The online casinos have been very good at introducing new casino games for us to enjoy, many of which require no skill or experience to play and provide a quick and easy result. Most of the casino games which would fall into this category are of course variations of slots, in which there appear to be endless different themes and degrees of complexity at the various online casinos, but there are other games which are just as easy. The Bwin casino site for instance has a casino game which they call Red Dog, although some would know it as ‘between the sheets’, and it appears to be very popular among their customers. Red Dog is a very simple card game played with a standard 52 card deck which is shuffled between each hand, and is played against the house for predetermined stakes. The game starts with the player placing what is called an ante bet at least equal to the minimum table stake, after which three cards are dealt with two of them face up and the third face down and normally positioned between the open cards. A winning hand is simply one where the blind card has a value between the two open cards, and is normally paid at even money on the player’s stake. Before the blind card is revealed, the player has an opportunity to double the ante bet if there is a good chance of a winning hand, and this is the only decision which needs to be made. There are a couple of exceptions to the even money pay-out both of which depend on the values and spread of the two open cards. If the spread is 3 or less, there is much less chance of a winning hand so the pay-out is increased to reflect those odds, and is also possible that the two open cards are a pair in which case the only winning hand would be if the third card matches the first two. If it does the pay-out would normally be 11/1, a good return if your luck is in. There is also the chance that the two open cards are consecutive numbers, in which case a winning hand is impossible and the hand is void. Red Dog is quick, easy and great fun so why not try your luck.
