TIPS AND TRICKS

* Free Games Feature :
Spin up 3 Lighthouses to win 10 free games. During the free games, any pelicans spun up will stay in the window for the remaining free games. 5 more games can be won once during the feature. As the free games progress, the ukulele music changes from slower to fast in three stages.

* Gamble Feature :
When a win comes up, you are given the change to bet on the credits you've just won.
The gamble feature allows you to select either the full amount, or you can select a half gamble by toggling the Gamble button. If a half gamble is chosen with an odd number, the gamble is rounded (a 5 credit win = a 3 credit gamble; a win gives you 8 credits, but a loss will leave you with the remaining 2 credits).
If you select the right colour (Red or Black), your win is doubled. If you select the right suit (Heart, Diamond, Club or Spade), your win is quadrupled. If you select the wrong item, you lose the gamble and it goes back to the main game.
You can take a win at any time, but if you win 5 times in the one gamble feature, the game ends automatically. You can't gamble more than $10,000 however (but, would you?!).
If you win a progressive jackpot on the machine, you can't gamble the win, even if you actually won credits on the same spin the jackpot went off.
