Gaming

Being a popular seaside tourist destination, Naama Bay attracts a large volume of visitors from all over the globe. For that reason, the people running this establishment made sure to decorate it in an authentic way, to provide a unique gambling experience to its consumers.

Drawing inspiration from the Pharaonic period, the interior of the casino perfectly combines contemporary and traditional aesthetics. Featuring a bit of both worlds, it allows guests to enjoy a relaxed club-like atmosphere.

When it comes to featured games, players can try their luck either with immersive slot machines or some of the many table games featured. American Roulette, Blackjack, Caribbean Stud Poker, and Three Card Brag are the options available on these floors.

Often described as the “longest-standing British representative of the Poker family”, Brag is a card game born in the 18th century in Britain. Classic Brag is a three-stake game during which players ante three stakes.

On the other hand, the contemporary variant, known as Modern Brag or Three-Card Brag is a single-stake game with slightly different rules. For starters, it’s a single-stake game, which starts to the left of the dealer. When it comes to hand ranking, the sequence is more or less the same as in the five-card hands of poker but it comes with certain variations created by the differing odds of a three-card hand.

Caribbean Stud Poker, also called casino stud poker, is one of those games we can freely say bears the status of a staple of casino gambling. Although its rules derive from five-card stud poker, it differs in the fact that it is played against the house rather than against other players. This means that players don’t have the option to bluff, meaning it requires lots of concentration to be played well.

Part of the large family of banking games known as “21”, which also includes Pontoon and Vingt-et-un, Blackjack is one of the most widely played table games nowadays. Instead of competing against each other, players compete against the dealer aiming to reach 21 points without going over.

Most likely originating from the Italian game Biribi, Roulette is a simple-to-play game during which consumers can place a bet on a single number, various groupings of numbers, the color, odd or even and high or low numbers. Different types of Roulette include French Roulette or European Roulette (37, with single zero), American Roulette (38, double zero), and Sands Roulette (38, triple zero).
