Introduction

RTG software boasts impressive speed, clarity, and user-friendliness. Casinos utilizing RTG often provide generous bonuses, although a few of them may have questionable reputations. RTG supports both downloadable and Flash casinos. This evaluation is relevant for both formats, but the accompanying images are exclusively from the downloadable version unless stated otherwise.

A standout aspect of RTG casinos is that many of the games feature adjustable rules and settings which can be changed by the casino manager. For instance, video poker has customizable pay tables, while blackjack allows adjustments to the number of decks used and whether the surrender option is available. Moreover, various hidden parameters can influence the payout percentages for slot machines.

Download Vs. Flash

Generally, the selection of games available should be fairly consistent between the Flash and downloadable versions of the casinos. While there may be some slots that are not accessible in Flash form, overall, the game library appears similar. Typically, the graphics in the downloadable version are clearer and the gameplay is faster. The subsequent images provide a comparative look at both formats—click on any image for a closer view.

Baccarat

The most notable thing about RTG baccarat In the game, a tie bet pays out at 9 to 1, unlike the typical 8 to 1. Other than that, the rules are fairly standard. It's noted that six decks of cards are typically employed. Wins from a Banker bet are rounded down to the nearest quarter, so be mindful to place your bets in increments of $5. The house edge varies based on the type of bet.

• Banker: 1.06%
• Player: 1.24%
• Tie: 4.93%

For players inclined towards superstitions, there's a history board that can be accessed by clicking the 'history' button found on the left side of the screen.

Bingo

There are two variations of bingo games available: Bonus Bingo and Roaring Twenties Bingo. These games incorporate features such as multipliers, extra balls, and bonuses, though the exact rules may not be fully outlined. Therefore, you'll need to navigate through the RTG bingo games on your own for now.

Blackjack

RTG provides a variety of Blackjack games to choose from. The rules for the standard Blackjack variant typically apply to other versions like Match Play, Perfect Pairs, and Suit 'Em Up, which also include side betting options.

• Players can adjust the number of decks used, although most casinos seem to favor six decks for gameplay.
• Dealer hits soft 17
• Double on any first two cards
• Double after a split
• Players have the opportunity to split their hands twice (allowing for up to three hands total), except for Aces, which can only be split once.
• In a situation where the dealer holds a blackjack, the player will only lose their original bet.
• Late surrender is a customizable option in some casinos, typically disabled, but it may be available at some establishments like Bodog.

One of my main frustrations with RTG software is that the rules screens do not specify the number of decks used in Blackjack, and the support staff often lack this information. After extensive experience with RTG casinos over the years, I strongly suspect that most casinos opt for six decks.

I reached a point of frustration with this significant gap in the rules that I created a dedicated page to address it. test for the number of decks .

You can also view a video of my gameplay on my channel. Caribbean Hold 'Em Notice the last hand where my flush only received an even-money payout on the Ante. YouTube Here are the rules and payout structures for RTG craps.

Craps

Odds allowed: This seems to vary; I've observed settings for 2x and 3x. Both for taking and laying the odds, the maximum bet correlates to the amount wagered on pass, come, don't pass, or don't come. It would be wonderful to see an online casino recognize that when laying odds, the multiplier should correspond to the win, not the bet itself.

• Field bets: Winnings on a 12 can be set at either 2 to 1 or 3 to 1. At 2 to 1, the house edge stands at 5.56%, while at 3 to 1, it drops to 2.78%.
• Place bets: Standard rules apply here. The house edge is 6.67% for the numbers 4 and 10, 4.00% for 5 and 9, and 1.52% for 6 and 8.
• Don't place bets: For those unfamiliar, don't place bets, which can also be found in the UK and Australia, work in opposition to place bets, winning on a roll of 7 while losing on the chosen number. The following table shows the payout structure and house edge for each resolved bet.
• Buy bets: A commission fee of 5% is deducted from wins based on the bet size. For instance, a $100 buy bet on 4 results in a payout of $195 (2 to 1 minus 5% of $100). The house edge is set at 1.67% for both 4 and 10, 2.00% for 5 and 9, and 2.27% for 6 and 8. Buying bets typically have a lower house edge compared to place bets, except for the 6 and 8.
  

  Don't Place Bets

  Number	Pays	House Edge
  4 or 10	5 to 11	3.03%
  5 or 9	5 to 8	2.50%
  6 or 8	4 to 5	1.82%

• Lay bets: The help screens indicate a 5% commission, but it’s unclear if this is based on the bet size or the win, and whether it needs to be prepaid. Through extensive testing, I've come to think that the help screens might be incorrect, and lay bets are adjudicated as follows:
• For a point of 4 or 10: A commission of 2.5% of the win applies, resulting in a net payoff of 39 to 80. The house edge calculated here is 0.83%. It's best to place bets in increments of $20 to avoid rounding down.
  • For a point of 5 or 9: A commission of 2.5% of the bet applies, resulting in effective payoff of 77 to 120. The house edge in this case is 1.50%. Here, it's advisable to place bets in increments of $30 to avoid rounding.
  • For a point of 6 or 8: A 4% commission is deducted from the win, resulting in a payoff of 4 to 5 (identical to the losing place bet on 6 or 8). The house edge calculated here is 1.82%. It's wise to bet in increments of $5 to avoid rounding down.
