As a top-notch casino software provider, BetGames strives to raise the bar with every single game that it releases. Whether they are classic casino games or modern adaptations of ancient card games, BetGames boasts a game portfolio unlike any other, as you will see in the section below. Should you wish to play any of these games, feel free to visit LV BET to give them a whirl.
WHEEL OF FORTUNE
Some of the most popular types of games played throughout history are those involving a wheel, where each segment represents a possible bet. BetGames' live Wheel of Fortune doesn't stray too far from that concept. The live wheel consists of 19 different segments: numbers one through 18 and a cup symbol. Once the Wheel of Fortune live wheel stops spinning, a marker will indicate the winning segment, and the winning outcomes will be paid.
In Wheel of Fortune, players have almost one whole minute during each betting round to place their bets, which will be promptly added to their betting slip. When the betting time is finished, the payslip will get locked until the live wheel stops spinning and the winning segment is declared.
Wheel of Fortune offers a wide variety of different bets to choose from. Apart from the standard one through 18 bets, players could bet on the colour of the segment, the numerical range of the segment and whether the number will be odd or even.
As can be seen in Wheel of Fortune, there cannot be a simpler game that offers such a wide variety of betting options. The live dealer — or in this case, live host — only serves to add commentary and spin the wheel. Seeing as there is no Live Chat feature in Wheel of Fortune, players are unfortunately unable to communicate with one another or the dealer.
DICE DUEL
As we hop from one classic game to another, next on our list is Dice Duel. Dice games offer similar entertainment to that offered by Wheel of Fortune, since the action is straightforward and the betting rounds are relatively quick. Similar to Wheel of Fortune too is players' reliance on luck, since no skill is involved in Dice Duel.
The action is as uncomplicated as dice games can get. The betting round is roughly half a minute long, where players can choose from several bets relating to the two dice: one blue dice and another red dice. Once the betting round is over, the dealer throws both the red and blue dice and the winning bets are subsequently paid.
The bets are listed in four different categories: 'Main', 'Numbers', 'Odd/Even' and 'Totals'. Players can bet on the different outcomes of each individual dice, on whether the outcome will be odd or even, and they can also bet on the total sum of the two dice. Bets can be combined as the player wishes, since the betslip will clearly display each present and past bet. One of the most underrated advantages of BetGames' betslip is that clicking 'Bet history' will display all the past bets the player has made across all of BetGames' games, and not the bet history of just one game. This means that if a player has recently bet on Wheel of Fortune before playing Dice Duel, they can still view their past bets on Wheel of Fortune while playing Dice Duel.
ANDAR BAHAR
The game of Andar Bahar originated in Southern India and eventually spread to the Live Casinos of almost every well-known casino software provider in the market. BetGames' Andar Bahar features the same rules as the base game, except for some very small changes to shake things up.
The goal of the game is to successfully guess which side — Andar or Bahar — will be dealt the joker card, which is presented at the start of the game. If the joker card is black, the dealer deals the first card to Andar, whereas if the joker card is red, Bahar is dealt the first card. The dealer will then deal one card to each side in an alternating manner until either side is dealt a card with the same value.
Although there is only one betting round in Andar Bahar — lasting for around half a minute — there are several betting options to choose from. Players can bet on the number of cards dealt before the joker card appears, the suit of the joker card and the value of the joker card. Once the bets are placed, players are in for an edge-of-the-seat gaming experience.
LUCKY 5
Lucky 5 is the first of the three lottery games offered by BetGames. The user interface and relatively straightforward action make Lucky 5 a fairly simple game, which is played using 36 balls coloured white, green, blue and red. There are nine balls of each colour, numbered one to 36.
Five balls are drawn every five minutes, which makes Lucky 5 one of the slowest-paced games in BetGames' portfolio. Therefore, players have a total of four minutes of live betting at their disposal before the following betting round begins.
Although players won't see draws happening every minute, they do have a very wide variety of bets to choose from. Bets can be placed on the ball numbers, their colours and their total count. Each bet type is neatly categorised in four different rows: 'Numbers', 'White Balls', 'Green Balls', 'Red Balls', 'Blue Balls' and 'Different Colours'. Once the bets are placed and the balls are drawn, the betting slip will detail whether the bets are successful or not, as well as the amount paid.
