How do the tables work?
There are a number of different table types. Each table type has a different way of handling wagers, and being opened. Every table has its final winners determined by the same algorithm.
How is the winner determined?
The winner of each table is selected by way of a random "dice" roll, the seat that rolls the highest wins the prize, second highest roll earns second place, and so on. Technically, this is a bit more complicated than it may sound. Each "seat" (or wager) at a table is given a unique number between 1 and 1000 after the table is filled, allowing us to randomly determine a winner. If you are technically savvy, the below snippet of code may help better understand how the random rolls are performed.
In the image you can see that each individual seat of a given table is assigned a unique random number, and then that number is forever associated with that seat in the database. There are no other lines of code that adjust the "random" field in the database, and in the event this changes for any reason, we will update the site with the new lines of code accordingly.
How do I claim my prize?
After taking first place in any table, you will find your Winnings under the Account tab at the bottom of the page. By clicking on the winning entry you can select your style of payout (Item, ISK Buyout, or Site Credit). Site Credit (
) payouts will be processed immediately upon confirmation. Items and ISK buyouts are processed manually by a representative of Fortune Gaming via in game Contracts, you should be able to accept your Item or ISK Buyout Contract within 24 hours of the request.
The second and third place winners on Item Tables will receive their winnings automatically deposited in to their account.
How does Blackjack work?
How are the cards "dealt"?
When developing the Blackjack game, we came up with a system that mimics Blackjack in real life extremely closely. So closely that you would get the same level of gameplay and odds in a real casino. Our database stores a full shoe (1 deck of 52 cards) for each player and pulls a single card off the top for each and every card dealt. After the deck reaches a certain point (between 30 and 40% of the cards remaining), it is completely replaced with a newly shuffled shoe. This is exactly how a casino operates: a cut card is placed randomly towards the middle of the shoe, and once it comes up the shoe is then replaced.
Below are provided a few code excerpts which should help the technically savvy understand the process.

There are a number of different table types. Each table type has a different way of handling wagers, and being opened. Every table has its final winners determined by the same algorithm.
Item Tables - Item Tables can be created by anyone, as long as there is an open slot for that table type. There are a total of 8 table slots, of which there can be only 2 active tables with 20,000,000 or higher wager, 3 active tables with 10,000,000 - 20,000,000 wager, and as many lower wager tables as there are table slots available, and only one table can be open for any one item at a time. To create a table is simple, wait for an open table slot to appear in the top left of the "Wager" screen, choose your desired item to wager for from the drop down menu, and then select "Start" - You will be redirected to a page with the full table layout and option to choose your seat. Once you select your seat, the table goes live to the Wager page and everyone can join in. Item Tables are straightforward, there are anywhere from 8-24 seats and every seat is open to anyone who would like to wager on the table, including multiple wagers from the same user. Up to half of the seats at an item table may be taken by one user.
