Sic Bo, meaning "dice pair" is an ancient Chinese gambling game. It is very popular in Macau, in my estimation second to only baccarat. In the United States is often found in the Asian gaming rooms, especially in Atlantic City. The large Las Vegas properties will usually have one table in the general casino.This free online casino game uses three dice and a table with a variety of betting options on the roll of those dice. The odds and table layout may also vary from place to place. However, the payoffs are the same across Atlantic City and Macau, but different from each other. In Vegas and on the online casinos, anything is possible.

Ricochet is a free online gambling dice game formerly found at the Fiesta Henderson. Some says it was removed in July 2006. The game uses three dice and is played on a small table with chairs. Many bets are available in casino web sites, some that resolve in one roll, and other may take several. I have had to make up some terminology to explain this game, which may not be consistent with what the owners intended.
Rules
As in craps players take turns shooting the dice. Unlike craps there is no point or come out roll. The shooter will roll until he rolls any of the following combinations: 111, 666, 126, 136, 146, or 156. In other words a (1) one, six, and any other different number; or (2) three ones or three sixes.
Most of the betting layout is all 30 combination of a pair and a singleton. Players may bet that any chosen combination will be rolled before the player craps out (for lack of a better term) by throwing one of turn ending combination's listed above. As in roulette the player may straddle two or four bets as well. There are also single roll bets. The following list explains all the available bets.

Red Dog is a variation of acey-duecey or in-between. The game is falling in popularity in the land casinos like other free online casino games but many Internet casinos offer the game. I have heard from two sources that the game can be found at top casinos like Turning Stone Casino and Resort in Verona, New York. I also have an unconfirmed report that Foxwoods has the game, titling it "Acey Deucey. Also known as yablon, ace-deuce, in between, and between the sheets, red dog is a card game that was introduced to the casinos in Nevada in the 1980's.
The game is played at best casino on blackjack-sized tables with a shoe holding six decks of cards. There is one dealer and can be up to as many as 16 players.

Chemin de Fer is a French free online gambling card game played mainly in European and Latin American's casino web sites. It is considered a baccarat variant, but the truth is, Baccarat is actually a variant of Chemin de Fer, or "railroad" in French. Chemin de Fer was developed generations before Baccarat, in France. The name comes from the custom of players passing the role of banker from one to the other. The game most in common with Chemin de Fer it is Baccarat en Banque. The rules are quite different than standard Baccarat as it is played in most online casino baccarat games. The Chemin de Fer Baccarat rules are highly complex. The game is played by up to 12 players, on a kidney-shaped table; the object is to total 9 with a hand of two or three cards. When the cards total a two-digit number, the first digit is ignored, so that 14 would count as 4. Ace counts as 1, number cards at face value, and picture cards as 10 (which counts 0). Chemin de fer derives from the Italian game baccarat, differing from it in that players bet one at a time against each other instead of against the house. As a casino game in the United States, chemin de fer was displaced by baccarat in the late 1950s.

Super Fun 21 is a variation of blackjack that can be seen at online casinos. The game is played using a standard 52 card deck. Aces can be counted as either a one or eleven depending on which value would best benefit the player's hand. In this free online casino game, all the face cards in the deck will be counted as ten. The remaining cards are taken at face value. The player must first place a bet and is then dealt two cards face up. The dealer is dealt two cards as well, but one is face up and one face down. The player then has the option to either "hit", (request another card) or "stand" (decline additional cards). The player's hand must beat the dealer's by coming closer to 21 without "busting" (exceeding 21). A winning hand with a total of 21 is called a blackjack.

Spanish 21" is similar to blackjack in may ways. Spanish 21 got its name from the deck used in the game. In new online casinos, it is played with a 48 card or "Spanish" deck. The deck has face cards that count as 10, but no numerical 10s. That is one of the best bets in a online casino. In locations where the dealer stands on a soft 17 or redoubling is allowed, Spanish 21 is probably a better bet than blackjack, depending on the specific blackjack rules. If you are looking for a change of pace from traditional blackjack but insist on a game with a low house edge you may find new excitement in Spanish 21.
In Australia and Malaysia, Spanish 21 is called Pontoon. There are some rule changes in Australia, which merit a separate page.

