Gamblers -- whether they play at cards, bingo, horse racing, policy, the lottery, or other 'numbers' games -- tend to want a winning edge. For this reason they often enhance their personal power through the use of amulets, charms, and ritual spells to bring favour to their enterprises.

GAMBLERS' LUCKY DREAM BOOKS
FOR CATCHING NUMBERS TO BET AND PLAY

Dream books specifically designed for lottery play may provide interpretations of dreams (dream divination), but they also have something that other dream books do not have -- lucky numbers for you to bet on, depending on what your dreams reveal. Lucky dream numbers are often believed to be the best numbers not only for betting, but also to use as telling 'signs' of the kind of luck you will have on certain days, at certain addresses, and in dealing with certain people.

These are some of the best and most often requested dream books utilized by folks who combine gambling play with signs and significations from hoodoo, conjuration, and rootwork. We offer all of these books for sale at our Lucky Mojo Divination and Dream Book sales page, for which the link is found below.

GAMBLERS' LUCKY RUN-DOWN AND WORK-OUT
NUMBER SYSTEM BETTING BOOKS

For those who play the numbers regularly, steadily, and often, the numbers themselves begin to aquire symbolism, not merely in terms of dreams, but in terms of odds-busting 'runs' or 'patterns,' whereby old winning numbers can be used to derive new numbers thought to be on the verge of catching. There are many systems of derivatives, including run-downs, work-outs, 'relative' nubers, and 'following' numbers.

The books in this list include the most famous and popular of the many run-down and work-out systems that have been developed by students of numberology and gambling.

GAMBLING HANDS AND LUCKY MOJO BAGS

Perhaps the most famous, and the best, of gambling charms is the mojo, which Robert Johnson mentions in his famous blues song, 'Little Queen of Spades,' recorded in 1937:

LITTLE QUEEN OF SPADES
by Robert Johnson
Now, she is a little queen of spades
and the men will not let her be
Mmm mmm mmm, she is the little queen of spades
and the men will not let her be
Everytime she makes a spread
hoo, fair brown, cold chill just runs all over me
I'm gon' get me a gamblin' woman
if the last thing that I do
Eee hee ee, gon' get me a gamblin' woman
if it's the last thing that I do
Well, a man don't need a woman
hoo, fair brown, that he got to give all his money to
Everybody say she got a mojo
now, she's been usin' that stuff
Mmm mmm mmm, 'verybody says she got a mojo
'cause she been usin' that stuff
But she got a way trimmin' down
hoo, fair brown, and I mean it's most too tough
Now little girl, since I am the King
baby, and you is a queen
Ooo hoo eee, since I am the King
baby, and you is a queen
Le's us put our heads together
hoo, fair brown, then we can make our money green

Johnson's 'gamblin' woman' uses a mojo to bring in the winnings, but she also 'trims' or marks her card deck, so that she can cheat a little, too. Because she is a card sharp, it is very likely that her particular mojo bag contains lucky hand root and five-finger grass, both of which are reputed to 'aid in all the work that five fingers can do.' Many people like to carry a mojo hand or conjure bag with them to the casino, for they feel that this will increase their luck. The most popular mojo hands for gambling have names such as these:

  • Fast Luck -- for luck in a hurry at slots, keno, bingo, races, lotteries
  • Three Jacks and a King -- for poker players
  • Money Drawing -- for gambling and for conventional business success
  • Lady Luck -- for dice players; brings in 'the luck o' the Irish'
  • John the Conqueror -- extremely popular for gambling and sex-luck
  • Lucky Hand -- contains a rare orchid root shaped like a hand
  • Money Stay With Me -- it's not how much you make, but what you can keep

All of these mojo hands are filled with various roots, herbs, and minerals that are reputed to be lucky in drawing money and bringing in the winnings -- such as John the Conqueror root, Lodestone, Magnetic Sand, Rabbit Foot, Cinnamon chips, Five Finger Grass, Lucky Hand root, and so forth. The bags come supplied with a dram vial of the named oil and instructions for personalization and use. Old-timers may also dress the bags with whisky or with the urine of their sexual partner.

BATHS AND HAND WASHES FOR GAMBLING LUCK

I know many people who like to prepare for casino gambling by washing their hands with a lucky herbal hand wash One of the nest of these is Gambler's Gold Lucky Seven Hand Wash, a special blend of seven herbs reputed to bring luck. You brew it up as a tea, then strain off the liquid, and wash your hands in it before going to play. The herbs included in this mixture are Chamomile, Calendula, Coriopsis, Alfalfa, Irish Moss, Cinnamon Chips, and Allspice Berries -- all of which are said to bring monetary good fortune or at least to drive away poverty.

