Blackjack

The classic game in which the player tries to draw to 21, or closer to 21, than the dealer without going over (busting). Each player starts with two cards face up, then is allowed to hit (take another card) or stay (play that hand). The dealer starts with two cards as well, but one is face up and the other face down. Face cards (jack, queen, king) are worth 10, and aces are worth 1 or 11 (player choice). Receiving an ace and a 10 on your first two cards is the lucrative hand known as “blackjack.” Additional bets like “splitting” and “doubling down” are also available on certain hands.

Craps

Possibly the most exciting game on the floor, Craps often draws the biggest crowds. The game appears complicated to the newcomer, but the premise is actually quite simple. Players wage money on the outcome of one roll, or a series of rolls, of two dice by the “shooter.” The game is played in rounds, and the first roll of each new round is called the “come-out roll.” An array of player bets is available both for the come-out roll, as well as each additional roll, with payouts dependent on the likelihood of each outcome.

Roulette

Perhaps the simplest table game of all. In Roulette, a croupier spins the wheel in one direction then places and spins a ball in the opposite direction. After a number of revolutions, the ball eventually falls into one of 38 slots. If the ball lands in a number or color where you placed a bet prior to the spin, you win.

21+3

21 + 3 combines two of the most basic casino table games: Blackjack and 3 Card Poker. After placing your wagers (a required Blackjack wager and an optional 21 + 3 wager), you will be dealt 2 cards face up. If you made the 21 + 3 wager, use your 2 cards plus the dealer’s up card to create your 3 card hand.

The payout table for the 3 card hand is as follows:

Straight Flush 9 to 1
Three of a Kind 9 to 1
Straight 9 to 1
Flush 9 to 1

Normal blackjack rules apply for the required Blackjack wager.

TOP 3: A second optional side wager used in the game of blackjack in conjunction with the 21+3 wager. The TOP 3 wager can only be offered on blackjack tables with the 21+3 wager. Just as the 21+3 wager the TOP 3 wager is based on a three card hand using the dealer’s initial up card and the player’s two initial up cards to form a three card poker hand.

Ultimate Texas Hold'em

Texas Hold'em Bonus incorporates the elements of Texas Hold'em Poker with the addition of a bonus option. Each player and the dealer are dealt two cards. Five community cards are displayed in the center of the table. Players use their two-card hand along with the five community cards to make the best possible five card poker hand. Unlike Texas Hold'em Poker, players are wagering their hand against the dealer hand.

Three Card Poker

Easy to learn and fun to play, Three-Card Poker has gained enormous popularity in casinos. The game actually consists of two games: Ante-and-Play (in which you play the dealer to see who has the highest hand) and PairPlus (in which you simply wager on whether or not you'll be dealt a pair or better).

For Ante-and-Play, the player places an “ante” (bet) before receiving his cards. The cards are then dealt, and the player can fold and lose the ante or raise by placing a bet of equal money to the ante. If he chooses to play, one of three things can happen. The first is that the dealer does not qualify (have a hand of queen high or better) and the ante is paid out even money while the play bet is returned to the player. If the dealer does qualify, the player wins if his hand ranks higher than the dealer’s, resulting in a payout of even money on the ante and the play bets. If the dealer has the higher hand, the dealer takes both the ante and the play bets.

Argosy Casino Alton is a riverboat casino located in Alton, Illinois, a city in the Metro East area outside of St. Louis. It is currently owned by Penn National Gaming.

History[edit]

The Argosy opened in 1991 as a small riverboat casino named the Alton Belle owned by the Argosy Gaming Company and had 296 slot machines and 22 table games.^{[citation needed]} It was replaced by a larger riverboat, the Alton Belle II, in 1993, and cruised for one hour to meet legal requirements.^[1] In 1999, when Illinois allowed casinos to be permanently moored, the riverboat no longer cruised the river, although the casino still remains on an actual boat.

Unlike other competitors, the Argosy does not offer any lodging. Missouri allowed casinos in 1994, which quickly led to competition in the St. Louis metro area. In November 2004, Penn National Gaming, the current owner of the property, acquired the Argosy Gaming Company. Furthermore, in January 2008, Illinois declared all casinos smoke-free, while Missouri lifted a $500 loss limit in November 2008, both having increased negative effects on the Argosy. Revenue in November 2011 had fallen to $5.6 million, the lowest of all St. Louis area casinos.^[2]

The Argosy Alton was closed briefly in May 2019 due to flooding on the Mississippi River.^[3]^[4]

Casino information[edit]

The Argosy Alton has 827 slot machines and 12 table games. ^[5] There are three restaurants on the property and 1,341 parking spaces. The three dining options are: Journey, the Captain's Table Buffet, and Hops House.
