("History" is available for Real Money mode only).
Playing as Croupier
BeTheWinner Casino offers you the unique option of playing the role of the Croupier. 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 Croupier.
Example
You choose to play in Table II. This means that you meet the minimum requirements for playing in this table type: a minimum of 850 Dealer Points and a minimum balance of $360. The system then matches a Player to you and after you 'Approve' the next round, the Player places his/her bets on the table.
Let's say the Player places $1 on "14", $5 on "23", $5 on the corner of "16,17,19,20" and $5 on "Red" for a total bet of $16. The Player spins the roulette and the number "7" comes out. The Player loses $11 on his inside number bets and wins $5 on his outside bet, since "7" is Red.
All in all, the Player loses 11-5 = $6. Since the total bet against Croupier was $16, the casino takes a commission of 1.5%*16 = $0.24, which means you win 6-0.24 = $5.76 on this round. The casino's edge over the player in Roulette is 2.7% so as the Croupier you actually gain an edge of 1.2%.
Minimum Dealer Points and Balance
You can play as Croupier 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.
"Approve" Button / 'Auto-Approve' Feature
When playing as Croupier, 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 Croupier pressed the 'Approve' button, play will continue until the Player has finished his turn. This has no effect on the Croupier, since the Croupier is played automatically according to the rules of the game.
After connection is re-established the Croupier can enter the History page and see the results of the last round (History is available for Real Money mode only).
