SENECA NIAGARA CASINO ANNOUNCES OCTOBER AND NOVEMBER DATES FOR FREE LEARN-TO-PLAY TABLE GAMES SESSIONS Mississippi Stud Poker in October; Roulette in November NIAGARA FALLS, N.Y. – Seneca Niagara Casino & Hotel announces upcoming dates in October and November for its 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: October 2: Mississippi Stud Poker October 16: Mississippi Stud Poker October 30: Mississippi Stud Poker November 13: Roulette November 27: Roulette 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 game. October’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. The learn-to-play game for November, Roulette, began in the 1700s in France and remains immensely popular today at casinos worldwide. The word “roulette” is French in origin and translates as “little wheel.” Before the wheel spins and the ball lands on a winning number, a player can make any number of 11 different types of bets – each offering varying payouts. However, participation in the game can be as simple as betting on a single number. Roulette wheels at Seneca Niagara Casino & Hotel contain 38 numbers: 1 through 36, zero (0) and double-zero (00). 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.
