Casino Gaming Activities
Within the grandeur of the historic Mess, there will be a dynamic and colourful Casino Gaming Room, where Spring Ball guests will be tempted to immerse themselves in popular Casino games, such as Blackjack, Craps, Poker, Roulette and Baccarat, all without the risk of losing too much real money ...
The Casino Gaming Experience, will deliver a unique and exciting gaming experience, which will be fondly remember by all Spring Ball guests.
One of the more specialised games that guests may be tempted to play is Baccarat. What is Baccarat? Baccarat is the game associated with junkets, high limits and private rooms. The object of the game is to bet the player's hand or the banker's hand. The winner will be the hand that is closest to 9. Picture cards have the value of 10, aces have the value of 1 and other cards count as face value.
If the value of a hand exceeds 10 then only the right hand digit will be counted. For example:
10 + 7 = 7
8 + 6 = 4
Ace + 2 + 5 = 8
The profits/proceeds from the Casino Packs will be donated to Legacy.
The Casino experience is being supplied by Gaming Nites.

Tarot Card Readers
Let's cultivate the ancient wisdom of Tarot cards in today's modern world ...
The Tarot is a deck of cards that originated over 500 years ago in northern Italy. Although the Tarot was first used in a game called Triumphs, it was quickly adopted as a tool for divination, and popularised by occult societies such as the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn.
The early Tarot symbolism was deeply rooted in Medieval and Renaissance Europe, but over the centuries it has grown to incorporate everything from Astrology and Kabbalah to Runes and the I Ching.