LUCKY 6
Lucky 6 has a lot in common with Lucky 5, although there certainly are differences between the two that players might consider determining factors. First off, Lucky 6 features a total of 60 balls, from which six are drawn every five minutes. Interestingly, Lucky 6's game rounds are scheduled to avoid conflicting with the game rounds of Lucky 5 and Lucky 7, which allows players to play other games if their multitasking skills permit.
Half the balls are red, and they are numbered from zero to nine, whereas the other half are blue with the same numerical pattern. This means that there are three sets of red balls and three sets of blue balls. Players can bet on the ball numbers, their total count and whether they are odd or even.
LUCKY 7
The last of BetGames' lottery games is Lucky 7, where players must guess which seven balls of a total of 42 will be drawn. The 21 even-numbered balls are yellow, whereas the 21 odd-numbered balls are black.
Essentially, Lucky 7 isn't too different from its predecessors (Lucky 5 and Lucky 6). Draws happen once every five minutes, and the betting options are virtually the same, save for the colour exception.
SPEEDY 7
By now, it must be somewhat apparent that BetGames has developed several games that are both simple and quick to grasp. At the top of that list is Speedy 7, a game played with a deck of 52 cards. Players must simply bet on whether the next card dealt will be red or black. Speedy 7 offers multiple betting rounds, and if a player doesn't join at the beginning of the round, they can still bet while each round progresses.
Although players can only bet on the colour of the upcoming card, Speedy 7's betting system is quite interesting. Successful bets can either be cashed out or they can be used to accumulate better payouts. Therefore, winning streaks pay very well, and bonuses are granted if players correctly predict the result of four or even seven cards.
The payouts start off at 1:1.90, but this changes depending on the player's success. This places the game's Return to Player (RTP) at 95%.
6+ POKER
BetGames saved its innovation for this Texas hold'em poker variant, which is played with a 36-card deck. The small deck, thus, excludes cards two through five, which makes six the lowest card. This means that it is more probable that players will see big hands in 6+ Poker.
This is a very significant change to standard Texas hold'em. In 6+ Poker, the ace can be used to form a straight — for example, ace, eight, nine, 10, jack. Furthermore, a flush beats a full house, and a three of a kind beats a straight.
There are five rounds of betting in 6+ Poker: one before the start of the game, one after the player's hand and the dealer's hand are dealt, one after the flop, one after the turn and one after the river. The player's hand is dealt face up, whereas the dealer's hand is dealt face down. This makes for a very immersive poker experience since the player must make their decision based on both their own hand and the dealer's hand.
All in all, 6+ Poker really succeeds in shifting the paradigm of poker while still creating action-packed moments that players can bet on.
WAR OF BETS
War of Bets is remarkable for two things: the oversized cards and the sheer simplicity of the game itself. The two sides — the Player and the Dealer — face off by being dealt one card each. Whichever side is dealt the highest-value card wins the round. If both cards are of the same value, the round is declared a 'War' and both the Player and Dealer will lose. Unfortunately, nothing else happens if a round is declared a War.
There are only two betting rounds in War of Bets: one before the round begins and one after the first card is dealt. The Player is dealt a card first, and after the second betting round is complete, the Dealer is dealt second.
Apart from the main bets, War of Bets also offers bets on the colour, suit and value of the cards drawn. This way, although War of Bets can be thought of as a watered-down version of baccarat or Punto Banco, it remains quite an interesting head-to-head encounter with more than a few bets to go around.
BET ON POKER
Last but not least, Bet on Poker is a worthy entry to the world of casino games. Bet on Poker features six different playing positions which participate in the game independently of one another. The player's goal isn't to control the hands but to determine which of the six hands will be the winner.
There are four betting rounds in Bet on Poker: one before the cards are dealt, one after each position gets a hand, one after the flop and the one after the turn. Ample betting time is granted for the players to effectively analyse each hand and its overall likelihood of winning. Having said that, BetGames did not include a list of the poker hand rankings for players to consult, which means that prior research is necessary.
Bet on Poker offers the least number of betting options among BetGames' products. Players can only bet on the potential hand combinations, which become greyed out when they are no longer possible throughout the round.
