			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Everyone loves to have a gamble from time to time (myself included). Unfortunately we don’t always win, but the real fun is in the playing, not the winning. Here is a list of the top 10 Casino games.</p>
<p>10. Bingo</p>
<p>Bingo Set</p>
<p>Bingo is a game in which players try to match randomly selected numbers to the numbers on their card. The card consists of a 5×5 matrix where each column is represented by the letters B-I-N-G-O. The middle square is typically a free square. The first person to form a specific pattern (usually a straight line) calls out “Bingo!”. The card gets checked for accuracy and the winner is announced. Then a new round begins.</p>
<p>9. Baccarat</p>
<p>Baccarat</p>
<p>In Baccarat each player has three options: Player, Tie, and Banker. When all players have placed their bets, the dealer deals out two 2-card hands, one is the banker hand while the other is the player hand. The hands are added up. If a hand totals over ten, the ten is dropped (I.E. 9+5=14=4). A hand equaled to 10 becomes a 0 or baccarat. The winning hand would be the higher of the 2 and anyone who placed a corresponding bet wins.</p>
<p>8. Wheel of Fortune (The Big Six)</p>
<p>Wheel-Big Six</p>
<p>This game is played by placing your bet on one of 6 symbols on the game table. Then the wheel is spun. The wheel is divided into 52 equal sections that are separated by pins around the edge. When the wheel comes to a stop, the pointer will be between two pins. All bets placed on the symbol the wheel stops on, win.</p>
<p>7. Keno</p>
<p>Keno</p>
<p>Keno is a lottery game. The player get a card numbered 1 to 80. The player then picks up to 20 numbers and a wager. The card is then registered and the game begins. The caller announces 20 randomly drawn numbers. The player tries to match as many called numbers to their selected numbers. The more numbers matched the higher the winnings paid against their wager.</p>
<p>6. Pai Gow Poker</p>
<p>Paigow</p>
<p>Pai Gow Poker is played against the house instead of the other players. The dealer deals out 7 cards to each player and himself in rotation. Everyone then looks at their cards and tries to make the best 5-card and 2-card poker hands. The 5-card hand must rank higher than the 2-card hand. The hands are then compared against the dealers. If both hands beat the dealer, the player wins. If both lose, the player loses. If both the dealer and the player win on a hand, it is a push.</p>
<p>5. Roulette</p>
<p>Roulette</p>
<p>In roulette, the player places his chips on the table where they would like to wager. The table consists of number 0-36 and 00 and then has additional betting for even-odd, red-black, low 18-high 18, low/middle/high 12, and for the first/second/third columns. A player may also place their bet between 2, 3, 4, or 5 numbers and may cross bet between the additional betting area. The dealer will signal no more bets. The dealer will spin the wheel in a clockwise direction then roll a ball in a counter-clockwise direction. The ball lands in a numbered slot on the wheel. All bets that correspond with the number win.</p>
<p>4. Slots</p>
<p>Slots</p>
<p>Slots are machines that play a number of different games. They are very popular. In general the player will insert coins into the machine and either pull a handle or press a button. This causes the wheels to spin. In older styled slot machines there were 3 wheels. In the newer machines they tend to have 3 to 5 simulated wheels. When the wheels stop, the player is paid based on the pattern of symbols.</p>
<p>3. Black Jack (21)</p>
<p>Blackjack</p>
<p>Blackjack is a card game played between the house and the player. The dealer deals out two cards to each player and their self. The dealer has one card face up and one down. The players then take turns trying to get as close to 21 without going over. Aces are equal to 1 or 11. Face cards are 10 and number cards are face value. The player calls hit to get a card, and stand to end their turn. A player may also call double to double their bet and may only receive one card and the turn ends. If a player has two identically numbered cards, they may split. This requires them to double their bet and then get two more cards making two new hands that they may play. After all players turns are over, the dealer reveals their card. The dealer then hits if the total is 16 or less and stands on 17 and higher. Everyone who has a hand that beats the dealer without going over 21 wins.</p>
<p>2. Craps</p>
<p>Craps</p>
<p>Craps is a high energy dice game based on 7. The player places bets around the table. There are many places to bet. The Pass line is the main focus of the game. 7 and 11 win on this line while 2, 3 and 12 lose. All other numbers rolled make an established point. If that number is rolled again before a 7 is rolled, the bet wins. The Don’t Pass line is just the opposite, 2 and 3 win where 7 and 11 loses. The Field line wins on 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11, and 12. 2 and 12 pay double. The Come line is playable after a point is established. It plays the same as the Pass line. The Don’t Come plays like Don’t Pass after the point is established. Then you also can make bets on the horn. These bets are on getting 2, 3, 11, or 12 on the next roll. Other bets include Big 6/8, C&amp;E, Any Seven, and Craps.</p>
<p>1. Poker</p>
<p>Poker</p>
<p>Poker is a card game base on a 5 card hand. The ranking of hands from lowest to highest are high card, pair, two pair, three of a kind, straight, flush, full house, four of a kind, straight flush, and royal flush. The player with the best hand wins. There are many versions of poker such as 5-card draw, 5-card stud, Texas Hold’em, Omaha Hold’em, Razz, Pineapple, and 7-card stud.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ohio University might be the most unlikely conference champion in the NCAA Tournament, as the Bobcats won the MAC tourney as a ninth seed and their reward is Big East power Georgetown on Thursday night in a Midwest Region first-round game in Providence, R.I. The Hoyas have opened as 13.5-point favorites on <a href="http://www.sportsbook-watch.com">bodog</a>’s <a href="http://sports.<a href="http://www.sportsbook-watch.com">bodog</a>.com/sports-betting/ncaa-college-basketball.jsp&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221;>college basketball odds.</a></p>
<p>No. 14 seed Ohio (21-14, 18-12 ATS) is in its 12th NCAA Tournament but first since 2005. The Bobcats are 4-12 all time in the Big Dance. They are led this year by MAC Tournament MVP <strong>Armon Bassett </strong>(a former Indiana player), who averaged a whopping 41.3 minutes and 29.0 points in the four conference tournament games, breaking the conference record for points in a tournament in one season. Freshman guard <strong>D.J. Cooper </strong>is Robin to Bassett’s Batman, with Cooper finishing second on the team in scoring this season (13.1 ppg) to go with 5.9 assists and 5.4 rebounds per game. Ohio plays an up-tempo style and enters the NCAAs on a five-game winning streak, which is a season high. In its only game against an opponent in common with Georgetown, the Bobcats fell to Pittsburgh, 74-49, on Dec. 12.</p>
<p>No. 3 Georgetown (23-10, 17-12 ATS) was slumping in the second half of the season but found itself in the Big East Tournament with three wins in three days (including an upset of Syracuse) before running out of gas in the final against West Virginia. Junior guard <strong>Austin Freeman, </strong>who revealed late in the season he had diabetes, leads the Hoyas in scoring at 16.7 ppg. But big man <strong>Greg Monroe </strong>is the true difference-maker on this team, and he played very well in the Big East tournament. Ohio figures to have no answer for him. But other than Freeman, Monroe and <strong>Chris Wright, </strong>the Hoyas don’t have much else, so the Bobcats might try to run them out of the gym.</p>
<p>Ohio and Georgetown have never played. The winner advances meets the winner of sixth-seeded Tennessee and 11th-seeded San Diego State on Saturday.</p>