One old-time rootwork practitioner who gave an interview to Harry M. Hyatt on May 26, 1938, in Memphis, Tennessee, told him a quick and simple way to bathe before going out to play cards at night: Dissolve saltpeter, sugar, bluestone (we'd use blueing balls now), and your own urine into the bathwater, then bathe downward and say the Lord's Prayer three times to cleanse yourself. Follow this by lightly dressing your playing cards with 'any kind of oil that you believe in' to draw good luck; when asked which oil was best, the informant specified Rose Oil. (Hyatt entry 1719 cylinder 1542:12)

SACHET POWDERS FOR GAMBLING LUCK

Sachet powders are a natural when it comes to dressing papers. Unlike oils, they do not stain and they can be subtly blown or dusted onto surfaces in such a way that no one knows they have been applied. SGamblers come into contact with paper every day, in the form of lottery tickets, bingo cards, racing sheets, tallies, score sheets, and paper money, so sachet powders are popular supplies with those who play to win.

Good Gambling Games

This picture shows an assortment of hoodoo powders marketed under the name THE BIG WIN. Whether you bet the lottery, go to the casinos, play the ponies, or take part in a friendly game of cards, we're wagering that THE BIG WIN can bring you the luck you desire in games of chance and skill. The assortment contains one foil-packet each of these Lucky Mojo brand powders:

Three Jacks and A King Sachet Powders

The Lucky Mojo Curio Company's BIG WIN is a powerful array of 13 hand-made hoodoo Sachet Powders you can use to dress your hands, your cards, your tickets, or your seat at the table. It's a veritable Baker's Dozen of gambler's luck-enhancing powders, and it is sold at a discount -- 13 powders for the price of 12 -- a $71.50 value for $66.00.

CONJURE OILS FOR GAMBLING LUCK

If carrying a mojo hand brewing up an herbal hand wash , or dusting with powders is too much trouble for you, you can always rub a specially prepared dressing oil pn your hands before you go to play. The oil can also be used to dress your coins and chips, or even to anoint your money before you use it to buy lottery tickets.

Among the best these conjure dressing oils for gambling are:

  • Fast Luck -- dress hands before playing slots, keno, bingo, races, lotteries
  • Three Jacks and a King -- dress your hands before playing cards or video poker
  • Money Drawing -- dress your hands and forehead before playing
  • Lady Luck -- for dice players; dress both your hands and the dice
  • John the Conqueror -- dress your money and carry a dressed root in your pocket
  • Lucky Mojo -- an all-purpose lucky oil for love, money, or games of chance.
  • Lucky Hand -- dress your money and hands before playing cards or video poker
  • Money Stay With Me -- dress your money to make your stake last loner
  • Pay Me -- usually this is employed to force someone to repay a debt that is owed, but it can also be used to force a casino to cough up the cash, as you will see below in 'Miss Robin's Lucky Gambling Spell.'
  • Lucky Number -- for playing the lottery, bingo, or any numbers-based game.
  • Good Luck -- an all-pupose luck formula for gambling, love, health, and general good fortune.
  • Lucky 13 -- used as a 'house dressing' to prepare the rooms where folks gamble; can be used by the 'house' or by players to gain an edge.

MISS ROBIN'S LUCKY GAMBLING SPELL

[The following was written by -- and is copyright by -- Robin Shepherd York, and is used with permission of the author.]

Sunday, March 13, 2005

Hello,

I would like tell you about the gambling spell i use when i go to bingo. It has worked every time now. This does not mean you will get rich, but it does make your pocket feel good.

It takes a little preparation:

The night before, take a bath in Pay Me bath crystals by Lucky Mojo. Air dry, don't towel dry yourself. Take a small bucket or a mug-size cup of your used bath water outdoors and throw it over your left shoulder to the West and don't look back.

Take all the money that you're going to play with and write, 'Money, return to me' (or 'RTM' for 'Return to Me') and put your name (or your initials) on each bill of the money, then anoint each bill with three hoodoo oils: Lady Luck, Pay Me, and Alleged Money Drawing oil. Finally, dust Pay Me powder on all the money.

Use two vigil candles: Lady Luck and Lucky 13 candle. Put a little bath crystals in both candles. Put the prepared money under both candles, then light the candles and say, 'Let this money bring me more money.'

