Casinos are fun places brimming with excellent games. Jackpot Capital offers a wide assortment of games that entertain gamers all over the world. There are some casino games that are considered classics such as blackjack, slots, craps, and roulette. The casino gaming forum encourages game providers to develop original games in the sense of innovation, imagination, and originality that provide a refreshing twist on the standard casino games.
Let’s take a look at original casino games in the sense of history and tradition and then we will take a look at newer casino games in the sense of originality to fit the modern casino milieu. We will look at games with distinctive features, gameplay, and the modern style of entertainment they provide to players of all stripes, ethnicities, and backgrounds.
THE BIG THREE CASINO GAMES
The Big Three are different at online casinos and land-based casinos. At Jackpot Capital Online Casino, the three top casino games are slots, video poker, and blackjack. Slots and blackjack are among the Big Three at most land-based casinos with craps and roulette in a tie for the third spot.
Slots Remain Number One!
The original slots were heavy, clunky mechanical machines. Places that had slot machines might have had two such machines. One lone slot machine was common. The original slot machines had little creativity in their gameplay. Players pulled the arm and if the symbols, which were the same for all slot machines of the day, lined up, the payer won. Yoo Hoo!
When the digital era arrived, land-based slots took on a very different nature. At first, game providers didn’t understand fully how digital gaming would work at land-based casinos since the first online casino had not yet entered the market!
Slots Change to Themed Games
The old-fashioned cherries and bars slots became old-fashioned seemingly overnight! Suddenly, game providers were using the medium of slots as a way to entertain with a storyline as well as a casino game.
The game developers soon realized that the number of themes was endless and that there was endless variation within each story motif. So, one slot about ancient Rome became several slots about ancient Rome. Greek, Egyptian, Chinese, Mayan, Aztec, and Incan cultures became prominent in modern slots.
The sheer number of slots grew exponentially and that presented a problem for land-based casinos. These casinos are limited in the available space so they would have to take out older slots to make room for newer slots and new slots were being developed about once a month.
Online Casinos Have No Space Limitations
The upshot of limitless cyberspace is that Jackpot Capital and all other online casinos do not have to take out older slots to make room for newer slots. The happy results are two-fold.
First, we can offer a wider range of slots since we never have to take older slots out.
Second, an unlimited number of gamers can play a single slot here at Jackpot Capital while at land-based casinos, there can be only as many players as there are terminals for any given slot!
Blackjack Presented a Similar Problem and Solution
The problem is that land-based casinos have limited space and blackjack tables take up a lot of space. So, land-based casinos limited the number of blackjack tables and thus limited the number of blackjack variations. At Jackpot Capital, we have plenty of space so we can offer many blackjack variations.
The Player-friendly Win Rate in Blackjack Presented Another Dilemma
Keep in mind that this was not a dilemma for Jackpot Capital and other online casinos. It was a dilemma for land-based casinos alone. These casinos need as much profit as they can generate because of their massive operating costs and blackjack played correctly has a win rate of about 99.5%.
So, land-based casinos started paying only 6-5 for a blackjack. We have always continued to pay 3-2 for a blackjack. The win rate in 6-5 blackjack is substantially lower than the win rate n 3-2 blackjack.
Video Poker Joins the Ranks of the Top Three
There was never a game like video poker before the digital era arrived. Video poker is based most often on five-card draw poker but the player plays only against the pay table! The win rate in video poker played correctly is also about 99.5% so land-based casinos do not like to make video poker a prominent game on the floor!
We love to present many variations of video poker!

Originality is a Quest and Jackpot Capital Offers Many Unique Casino Games
Here are a few games on offer here at Jackpot Capital that are outside of the Big Three:
Three Card Poker
This game has similarities with the Caribbean Poker games. The player first places an ante bet and then the player and dealer get three cards down. In the online version, the player’s cards are up. The object is to have a better hand than the dealer with three cards.
The player looks at his or her cards and decides to continue or fold. If the player folds, the dealer wins the ante bet and the next hand is dealt.
If the player decides to continue, he or she places a second bey on the hand. This bet is equal to the ante.
The dealer needs at least a quern high hand to win both bets. If the player continues and the dealer doesn’t qualify, the player wins the ante bet and the second bet is a push. If the dealer qualifies and the player added the second bet, there are three possible outcomes. The dealer could win both bets, the payer could win both bets, or the hands are equal and they are a push.
Let ‘em Ride
This game was developed only in the 1990s. Players place three equal bets and get three cards face up. The two community cards are placed face down. The first bet counts as the ante bet. The player evaluates his hand and decides whether to see add the second bet to the mix before the dealer reveals the first community card.
The player has the same option before seeing the second community card. The better hand between the dealer and the player is the winner.
Pai Gow Poker
Pai Gow Poker combines a traditional Chinese domino game (Pai Gow) with poker, creating a unique and intriguing gameplay experience. Players aim to create two poker hands—one with five cards and another with two—using a standard deck of 52 cards. The five-card hand must outrank the two-card hand. This game rewards strategic decision-making and offers an exciting challenge for those seeking a fresh twist on traditional poker.
In Pai Gow Poker, it is common to break a very good five-card hand into a very good two-card hand and a mediocre larger hand in order to win both hands.
Caribbean Poker
There are three Caribbean Poker variations: Stud, Draw, and Hold’em. They are similar to Three Card Poker in that the player has to add a second bet if he or she wants to continue and the dealer has to qualify to win both bets.
The minimum hand the dealer needs to qualify varies from variation to variation. The player wins the ante hand even if his or her hand is weaker than the dealer’s hand if the dealer doesn’t qualify.
Novelty Games
We offer two super fun novelty games: Fish Catch and Banana Jones. Fish Catch is a deep-sea fishing game in which the player decides which fish they want to go after and which weapon to use
Gamers can play Fish Catch with other players from around the world!
Banana Jones is a spoof on the Indiana Jones movies and is based on the children’s classic board game Chutes and Ladders. The ladders are vines and the chutes are snakes!
The object is to free the Crystal Banana which is held in the palace. When gamers reach the palace they win money by choosing treasure chests “wisely”. Then Banana Jones goes “woo Hoo, Woo Hoo”!
