Lightning Dragon Tiger Slot Review

Game Rules

Lightning Dragon Tiger is a super fast and easy two-card multiplier blitz game. The goal of the game is to guess which of the two cards dealt will be higher – the Dragon or the Tiger. Players can also bet on whether the Dragon and Tiger cards dealt will be of the same value, i.e. a Tie. Each round, a multiplier blitz suit is randomly selected, giving a chance to multiply the payout on a winning hand.

The game is played with eight standard decks of 52 cards each (excluding jokers). The cards have the following values:

• The Ace is worth 1 point, being the lowest card, followed by 2, etc.
• The King is the highest card (i.e., A-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-J-Q-K).

Betting Stage

The player places a bet on the Dragon, Tiger, Tie, or Suited Tie. A 20% commission will be added to each player’s total bet (this will be displayed on the players’ screens). For example, if you place a bet of $5, a 20% commission will be added to it, which is $1, making the total bet $6.

Lightning Round

Once the betting time has expired, the blitz round begins. In each round, a blitz suit (clubs, hearts, spades, or diamonds) is randomly selected. All cards in that suit are then assigned a random blitz multiplier (2x, 3x, 5x, or 8x). The blitz suit card and its multiplier are displayed on the players’ screens.

Main Game

After the blitz round, the dealer deals one card to the Dragon and one card to the Tiger. If a blitz suit card appears during the deal, it is highlighted to let players know they can expect multiplied winnings.

Game Result

If a player has placed a bet on a winning hand, the payout is made according to the payout table. If the player’s winning hand contains a blitz suit card, the winnings are multiplied accordingly. If a Tie or Suited Tie results in two blitz suit cards being dealt, the winnings are multiplied again.

The highest card wins. If the Dragon and Tiger cards are the same value, it is a Tie and half of your main bet (Dragon/Tiger) is returned. If the Dragon and Tiger cards are the same value and suit, it is a Suited Tie and half of your main bet is returned. Commission taken from returned Dragon/Tiger bets is not refunded.

Your original bet is added to the winnings. If there is no exposed blitz suit card in the winning hand, the standard payout applies. For detailed information on payouts, see the Payouts section.

Payouts

Your payout depends on the type of bet placed.

*Half of your main bet is returned in the event of a Tie or Suited Tie.

Please note that any failure in the system will result in the game round and all payouts being cancelled. The bets will be refunded.

Return to Player

The optimal theoretical return to player (RTP) is 96.97% based on Dragon/Tiger bets.

RTP for all bets:

Bead Road

Each cell on the BEAD ROAD board represents the result of the previous round. The result of the earliest round is recorded in the upper left corner. The data should be read from top to bottom in a column; then start with the top cell of the adjacent column to the right, and so on. A cell with a solid red fill means the Dragon has won. A cell with a solid yellow fill means the Tiger has won. A cell with a solid green fill means a tie. A cell with a result that has been affected by the blitz multiplier is highlighted.

You can change the language of the Bead Road board from English to Simplified Chinese or select the “Score Display Mode” by clicking/tapping anywhere on it.

Big Road

On the BIG ROAD board, the result of the earliest round is recorded in the upper left corner. A new column is created each time the Dragon’s winning streak changes to Tiger’s or vice versa. A cell with a red border means a Dragon win. A cell with a yellow border means a Tiger win. A cell with a result that is affected by the blitz multiplier is highlighted.

A tie is shown as a green line through the cell of the previous round. If the first round ends in a tie, a green line appears first, and after the Dragon or Tiger wins a round, a red or yellow border appears around the line. If two or more consecutive rounds end in a tie, the number on the line shows the number of rounds that ended in a tie.

Road Derivatives

True Dragon Tiger fans use the Big Eye Road, Small Road, and Cockroach Road boards to view data derived from past results recorded on the BIG ROAD board. The Big Eye Road board uses circles with borders, the Small Road board uses solid circles, and the Cockroach Road board uses slanted lines. However, on these Derived Road boards, the red and yellow colors do not correspond to Dragon and Tiger wins, and there is no way to break ties. On the Derived Road board, red symbols indicate a repeat, and yellow symbols indicate a less consistent, “fluctuating” shoe.

The BIG ROAD boards do not start with the first shoe deal. They start with the hand following the first hand in the second, third, and fourth columns of the BIG ROAD board. Once the BIG ROAD boards start filling, an additional red or yellow symbol is added based on the results of each round.

Shoe Statistics

The following statistics are displayed to you based on the current shoe:

• #- Number of rounds completed so far.
• Dragon – Number of Dragon wins so far.
• Tiger – Number of Tiger wins so far.
• Tie – Number of rounds that have ended in a tie so far.

Road Probing Scoreboard

The Road PROBING board contains an icon that will be added to the three Road Probability boards if the next round ends in a Dragon or Tiger victory. Click on the Dragon (D) or Tiger (T) button to see the icon that will be added to the board if the next round ends in a Dragon or Tiger victory.
