Ricochet

ricochet

In essence the game of Ricochet is similar to Craps but with certain important variations. Firstly, there is no point or "come out" roll and the game is played with a set of three dice rather than a pair. Ricochet is played on a somewhat smaller table than a Craps table and the players normally remain seated while taking it in turns to roll the dice.

It is certain that Charles Fey could never have anticipated the effect he was to have on the future of gambling when; in 1897, he released his first mechanical slot machine into an unsuspecting world. Although bearing very little resemblance to his original "Liberty Bell" invention and despite an initial cold reception, the number of slot machines that proliferate in today's terrestrial and online casinos can be counted in millions and their variety in hundreds.

In this game, all natural tens are removed from each deck in use at the table, leaving only the face cards, Jacks, Queens and Kings with which to create a two-card total of twenty-one.

The understandable reaction of most people, hearing this for the first time, is to claim immediately that this will offer the casino an excessively high

Known as "La Ruota Della Fortuna" in Italy and as "La Roue de la Fortune" in France, the Wheel of Fortune is undoubtedly the most successful TV Game Show Franchise ever.
