Good Old Fashioned War Card Game Available At Cherry Red Casino
Cherry Red The game of War has been played for centuries by card players as a form of entertainment. Now, the game is catching on in the online gambling community, where it is available for play at Cherry Red Casino.
War is the simplest of all card games. A player turns over a card from the top of their stack and the player they are against does the same. The player with the highest card wins. It is simple, and the online gambling version is similar.
Instead of having half the deck each to start the game like two players would in a traditional game, the online version pits dealer against player. The goal here is not to gain all the cards, but simply to beat the dealers card.
First the player decides on a bet. Once the betting is done, the dealer gives the player their card first, face up. Then, the dealer gets a card face up. The higher card wins the amount of the bet, which at Cherry Red is a maximum of $250.
The one catch for players is the actual war situation. If the dealer and the player have cards that match, the player receives an option. They can end in a draw and keep their money, or they can go to war and risk double their original bet.
If a war is chosen, the dealer places three face down cards and one face up card to the player. Then, the dealer does the same for themselves. The higher war card wins both the original bet and the war bet.
Online casinos have made it clear that they are trying to bring customers all of their favorite games. War is one of those games, and it can be an enjoyable change of pace from the more advanced card games at Cherry Red.