When you are done, put some Pay Me powder on your chest or bosom and go to sleep that way.

Let the money stay under the candles until it's time to go to play, then take it out -- and Good Luck to you.

This has worked for me five out of six times and the one time it didn't work it was because I did not do the work fully and I lost big time.

I went to bingo Saturday, March 12, 2005 and I won $575.00. This picture shows what it is like when it works really well: last week, March 5, 2005, i won $1300.00 and a DVD home theater, plus lots more money.

FORTUNE TELLING VERSUS 'PSYCHOLOGICAL' READINGS

If you ask around on the internet for lucky numbers, you will soon find many professional mediums and card readers, especially tarot readers, who won't serve number-seekers.

Why is this?

Well, in the first place, tarot readers often have no cultural or technical background in getting lucky lottery numbers for clients. They are willing to look into the future of your love life, but the future of your luck life -- your fortune -- is not part of their cultural repertoire. They are not Fortune Tellers, in the old and literal sense of that term.

In the second place, many modern tarot readers have been taught by their own teachers to view and to narrate your card reading as your own personal psychological 'journey' and if they believe that your 'journey' does not include winning the lottery, they won't look into your numbers.

If you ask for lucky lottery numbers, these folks will often come at you with the typical weak excuse that, 'If i knew the lottery number i would have bet and won it myself already.' This little piece of sarcastic rigamarole is meant to belittle clients and make them feel foolish for even asking. If you want a laugh, push right back at them by saying, 'That's all right, dear; i understand. Winning the lottery -- and helping your clients to win the lottery -- is not part of your own personal, sacred tarot journey.' Then walk away.

If you want lucky numbers, here are two great options:

For do-it-yourself numberology, take a chance on dream books and work-out systems. These handy lists and methods have brought satisfaction -- and wins! -- to many. Every region of the country has its favourites, and it doesn't hurt to shop around a bit, but from 'Aunt Sally's' to 'Billy Bing's' and from the 'National' to the 'Kansas City Kitty,' these time-tested compendiums of betting lore are both culturally and magically designed to get you what you want.

Alternatively (or additionally) you can consult a numerologist or numerological bibliomancer. These are readers who specialize in betting -- readers who will work out your personal lucky numbers for you. It's a great service and generally not costly. If you tune in to Professor Charles Porterfield on 'The Now You Know Show,' you can pick up his lucky numbers each and every Thursday for free -- he serves up these hot single digits and three-digit combinations weekly, with the slogan, 'If you hit, remember where you git!'

Good luck, and don't let anyone tell you that scoring a win is not going to be a part of 'your personal tarot journey.'

  • You'll find the best Casino card games on this list

How many Casino card games do you know?

If you play online games as much as I do, you know dozens of Casino card games. Some of them depend purely on luck, others leave some room to strategy and smart play.

Most of them are extremely fun to play.

But do you know which Casino card games are the very best ones? You can be sure you'll find them in this article.

The Most Iconic Casino Card Games

Some Casino games are so iconic, you won't imagine a Casino without them. Slots and Roulette always fall to this category.

When it comes to card games, Blackjack, Baccarat, and Video Poker are the most iconic games at a Casino.

Blackjack

Many different variants of Blackjack games will keep you entertained while it's easy to learn the rules of this game even for the beginners.

Difficulty levelSimple rules and no strategy needed
Games onlineBaccarat Pro, Punto Banco Pro, Punto Banco Pro Low Limit

If you found your way to Casino card games from the Roulette wheel or Slot machine, Baccarat (a.k.a. Punto Banco) should be the first card game you play.

Why?

It's also a game of chance. Whether you win or lose depends on luck, there's very little place for strategies.

Unless you're talented in edge-sorting. But we all know what happened to Phil Ivey when he tried that, right?

The only strategy tip you need when playing Baccarat or Punto Banco is this: never bet on the Tie.

The Punto (Player) bet has a house edge of 1.24 percent, the Banco (Banker) - 1.06 percent. Meanwhile, you'd lose $14.44 of every $100 you bet on the Tie.

Video Poker

Editor's rating10/10
Best forSlot fans and newbie Poker players
Basic rulesMake the best Poker hand by keeping and discarding particular cards in your 5-card hand.
Min/max bet0.25/25
Difficulty levelSimple rules and a semi-difficult strategy
Games onlineDeuces Wild, Double Double Bonus Poker, Jacks or Better, Joker Wild, Bonus Deuces Wild Poker

Video Poker is the only Casino card game that's not a table game. Instead, it's played on a machine just like Slots.

