CANTOR GAMING / KISMET

Introduction

In 2007 Cantor Gaming acquired Kismet. A short time later, the software name changed from Kismet to Cantor Gaming. Graphics and general quality are below average. A fast play option is available for most games. A highlight of the software is the improved rules of many games, reducing the house edge below standard. For example, there is 4% commission in baccarat, instead of the usual 5%. In Pai Gow the player may be banker on alternate hands, reducing the house edge to ~1.45%. Game selection is above average for a smaller group. There are 7 varieties of blackjack to choose from, including some unique games that are not found elsewhere, like Ties Win blackjack. 3-reel slots with a house edge below 2% are available. Video poker is a weak point. Multi-hand video poker is not available. Cantor Gaming has a good reputation among the online gaming community.
