In this boxing themed arcade game players hop into the ring with a heavyweight boxer and bet on how and where they can land punches. Players can bet anything from $0.01 to $100.00 and win simply by landing a punch. There are five punching zones; two of them pay 12/1, two pay 3/1 and the other pays 5/1. After you select which zone you are trying to punch and your wager amount the heavyweights go at it. If your man lands a punch you win the specified amount. If he doesn’t watch out because he will end up bloodied and bruised.

Derby Day

However this is a thing of the past with the Derby Day arcade game from Casino.com. Players can place wagers up to $100 on the digital horse races, which take around 15 seconds to complete. The six horses pay odds between 5/1 and 6/1 meaning there is great value to be had. Players can bet on the win, show and place as well as exotic bets such as exactas and pick fours.

Penalty Shoot-Out

Fans of soccer will love the penalty shoot-out arcade game at Casino.com. Players can step up to the spot, pick there mark and fire away. But be careful because the goal-keeper is a very good shot stopper. Much like the Knockout game, there are 5 scoring zones and each pays at a different rate.

Let’s face it we would all cheat at the casino if there were no way of being caught. That’s what counting cards is all about. Well now there is a game that has made cheating legal. That game is Blackjack Switch.

Blackjack Switch follows most of the same rules as regular blackjack. The player must still get close to 21 without going over and must still beat the dealer. What’s more the dealer will also hit on soft 17. But here’s where it gets different. In Blackjack Switch a player will always play two hands. The hand starts the same as any other blackjack hand in that the dealer will deal to both of your boxes and ask whether you want to hit, stand, double or split. However in Blackjack Switch there is another option and that is to switch.

Normally if you started messing about with the cards on the table you would find yourself in a spot of bother. But messing with the cards on the table is the focal point of Blackjack Switch.

By selecting the switch option a player can swap the second card of each hand, creating all new totals. For example, say a player is playing two boxes at a regular blackjack table and was dealt 5+3 and 7+6. Normally this would be hands of 8 and 13, which would not place the player in a terribly strong position. However, with Blackjack Switch the player could switch the two second cards and the hand would become 5+6 and 3+7, meaning you would have 11 and 10, which is just about the perfect position. After the switch a player can hit or stand as they see fit.

There is also a handy side-bet to be had in Blackjack Switch. Players can bet on what is called the ‘Super Match’. This is a bet that a player will receive a matching cards in the original four that they are dealt. 1 pair will pay 1/1, 2 pairs pays 8/1, 3 of a kind pays 5/1 and 4 of a kind pays 40/1. It’s like perfect pairs except you get dealt four cards to try and hit a pair!

U.S players are reminded that U.S casinos do not offer Blackjack Switch. U.S players can play the full spectrum of 21 games at Go Casino, where you could earn a $20,000 deposit bonus!
