The legendary King Arthur brandished a magic sword, Excalibur, from  
which we take our company name. With this unique weapon in his hands,  
he could not be vanquished.  
Although Excalibur Electronics can’t claimthe magical secrets of Merlin,  
King Arthur’s court wizard, sometimes our patented technology may  
make it seem as if we could. The Casino Calculator is another unmatched  
innovation of Excalibur Electronics.  
We make you think.

Installing the Batteries  
Your Casino Calculator uses two AA batteries (not  
included). To install the batteries, carefully turn the  
game over so the top side is face-down on a soft sur-  
face. Use a small Phillips screwdriver to remove the  
screw. Lift off the battery com-  
partment lid. Install the batteries,  
making sure to match the polarity  
(+ and -) inside the battery com-  
partment (see diagram). Place the  
tab of the battery compartment lid in its slots and  
close the compartment door. Replace the screw and  
tighten gently.

After selecting the game, press START DEAL once to  
continue the game.  
Betting  
No matter which game you select, you start off with  
a bankroll of $2,000. To determine the amount of  
your bet, press the BET keys until the amount you  
want to bet is displayed. (After the first hand of any  
game, you can repeat the amount of your initial bet  
by pressing BET.) After each hand or spin, the  
amount you have won or lost is briefly displayed.  
Then your new total is displayed.  
Starting the Game  
Whatever the game, press START DEAL. If you are  
playing Blackjack, Draw Poker, Baccarat or Deuces  
Wild, Casino Calculator will begin dealing the hand. If  
you are playing Slot Machine, your Casino Calculator  
will “spin” the reels.  
Game Rules  
For the specific playing rules of each game, see sec-  
tions below.  
BLACKJACK  
The game of 21, or Blackjack, has become the most  
popular casino card game.  
 
5
add up to 21, or as close to 21  
as possible, without exceeding  
21. The Ace is worth 11 points  
unless this amount takes a hand  
over 21, in which case the Ace  
counts as 1. All other cards  
count for their face value. You  
compete only against the dealer.  
How to Play  
Just like a professional dealer, Casino Calculator will  
deal you two cards and deal himself two cards, only  
one of which you can see. You must then decide  
whether to press STAND to draw no more cards, or  
to press DEAL to take another card. Remember, if  
you go over 21, you automatically lose! When you’ve  
decided to stand, Casino Calculator finishes its hand.  
If your final count is closer to 21 than Casino  
Calculator’s count, while not exceeding 21, you win  
an amount equal to your bet, and get your betting  
money as well. If you hit a blackjack, you win twice  
the amount of your bet. If your count is the same as  
Casino Calculator’s, it’s a tie (or push) and nobody  
wins, and you keep the money you’ve bet. If your  
In Blackjack, you must decide whether to “stand”  
(draw no more cards) or “hit” (receive another card  
by pressing DEAL) until you feel that the total count of  
your hand is closer to 21, without going over that  
number, than the cards the dealer will draw.

Buying Insurance  
Insurance is a protection side bet for the player and  
pays 2-to-1. When a dealer has an ace showing, the  
word “INSURANCE” will flash. At this point, you  
have the option or each player has the option to take  
insurance by placing up to half of his bet in the insur-  
ance square. This means you’re betting that the deal-  
er has 21. (The bet gets its name from the idea that  
the player is buying insurance against the dealer  
having blackjack.) If a dealer has 21, you win the  
insurance bet. You lose this side bet if he doesn’t.  
(Tip: Professional Blackjack players consid-  
er buying insurance a bad strategy.)  
CASINO DRAW POKER  
Draw poker is one of the most  
popular card games in the  
world.  
Object  
The object of poker is to assem-  
ble a hand that is a pair of Jacks  
or better.  
How to Play  
Casino Calculator will deal you five cards, showing  
both the number (or, in the case of face cards, a let-  
ter) and the suit of each card. Above and to the left  
of your hand, the words “DRAW or HOLD” are dis-  
played. You have the option of replacing from one to  
all five cards. Mark any cards you want to keep (for  
example, any two of a kind) by pushing the HOLD key  
 
that corresponds to the card or cards. HOLD 1 keeps

The hierarchy of winning poker hands, from best to  
worst, and their payoffs, are given on page 9.  
DEUCES WILD  
Deuces Wild is played the same as draw poker, but  
the four 2’s (deuces) in the deck can be substituted  
for any other card, for any rank, in any suit. For  
example, a deuce of spades could be used as the fifth  
card to complete a straight flush in hearts. In Deuces  
Wild, you should never discard a deuce.  
Royal Flush  
1,000 times your bet  
4 Deuces  
500 times your bet  
Royal Flush with deuces  
100 times your bet  
5 of a kind  
50 times your bet  
Straight Flush  
20 times your bet  
4 of a kind  
Because it is easier to put  
together hands to win, you  
must assemble a hand that  
is at least three of a kind.  
The payoffs are also differ-  
ent from draw poker (see  
chart on left).

Baccarat is originally a  
French game and has fasci-  
nated players since the  
1400s. It is played by two  
or more players using  
cards, a betting mat and  
chips. Baccarat has rigid  
rules; there is no skill  
involved or choices to  
make. The game is all  
chance or luck. A beginner has as much chance as a

How to Play  
Casino Calculator will be the dealer (also called the  
croupier). It will deal the player two cards. Then  
Casino Calculator will deal itself (the bank) two  
cards.  
Object  
The object of baccarat is to predict whether the deal-  
er or theplayer will win the hand, or if the hand will  
be a tie. After selecting Baccarat (3) and pushing  
START, press DEALER, TIE, or PLAYER.  
A winning hand is the one that comes the closest to  
the ideal total of 9 after play is finished. Face cards  
and tens count for nothing. The ace counts as one, the  
deuce two, the three as three, etc. If the sum of the  
cards’ points is 10  
or more, only  
the last digit  
Player’s Third Card Rules  
Player must:  
Receive a card.  
No third card.  
No third card.  
First 2 cards total:  
counts.  
For  
example, if a  
hand shows a 9  
and an 8, its  
total is 17, but  
its score is only  
7. A hand that  
1, 2, 3, 4, or 5  
6 or 7  
8 or 9 (natural)  
consists of a 7 and a 3 totals 10, so its score is 0.  
Strict rules govern whether a third card is dealt.  
(See chart below.)  
Rules for the banker hand: If the banker's first two  
cards total 7 or more, then the banker must stand  
 
10  
mined by the whether the player drew, and if so the  
value of the player's draw card, as shown below. If  
the player’s hand does get a third card, the six rules  
below govern whether the bank’s hand gets a third  
card:  
A. If the bank’s hand totals 2 or less, the bank gets  
another card.  
B. If the bank’s hand totals 3, the bank gets  
another card—unless the player’s third card  
was an 8.  
C. If the bank’s hand totals 4, the bank gets a  
third card—unless the player’s third card is a  
0, 1, 8, or 9.  
D. If the bank’s hand totals 5, the bank gets a  
third card—if the player’s third card was a 4,  
5, 6, or 7.  
Payoffs  
If you’ve predicted the right  
result, you win an amount equal to  
your bet.
