NEW FEATURE: Casino

[Andrew Green]

Martialtalk now has a casino!

Link is in the navbar, the casino is currently open to all members! (however this may switch to only supporting members in the future)

There are 10 games in total, including blackjack, let 'em ride, Roulette, Slot machines, Video Poker and a 10 player Texas Hold'em game (Limit).

Have fun :)

And as far as earning cash goes, well, you get a little extra for doing certain things (posting, starting threads, referrals, etc.) so if you go broke, all is not lost ;)

Report any bugs to me (I'm the one that fixes them)

Okay... that explains the cash that I got below my ID... got me wondering... hmm... okay.
So MT-ers can play together? That'd be cool.

[Andrew Green]

yup, 10 at a time can be playing poker :)

[LuzRD]

dang, and it looks like a great time killer!

"LuzRD, you do not have permission to access this page."

You should be allowed in now

[LuzRD]

yup, seems to be working. thank you!

[Tames D]

$250 bankroll! I'm high rollin baby! LOL. Looks like fun. How is the Casino Cash amount established?

[Andrew Green]

You start with $250, and get more for posting, starting threads, logging in daily, referals, getting rep, giving rep, etc. Basically contributing to the site.

Or winning it in the casino :)

Thanks Andrew. Yeah, I was wondering if everyone started with the same amount despite post count or rep.

[BrandiJo]

soo what do you do with the money tho?

[Andrew Green]

Play games, hit "Casino" in the navbar ;)

or click here: http://martialtalk.com/forum/casino.php?

[BrandiJo]

lol i got that far, but is there a place to "spend" the money once we get rich in the casino?

[Andrew Green]

nope, no spending, just playing.

[BrandiJo]

ah ok :) cool cool

[Bob Hubbard]

Can you add an "Old Las Vegas" mode? Where they break your kneecaps if you crap out too many times? I'll test it...I'm good at crappin out, LOL!

[BrandiJo]

haha im with you, im already broke!

[Jade Tigress]

Very cool. Thanks Andrew. :asian:

[JadecloudAlchemist]

Can you give people Casino cash like you give Rep points?

[agemechanic03]

Hehehe, In less than 10 min, I was broke, the big $0!!! Woo Hoo, tells you how good of a gambler I am!

[terryl965]

Andrew I neeb alot more money to be able to gamble the right way.

[Andrew Green]

Can you give people Casino cash like you give Rep points?

You can transfer money, but to give it, it comes off of your total ;)

[bydand]

You know how to make me have half-a-million dollars quick? Yep, give me 10 million and put me in a casino. At least it isn't "real" money I will be losing this time.

[arnisador]

Will high rollers get free drinks?

And wheer can I buy the Wayne Newton tickets?

[MBuzzy]

The casino is AWESOME. Although I'd like a way to buy more casino money. :) Maybe $5 for 500 or something.

Also, a few of us are in the Texas Hold em and would love to set up a recurring game, every night. OR a few tournaments. Can you have two instances of Texsa hold em going on at the same time?

Although...how far can we go before MT turns into a gambling site?

[Bob Hubbard]

I don't see a problem as it's all for fun and no cash payouts are taking place.
The casino is Andrews work, so I'll have to differ all the questions on it to him.

[Rich Parsons]

I have some feedback. I have my screen set at 1280 x 1024. The Hold'em game flickers for me. It is pretty consistant.

I like the game it just is hard on my eyes. :D

[Kreth]

nope, no spending, just playing.
Ah hell, I was gonna spend it on hookers and beer...

[Lisa]

Whoot! I just won me some cash on texas holdem!

[Rich Parsons]

Whoot! I just won me some cash on texas holdem!

Lisa kicked my BUTT! So did MBUZZY.

[michaeledward]

Whoot! I just won me some cash on texas holdem!


I'm sorry ... what does my Casino Cash say now ???

Oh, Yeah ... It says

:lisafault:

[Lisa]

I'm sorry ... what does my Casino Cash say now ???

Oh, Yeah ... It says

:lisafault:

Hey you have another $2, wanna play again. :D

I got lucky folks, one hand I had 4 10's. Sheer luck.