Lots of free online casino games are starting to make their own space on the top casinos online.
Pontoon is an unlicensed variant of the American game Spanish 21 that is played in Australian and Malaysian casinos. In Treasury Casino, Brisbane, it is known as Treasury 21, in Jupiters Casino, Gold Coast, it is known as Jupiters 21, in The Reef Casino, Cairns, it is known as Paradise Pontoon, and in Tasmania, it is known as Federal Pontoon.
It should not be confused with the black jack variant called Pontoon, found in the UK and former British colonies such as Nepal, and played with regular 52-card decks. Pontoon has proven to be far more popular in Australia than Spanish 21 has been in the United States.

Extreme 21 is a free online gambling blackjack variant form of regular blackjack that is primarily played for fun because the odds of winning any significant money are very low. The house edge happens to be three times that of regular blackjack. A player who is more interested in trying to make money would be better served by trying a different game.
However, for the recreational player looking for something different in casino web sites?, this can be an exciting game. Extreme 21 Blackjack is played just like a normal game of blackjack except for one crucial difference and that is that the dealer cannot stand on a hand value. In Extreme 21, the dealer will keep hitting until they get a higher number than the player or until they go bust.

Riverboat Hold'em Poker is a poker-based free online casino game found in Mississippi and Indiana. Usually I do all my own analysis for this site. However in the case of this casino poker game the math is by Stanley Ko. The game owner provided me Stanley's report, with permission to publish on this site. I can only independently vouch for the River bet tables. Below are the Riverboat Hold'Em Poker Rules and strategies.
- A single 52-card deck is used.
- Play starts with the player making an ante bet and an optional River Bet.
- The dealer will give each player ahd himself two cards face down. The player may look at his own cards but sharing of information is not allowed.
- The player has the following options.
- Fold: Player loses ante bet. The River Bet (if made) remains active.
- Call: Player must place an additional bet equal exactly to the ante.
- Raise: Player must place an additional bet equal exactly to two times the ante.
- The dealer deals three community cards face up.
- The dealer will turn over his two hole cards.
- The dealer must have a king-jack or higher to qualify. For example, the lowest possible qualifying hand would be K,J,4,3,2. If the dealer does not qualify all ante bets will pay 1 to 1 and all call and raise bets will push.
- If the dealer qualifies and the player has the higher hand then the ante and call or raise bets will pay 1 to 1.
- If the dealer qualifies and the dealer has the higher hand, or there is a tie, then the ante and call or raise bets will lose.
- The dealer will resolve the river bet based only on the poker value of the player's hand. There are four pay tables available from the game maker as shown below.
The following table shows the optimal player strategy according to the player's initial two cards. There is no code for fold because the player should never do so.

Q Poker is an online casino game first noticed at the Lisboa in Macau in August 2007. This online casino portal is very similar to Three Card Poker. The first difference is that instead of having the choice to raise or fold, the player may surrender or call. In both games the player will win half his total bet if the dealer does not qualify, in this case half the Ante bet. The dealer must qualify, and the player must beat the dealer, to be paid premium odds for a straight or higher.

Pyramid poker is a simplified version of pai gow poker, where instead of seven cards, three cards are dealt face down in top casinos. It uses a standard 52 card deck without jokers. The hand rankings are just like in poker except that aces are always high. The dealer deals the player and himself 3 cards, which is arranged into a 2 card hand and a 1 card hand which should be smaller than the 2-card hand. There are no straights or flushes in the 2-card hand, and a higher ranked hand wins in both the hands.
In order to win, the both the hands of the player has to be higher than the dealer's hands. If only one hand is higher and the other loses, then the bet is a tie or push. The players loses his bet if the dealer wins both ways. All copies (equal face value) shall go to the dealer giving the advantage to the house.
There is also the "House Way" in this poker variant that adds more variety in free online casino games.
