Single Pick (Mega888): betting on the suit of one card

Single Pick is the simplest card game in the Mega888 lobby: guess the suit of the next card. The five bet boxes, the joker rule and the round tally, from two screenshots.

Single Pick is a one-card guessing game: bet on a suit, press START, one card is turned. It takes a few seconds a round, and everything you need is on one screen.

The screen

On the left, a single card sits in an ornate gold frame against a sky-blue background. Before a round it shows a red patterned back; in the second screenshot it shows a jester in red and yellow. The right side is a large empty grid, the history sheet, with a counter bar above it.

The counter bar reads Round No. and then five small tallies: spade, heart, club, diamond and JOKER. After one round the diamond tally reads 1 and the grid's first square shows ♦5, the card from round 1.

The five bet boxes

Along the bottom are five buttons with a small stake display beside each:

  • Spade x3.8
  • Heart x3.8
  • Club x4.0
  • Diamond x4.0
  • Joker (crown icon) x20

Tap CHIPS to set the chip value; the shots show x1000 and x50. Tap a suit to place it. In round 2 the player has 50 on hearts and the balance reads 2754, down from 2854 in the first shot.

A line above the balance reads JOKER: return the other bet. Taken at its word, a joker gives your suit bets back. The CLEAR button wipes the table and START deals.

Pacing

A given suit comes up roughly one round in four, so x3.8 or x4.0 sits close to the real odds, not above them. The joker at x20 is the long shot. Keep the chip small and count rounds rather than chasing a colour. For a dice game in the same lobby, see Sic Bo (Mega888). The Mega888 overview has the full list. To play, open a Mega888 account.

Troubleshooting and questions

What does 'JOKER: return the other bet' mean?

It is printed above the balance. Read literally, if the joker comes out, your suit bets are handed back rather than lost. The screenshots do not show a joker round, so check the help page.

Why do clubs and diamonds pay more than spades and hearts?

The screen does not explain it. It is simply the table's payout: x3.8 for the black spade and red heart, x4.0 for the club and diamond.
