How To Bet
The game has 9 paylines. You can bet 1-5 credits on each payline. In the LINE BET box, you see your current bet per line. Click on the left arrow (with a minus sign) to decrease your bet per line by one. Click on the right arrow (with a plus sign) to increase your bet per line by one. Click the MAX BET button to bet the maximum, which are 5 credits on each payline. If you have fewer than 45 credits, MAX BET is not enabled. Click the PLAY button to spin the reels. If you do not want to bet on all 9 paylines, you can use the LINES control to change the number of paylines you are playing. In the LINES box, you see the current number of paylines that you have selected. Click the left arrow (with a minus sign) to decrease the number of paylines you are playing. Click the right arrow (with a plus sign) to increase the number of active paylines.
Oil Dividend Bonus
Earn the "Oil Dividend" bonus by getting three or more Texas Ted symbols anywhere on the reels. If you get four or five Texas Ted symbols scattered anywhere on the reels, then your bonus is even richer!
Once in the bonus, Texas Ted invites you into his office where he writes you an oil dividend check. This is an instant award with no interaction required on your part - just sit back and receive your riches!
All bonus awards are multiples of the bet you placed when you triggered the bonus. The larger your total bet, the larger your oil dividend check award.
Big Oil Bonus
Earn the "Big Oil" bonus by getting three or more oil derrick symbols on a wagered payline. If you get four or five oil derrick symbols on a wagered payline, then your bonus is even richer!
Once the bonus is triggered, the screen shakes, rumbles, and gushes geysers of oil as it transitions to a map of the state of Texas divided into eight regions. Texas Ted will prompt you to choose which regions you want to place an oil derrick. If you triggered the bonus with three oil derrick symbols, then you will have three oil derricks to place. Similarly, if you triggered the bonus with four or five oil derrick symbols, then you will have four or five oil derricks to place, respectively. You can only place one oil derrick per region. If you place an oil derrick on a region, but then wish to change your mind, simply click on that region again to remove that oil derrick, and then pick another region.
Once you have placed your last oil derrick, then the oil pumping action begins! Oil spurts from each of your derricks at various intervals, starting and stopping multiple times, all the while increasing your bonus awards. You never know when an oil well might still produce an unexpected burst of oil worth more money for you!
Your oil derrick awards are multiples of your bonus triggering line bet. Your total bonus pay is the sum of all your oil derrick awards. At the end of the bonus, Texas Ted will celebrate your newly found fortune!
Gamble
After any award less than 3000 credits, you have the opportunity to gamble your win in a completely fair round of double or nothing.
Click the GAMBLE button after a win to Gamble an award. A deck of Gamble cards appears which always contains an equal number of red and black aces. Click RED or BLACK to guess which colour ace will appear next. If the colour you predicted is revealed, then your gambled money is doubled! If the other colour is revealed, then your Gamble bet is forfeited and the Gamble round is concluded.
Click the TAKE HALF button to deposit half of your winnings back into your main balance, leaving the other half available for further gambling. You can click TAKE HALF once before each Gamble try.
Click the TAKE WIN button to collect all of your winnings and end the Gamble round.
If you win 5 gambles in a row within the same Gamble round, or if your Gamble award reaches 3000 or higher, your Gamble round automatically ends.
With the deck of cards you have a 50:50 chance of revealing either a red or black ace with every choice. Though the history of the last ten outcomes (red, black) is also provided, each card chosen is completely independent.
Options
Clicking the OPTIONS button reveals a panel that allows you to customise the GRAPHICS QUALITY of the game. You may want to adjust the quality of the graphics to get the optimal animation performance on your computer. In BEST mode, the graphics look the best, but performance may suffer. The HIGH (default) and MEDIUM settings lower the quality but increase the performance. In LOW mode, the graphics are degraded, but the smoothest animation performance is achieved even on slower computers.

Is the game fair?
This game of chance is entirely fair and you are just as likely to win in any one game as you are in any other. Each game is generated in isolation and the odds of getting any particular outcome are exactly the same. Therefore if you have won money on the last five games there is nothing to say you will be less likely to win on the next just because you are on a winning streak.

The game does not download load properly. Why is this?
This problem can be broken down into two more specific complaints, which are are below. However, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us (contact info in the footer) if you are having difficulty.
1. The game is not displaying properly - This will be due to your screen resolution being too small. The game works on a minimum screen resolution of 800 by 600 pixels. To change your screen resolution simply go to your desktop and click on the right-hand mouse button. A menu will pop up and you will need to select 'Properties'. Another box will pop up and you will need to select 'Settings' from the tabs running along the top of the box. From here you will be able to alter your screen resolution.
2. The game is simply not working at all - This may be because you need to download the latest version of Flash Player. After loading the game, you will have received a screen prompt asking you whether you wanted to download the latest version of Flash Player. Downloading this will ensure that you will be able to play the game without any problems. If you ignored or switched the prompt off, you can go to the Macromedia website and download Flash Player from there.
The game seems to be running very slowly. It there anything I can do about this?
Unfortunately not. Our game relies upon your machine, and will run as quickly or slowly as your machine allows. Other than upgrading your computer and its facilities, there is little that can be done with regards to improving the speed of the game on any one machine.
