Thread: Help with terminology

Hi! I was wondering if anyone could help me with some Russian Casino Terminology. If I were to go to a Casino in Russia, what words would be on the machines? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There is only one label 'Insert coin'.

Jackpot would be better

Thank you for the replies. What would "insert coin" and "Jackpot" be in Russian? Also, how would you say "bet", "play", "spin" in Russian.

I bet you didn't get that humour. Sorry, my bad.
Actually, there are many labels in English because many of machines were exported. Another reason is because Russians don't read many labels and manuals anyway.

bet - ставка (ставок больше нет = ставки больше не принимаются = ставки сделаны = the bets have been made)
play - игра, играть
spin - I guess there are many variants for this word. I'd translete that as крутить or вращать.

To capergirl-
for "play" just to let you know... играть is the verb and игра is the noun. Just in case if you didn't know.

Thank you all for your help!

Spin - If that means to spin the roulette than it should be крутить рулетку

Capergirl, never get involved into russian roulette

Hi

3 of a kind
Royal Flush
Flush

Thanks for any help

Thank you so much...the site is wonderful!

That site is great for poker terms. A few I couldn't find though:

Ace
King
Queen
Jack


It would be great if someone could supply the Russian words.

Thank you,
Scott

Ace - туз
King - король
Queen - дама
Jack - валет

Ha - thank you for the terms!

Please excuse my bad Russian. If I want to say ace of clubs would it be?

туз трефа

или

туз трефов

or something else? I don't understand if "clubs" is supposed to be in genitive case singular or plural.

Thank you,
Scott
