The Casino in HoboWars features four fantastic games for you to play!

The Casino also features the spectacular Lotto Land, a place where you can create and manage your own lottos.

Jackpot

Jackpot is a game of luck. Purchase a ticket for $50 and hope your number is the lucky one. If it is, the jackpot is yours. The current pot is determined by the number of tickets bought and if a generous hobo donated to the pot.

Slot Machine

The slot machine is much more generous than real life gambling, as on average it tends to hand out more money than it takes in. Although you will not gain money every time you play, it is still advisable to play your 50 games every day.

Additionally, your current winnings for the day, your overall lifetime winnings, and your single highest win are all recorded and available for you to see whenever you visit the Casino.

You get 50 games per reset.

Bet Cost
First Row $10
First and Second Rows $20

Texas Hold 'Em

That's right, folks, you can now play Texas Hold 'Em with your fellow hobos, in realtime!

In case you didn't know, Texas Hold 'Em is a variation of the standard card game of poker. The game consists of two cards being dealt face down to each player and then five community cards being placed by the dealer, a series of three then two additional single cards, with players having the option to check, bet, or fold after each deal.

Your primary goal of the game is to have the best hand by the end of the round.

For your convenience, here is the poker hand hierarchy:
