Game Fairness
Understanding Game Mechanics and Randomness
How do the game mechanics work?
Every game at onsite is designed with specific rules and mechanics. These rules dictate how the game is played and how winners are determined. For example, slot machines use a Random Number Generator (RNG) to ensure that each spin is independent and random.
What is Random Number Generator (RNG)?
RNG is a computer algorithm used in all our games to ensure fairness. It generates a unique sequence of numbers every millisecond, making the outcome of each game entirely random and unpredictable.
Skill vs. Chance
Are casino games based on skill or chance?
Most casino games are based on chance. Games like slots, roulette, and baccarat rely purely on luck. However, some games, such as poker and blackjack, involve an element of skill where your decisions can affect the outcome.
Odds of Winning and Losing
What are the odds of winning and losing?
Every game has different odds of winning, which are based on its rules and mechanics. For example, the odds in a slot machine are determined by the RNG, while in games like poker, the odds can be influenced by the player's skill and strategy. You will find the expected Return to Player percentage within each of our games.
House Advantage
What is the house advantage?
House advantage refers to the mathematical edge that the casino has over the players. It's built into the design of each game to ensure that over time, the house will make a profit. This does not mean you cannot win – we have lots of winners; it just means the odds are in favour of the house in the long run, taking all bets from all players into consideration.
Return to Player (RTP)
What is Return to Player (RTP)?
RTP is the percentage of all wagered money that a game will pay back to players over time. For example, a slot machine with an RTP of 95% will return $95 for every $100 wagered, on average, over a long period. You will find the expected Return to Player percentage within each of our games.
Common Gambling Myths
Is each spin independent, and do prior results affect future gameplay?
Yes, each spin is completely independent of the previous ones. The outcome of each spin is determined by the RNG, making it impossible for past results to influence future spins.
Are there hot and cold numbers in games like roulette?
No, there are no hot or cold numbers. Each spin of the roulette wheel is independent and random. Past results do not affect future outcomes.
Are odd or even numbers luckier?
No, odd and even numbers have the same probability of appearing in games of chance. Believing that one is luckier than the other is a common gambling myth.
Responsible Gambling
How can I gamble responsibly?
Set a budget and stick to it, take regular breaks, and never chase losses. Gambling should be a form of entertainment, not a way to make money. If you ever feel that gambling is becoming a problem, seek help from professional organisations.