It may seem like a lonely or boring game from the first sight but it's anything but. If you choose the right Video Poker games, these machines have a payout that is better than Blackjack or Poker.

Set the coin value, draw cards to make a qualifying hand, and pick the right games to reach up to a 99.5 percent and higher RTP.

Best Casino Card Games for Poker Players

Let's be honest, some players swear by Poker games. So, naturally, at a Casino they play card games that resemble the card Poker.

It makes Oasis Poker, TXS Hold'em, and Casino Hold'em the best choice for Poker players.

Oasis Poker

Editor's rating8.5/10
Best forPoker players
Basic rulesBeat the dealer's hand with a better ranking hand. You get to see one card of the dealer's hand. Depending on your hand, you can switch some of your cards with new cards from the deck (it's paid). Then you raise (bet more and see the showdown) or fold (quit your hand).
Min/max bet1/40
Difficulty levelSimple rules but a semi-difficult strategy
Games onlineOasis Poker Pro, Oasis Poker Pro Low Limit

Gambling Games In Minecraft

Many Casino Poker games are pretty straightforward and Oasis Poker is no exception.

Both you and the dealer get five cards each. So, from the get-go, you know what hand you have. Until the showdown, you only know one card of the dealer's hand.

You can improve your hand by switching one or more of the cards with new cards from the deck. But it's paid and rarely advised.

Then, depending on your hand strength, you raise or fold.

Want a tip? Switch cards only if you're one card short to Flush, Straight, Straight Flush or Royal Flush. Fold when you have less than an Ace-King high.

TXS Hold'em

If you ever played Texas Hold'em Poker with your friends, TXS Hold'em Casino card game will be easy to grasp.

The only differences from the classic Texas Hold'em game are these:

  • you play only against the dealer (not the other players)
  • there's no point in bluffing - the dealer plays until the end
  • your call (to see Flop) bet is always double your ante while the Turn and River bets are always equal to your ante

It's important to keep in mind that you'll need to make an ante bet and call bet if you want to play. That's at least $3 per hand.

After seeing the Flop, you can either bet more before seeing the Turn and River or check without making additional wagers.

Basic rulesSimilar to TXS Hold'em Poker. You need to beat the dealer's hand. There's also a side bet available and the dealer needs to qualify for you to get better payouts.

Casino Hold'em is the easier version of TXS Hold'em game. Mostly because there are fewer bets involved - only ante and call bets.

The game is also faster - after you decide whether to call or not, you won't see the Turn and River cards one by one. You'll see them together right away.

But you can win both of your bets only after the dealer qualifies - has a Pair of 4s or better. If the dealer doesn't, the call bet is a push and only ante payout counts for the winnings.

AA Bonus is an extra side bet you can make. You'll win the bet every time your hand with the Flop (and only the Flop) shows a Pair of Aces or better.

Other Casino Card Games Worth Your Time

There are plenty of other Casino card games that every player should try. But today I'd like to share only two more games with you - Pontoon and Red Dog.

These games guarantee an exciting and different gambling session. You'll see.

Pontoon

Best forBlackjack players
Basic rulesSimilar to Blackjack. You also win by making a 5-card hand without busting. The dealer wins on all ties.

Pontoon is one of the most fascinating Casino card games you can play online.

Good Gambling Games

Essentially, it's a variant of Blackjack. But it features different terms and slight modifications in the rules.

For example, you get the best payout not only when you have a pontoon (a natural 21-point hand) but also when you have a 5-card hand.

After all, it's not that easy to draw until you have five cards without going bust.

Red Dog

Best forFans of simple Casino card games
Basic rulesThe dealer deals three cards: first and third face-up, the middle one face-down. You win if the middle card has a higher value than the first card but a lower than the third one.

Games onlineRed Dog Progressive

Red Dog is the perfect game for Casino newbies. Both the rules and the strategy of the game are as easy as it gets.

You make your ante bet if you want to play and you get three cards. The middle one is facing down.

If you believe the middle card will have a value that's in between the first and third cards - you make a raise bet. If you're doubting it, simply call and play with your current wager.

The payouts depend on the spread - the number of possible cards that would make you win by ending up in the middle.

It's important to understand the spread because you should always take it into consideration before you raise.

Gambling

As far as the Red Dog strategy goes, raise only if your spread is seven cards or more. Pretty easy to remember, isn't it?