[newGuy12]

Ah hell, I was gonna spend it on hookers and beer...

I was going to buy COFFEE DRINKS and the hookers!

Haha!

I have never gambled before, I've never played these games. Surely slot machines can't be hard to understand... here I go to make my fortune in MT money!!!

[newGuy12]

Can you add an "Old Las Vegas" mode? Where they break your kneecaps if you crap out too many times? I'll test it...I'm good at crappin out, LOL!

Haha! That would be hard to carry out on some of the chaps around here!!!

[MBuzzy]

My lord, what happened while I was gone???!?!!? Everyone had money! I told you guys we should have all kept checking!

And Lisa.....I'm not sure that I fully believe that you didn't know how to play.....

[newGuy12]

I suspect that the "Bars and 7s" slot machine is not paying out as it should. I had $6 just a minute ago, played the machine and won, see here:

http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/7222/winningslx8.jpg

And yet my total stayed at $6. It should be at $11 now right?

Mind you, I have very little care about this, I simply wish to give feedback, to report what I think *might* be a bug.

[Lisa]

Why, whatever do you mean? :angel:



:uhyeah:

[MBuzzy]

Uh huh....

:angel: my butt.

Name Bet Won Profit
Lisa 259 472 213


Those aren't the stats of someone who hasn't played before. :) Plus, there are those of us who HAVE played before and know to never believe someone who says that they haven't!



btw, sorry if I blew your cover! hehehe

[Lisa]

Its okay, I had a hand with 4 tens, lucky, plain and simple.

[MBuzzy]

WOW - Ok, well that would definately do it!!!

[terryl965]

Well I'm posting cause I have no money

[Laurentkd]

Did you have $6 and then bet $5, leaving you with $1? And then you won $5 back which would keep you at $6?
I am sure you are not as easily confused as I am, but it actually took me a couple of times looking at it before I figured out the same thing when I was playing.

[Laurentkd]

Would it be possible to just be able to WATCH the texas hold'em? I am not at all a card player and right now just having fun with slots and video poker, but maybe if I could watch a little Texas I could get the nerve to join in once I figured it out.
Can't wait for all the replys of "go ahead and try it..." from all you "nice" MT gambler addicts! Looks like I should stay away from Lisa regardless!

[LuzRD]

go ahead and try it




there ARE good (free) downloadable poker games to get some experience on if your interested.

As mentioned above, if you bet 5, and get 5 back, you end up with the same amount you started with.

I've considered that, and might work it in at some point. Still only says .81, so I got a few things left to add.

[terryl965]

I need more money Please give me more Andrew I'm a good little Post Whore ask anybody

[Andrew Green]

I changed the starting point to $500, and bumped everyone up by 250. Amazing how fast some of you can bankrupt yourselves ;)

[LuzRD]

thats nothing! watch as i do it AGAIN!! hahaha

[MBuzzy]

I was wondering.......all the sudden I had A LOT more money....

I was about to run away with the bank error!

[terryl965]

Yea you know if we ever play together I'm a easy target.

[MBuzzy]

TERRY, Where are you spending it all???

[LuzRD]

ummm i think this is a great idea for a site feature, but i might have to stop playing it for a while (or end up in meetings) lol

[CoryKS]

Bwahahahaha!!!! I is luzing!

[Big Don]

As the casino is not something I'll ever use, I gave my cash away and will continue to do so. Just ask when you see I have some.

[kidswarrior]

As the casino is not something I'll ever use, I gave my cash away and will continue to do so. Just ask when you see I have some.How do you give it away? I'll never use it either.

[michaeledward]

How do you give it away? I'll never use it either.
Go into the casino, and scroll to the bottom of the page ..

Click the Transfer link ...

[LuzRD]

Bwahahahaha!!!! I is luzing!

LMAO :lfao::cheers:

[Shicomm]

Just found the poker room and earned and extra 300 bucks in about 3 hands... ;) Nice feature!

[MA-Caver]

Just found the poker room and earned and extra 300 bucks in about 3 hands... ;) Nice feature!
Yeah and I'm gonna win some of that back ...


