wins the pot. If you both have the same, then the dealer wins.

The following table shows the cash you can win.

on the hold you wish to change.

the bar which will be flashing on the screen. Just click on your choice and
the next stage will begin.
To the right of the screen is a spinning pointer. As you will see there are
more cherries than apples, more apples than strawberries, more strawberries
than stars and more stars than bars.
IF YOU CHOOSE:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A cherry and win, your winnings will double.
An apple and win, your winnings will treble.
A strawberry and win, your winning will be multiplied by four.
A star and win, your winning will be multiplied by five.
A bar and win, your winnings will be multipled by six.
If you lose then you will go back to spinning the reels.
If you get lucky and win then you will have the choice of collecting or
gambling again.
To the bottom left of the screen you will notice the fruit game.
To play this game you must get all the fruit in the following order:
CHERRY, STRAWBERRY, PLUM, TOMATO, APPLE, PEAR.
Whenever you get the next one, it will be highlighted. But if you win anything
you will lose all the fruit and start again.
Once you have all the fruit, the fruit game begins. You will have noticed
that each time you spin the reels, a dice is rolled. Now you must guess if
the next roll will be higher, lower or the same. If you're not sure you can
always take the cash.
You have two chances in this game. If you're wrong twice, you lose. Each
time you're right an arrow will move along, pointing to the cash you can take
if you think its too risky.
