Playtech Online Casinos Offer New Card Game

Playtech Online Casinos can now offer a new card game to their already impressive selection of casino games. Stravaganza is played with 5 decks and although it has similarities to some other games in the points value, it's definitely unique in several ways.

The object of the game is to score more points than the dealer with your two to three cards. You are dealt two cards face up, the dealer gets three cards face down. You have several choices to make on how to proceed and how to bet.

Money Back - get a total of 5 or less with your two cards and you can get your bet back and the round is over.

Rescue Bet - get between 6 and 9 with your two cards and you can get half of your bet back and the round is over.

Sit - get 10 or more and you can 'sit' and continue play with your two cards.

Play On - choose this when you'd like to continue to play, at this time you must place another bet equal to your initial bet, then drawing a third card to increase your total. You can choose this play at any time during the game.

After you've made one of these bets or plays, the dealer reveals his hand and the higher score wins. But, if the dealer has a Red Ace in his hand he wins and you will lose your first bet, any second bets will be considered a push.

There are possible Bonuses on your third card, if you chose to receive one, by getting a Three of a Kind, which pays 3 to 1 on the first bet. If you have three face cards you get 1.5 to 1 on the first bet.

Stravaganza has a Progressive Jackpot payout if you make a side bet, which contributes to the jackpot. Get three Kings of Hearts in your hand and you win the jackpot.