Poker room is good... got a couple of glitches that could be tweaked otherwise... it's fun to play with a bunch of MT-ers

[Andrew Green]

If you see glitches, send them to me :)

[crushing]

That was just a one time bump? I thought it was a daily allowance. Oops, I was to hasty in luzing it all.

Baby needs new shoes!!!!!

[LuzRD]

its fun though isnt it? :cuss: lol

[jim777]

It took me all of about 10 minutes to lose all my money at Blackjack :D

[CoryKS]

It took me all of about 10 minutes to lose all my money at Blackjack :D

Ten whole minutes?! You know you can click that 10 chip more than once, right? :rofl:

[Andrew Green]

Ten whole minutes?! You know you can click that 10 chip more than once, right? :rofl:

I could turn on the larger chips, remove the limit on the table games.

Plop a 500 chip in the slot machine and you're done :)

[Bob Hubbard]

ok. :)

not that I have $500 any more.. LOL

[terryl965]

There is something wrong witht he system, here is my problem anyway, I'm loosing all the time. Now I'm not the greatest gambler alive but people like me need to be able to go to the versateller and recieve more money like Vegas.

[shesulsa]

You just need to learn when to say "no" ... heh heh heh. * I can see it now, Bob trying his besterist and coming out with 'nnnnn..nnnnn...nnnyeth .... nnnnnyesss ...nnnnnnnnnyesssssssssssssssssssssssssss' heh heh heh.

[thardey]

Umm . . . I think something's wrong with the stats, I bet Luzrd would like to know that apparently he's won over $2000 at Blackjack!

Check it out! He's the top scorer!

[LuzRD]

well thats because i dont JUST lose lol

at no point did i have even close to $1000, but since i won a little then lost a little consistantly before going broke it got my overall winnings up and i was still able to go bankrupt a couple times :wink2:

i just looked and the stats have me with the most money won but right now i have $0 lol. its just a matter of going broke slow enough that you win almost as often as you lose i guess


now where is that loan shark??

[newGuy12]

Did you have $6 and then bet $5, leaving you with $1? And then you won $5 back which would keep you at $6?
I am sure you are not as easily confused as I am, but it actually took me a couple of times looking at it before I figured out the same thing when I was playing.

I see what you are saying. Perhaps that's it.

[Andrew Green]

Something does look a little off on the blackjack stats, I'll have a look when I get some time to work on it. Could be it is not logging a double down or a split bet or something.

[MBuzzy]

Is it possible to add a feature to be able to change your bet in Texas Hold em?

[Andrew Green]

A no limit game is something I might have a go at in the future, but for now it follows limit rules. Which are more friendly to people dropping in and out IMO. A No-limit game would work better as a tournament.

[Dave Leverich]

I must be blind, I'm not seeing a Casino link?

[BrandiJo]

its on the top bar.. where you have the link to User CP, Rules, arcade and such ... its the 8th one in :)

[Xue Sheng]

I was just wondering.... Where can I cash in my Casino Cash?

I have to go Christmas shopping this week :uhyeah:

[jim777]

I'm, not entirely sure if the douible down works, because I don't know what it means :lol: But it does pretty much assure a loss!

[Andrew Green]

double the bet and take one more card (and only one more)

Only a good option if you got a 10 or 11 most of the time, or you are betting the dealer will bust.

[Bob Hubbard]

Can you add a "Strip Poker" option for Supporting Members only? LOL

[terryl965]

Can I have an open credit line of $10,000 please so I can gamble for one hour straight?
Thank you

[BrandiJo]

[thardey]

So, how do you earn more money?

I'm hoping to be able to win/earn enough to learn how to play Texas Hold-em, but you've gotta be able to go into it with some dough to lose.

Keep posting. :)

You earn as you post.

[thardey]

Keep posting. :)

You earn as you post.

What is it? $1 a post? I figured out it's 1$ a rep. That's a lot of posting and repping.

I figure I'll need a little over $700 to burn before I can start even thinking about winning at TX-holdem (other than an occasional lucky hand). That just leaves me about 6 months to "earn" it, and the rest of the games are weighted to the house.

You can also beg. Other members not interested in the Casino can donate to you. Start sending out some compliments. ;)
