From “MANQUE” to “MYSTERY JACKPOT”

The letter “M” in the Casino ABC also stands for numerous terms from poker, blackjack, roulette and slot gaming. Some of them describe playing positions and moves, others modern game formats or technical features. With us, you’ll find them explained simply and clearly – so you’re well prepared for your next visit to our MERKUR Casinos.

Manque

Manque is one of the even-money bets in roulette and covers the numbers 1 to 18. If a player places a bet on Manque and the ball lands within this number range, the stake wins. This type of bet is particularly straightforward and popular with players who prefer clear and simple decisions.

Middle Pair

In poker, a Middle Pair occurs when a player forms a pair using one of their hole cards and the middle card of the flop . This hand sits – as the name suggests – in the middle: it is stronger than many weak hands, but vulnerable to higher pairs. Middle Pairs are played frequently, but require a good feel for the situation and for the other players.

Middle Position

Middle Position refers to the seats at the poker table that are located between Early Position and Late Position. You don’t know everything yet, but you’re not completely in the dark either. Players in this position act after several opponents have already made their decision, but before the late positions take their turn.

That is exactly what makes this position so exciting: enough information to have a say – but still enough risk to keep things from getting too comfortable. Perfect for anyone who wants to play neither too cautiously nor too recklessly.

Miss

In poker, a miss refers to the situation where a player is hoping for a specific card to improve their hand, but that card does not appear in the end. This often happens, for example, when you are close to completing a flush or a straight and only one suitable card is missing.

The hope is high, the tension rises … and then, unfortunately, something completely different appears. The hand remains incomplete, leaving behind a small sense of disappointment. But that’s simply part of poker.

Multiple Deck

In a Multiple Deck game, several decks of cards are used at the same time, usually six or eight. This format is now standard in many casinos. The more decks are in play, the more difficult card counting becomes. The optimal playing strategy can also change depending on the number of decks used.

My Top Game

With the “My Top Game” feature, you can bring your favourite game directly to your machine. Each MERKUR game has its own three-digit code: simply enter it, confirm, and start playing. An overview of all codes can be found in the MERKUR Games World . Of course, you can also browse all MERKUR games in alphabetical order via the “All Games” button.

Mystery-Jackpot

The Mystery Jackpot stands for real surprises and special winning moments. It often involves attractive bonus prizes such as cars or trips.

The best thing about it: it can be triggered at any time and on almost all machines, regardless of the stake amount. So you don’t have to be a High Roller to have a chance. Only roulette and bingo are generally excluded from the Mystery Jackpot.

We regularly provide information about current Mystery Jackpots on this page. Further details and all the latest information can, of course, always be found directly on the pages of our MERKUR Casinos .
