Advertising feature. Casino War is based on the children's card game 'War' and is an exciting game that can be played at Roxy Palace, many people will also know this game under the umbrella term ‘Higher Card’.

To put it basically, the player and the dealer agree a wager before the cards are dealt. The dealer deals him or herself a card then the player both face up and whoever has the highest card wins regardless of suit. The war element comes in if there is a tie. Both the dealer and the player can bet on a tie and if but, if you haven't already agreed on a wager, then you get to go to war. This event is where the dealer give both the player and him or herself three cards face down, then they pick one each to turn over. The highest card wins.

Alternatively you can surrender as the tie is announced and you keep half you're wager but this obviously stands you at a loss and is a risky move to take. It's worth keeping in mind as well that if you bet on a tie then you have the odds at ten to one, which when playing with six packs of fifty two, is slightly more likely.

The benefit of playing this game online is the pace at which you can play. It's fast, crisp and smooth. You can also bring up statistics letting you in on the odds and your personal record. There are also different game modes and a difficulty setting which allows you to pit your wits against the dealer and test yourself.

With all this in mind and the accessible interface, 24/7 support, easy payment systems and also complete privacy at Roxy Palace, there's all the more reason to deploy the troops and head out for Casino War.
