SENECA NIAGARA CASINO ANNOUNCES AUGUST AND SEPTEMBER DATES FOR FREE LEARN-TO-PLAY TABLE GAMES SESSIONS Mini-Baccarat in August; Mississippi Stud Poker in September NIAGARA FALLS, N.Y. – Seneca Niagara Casino & Hotel announces upcoming dates in August and September for its recently unveiled learn-to-play table games sessions. The free, ongoing initiative offers guests the opportunity to get comfortable with some of the liveliest games on the casino floor, such as blackjack, roulette, craps, mini-baccarat and brand-new offerings like Blackjack Switch and Mississippi Stud Poker. The learn-to-play sessions are offered every other Wednesday each month. All participants will be able to learn the rules, ask questions and try table games with “play money.” There is even a monthly $10 match play incentive for attending. Sessions take place from noon to 1 p.m. and 3 to 4 p.m. in the table games pit directly in front of the main casino cage area. The upcoming learn-to-play schedule is as follows: August 7: Mini-Baccarat August 21: Mini-Baccarat September 4: Mississippi Stud Poker September 18: Mississippi Stud Poker Registration is simple and free. Guests simply need to sign up at the table games pit starting one hour before each session. As an added incentive, guests who participate in a
learn-to-play session will receive one $10 match-play coupon per month that can be used to bet at a table game after the training. Multiple dealer demonstrations and opportunities to try the particular table game with “play money” will take place during each one-hour session. Guests are willing to stay for as little or as long as they would like, until they determine they have gained enough of a comfortlevel and knowledge about the particular game. The learn-to-play game for August, Mini-Baccarat, is one of the easiest and most exciting table games to play at Seneca Niagara Casino & Hotel. The odds of winning are close to 50/50 and a player simply needs to make two decisions: where to bet and how much. The card game focuses on totals of zero through nine and uses eight decks of cards; face cards and 10’s count as zero points and aces count as one point. Mini-Baccarat originated in Europe but spread across Asia and is one of the most popular games throughout the casinofilled region of Macau in China. September’s learn-to-play game, Mississippi Stud Poker, is based on Five-Card Stud Poker. Instead of competing against the dealer, players determine to raise or fold their bets as the three community cards are revealed and ultimately win if their hands meet or beat a pair of jacks. Seneca Niagara Casino & Hotel offers 100 table games on property, including blackjack, roulette, craps, mini-baccarat, Caribbean Stud Poker, Let It Ride®, Pai Gow Poker, threecard poker, and Spanish 21. New table games that arrived in late 2012 include Mississippi Stud Poker, Blackjack Switch and Blackjack Super 7’s.
