Things Only South Africans Will Understand

Posted on January 11, 2019 by designteam

No matter where you are in the world there are things that only the nationals will understand. This is despite all the effort that you will put and all the questions that you will ask. Only the residents of that country will understand. In that regard, allow us to give you a few things that only South Africans will understand.

Only in South Africa

You don’t sit in front of a taxi: Only in South Africa will find people making sure that they do not sit in the front of the taxi. Trust us it has nothing to do with the fear of accidents; it does have a lot to with the fear of Mathematics. Therefore, if you know that you are bad at maths, do not sit in the front in a taxi.
Facts From Chappies: Chappies chewing gum is the gum that takes the cup. Not because of the great taste, however, but the facts on the gum. You are made to always buy a Chappies and read the facts. Somehow, it made you look intelligent when you recite them to your friends.
You can get perfectly good conversation in 3 different languages. Well, this one comes with the fact that we have so many different languages in S.A. we are it sounds weird to anyone who is not from Mzansi trying to listen to the conversation. One minute it is English, next Tshivenda then bam, Afrikaans.
That Van Dam song….There was that December when “Asambe Sobululala uVan Dam” was the national anthem. We do not know what Van Dam had done, but we were still going to kill him. This song was literally san by all age groups across the nation. We don’t blame them hey, it has such a catchy tune.
As we said, these are a few things that you can understand only if you have been to South Africa.

Inventors of Casino Games

Posted on January 10, 2019 by designteam

Everything needs to have come from someone or somewhere. That is why today we are looking at casino table game inventors. We need to know what made these people come up with such genius ideas. We mean, if it wasn’t for the inventors of casino table games, we wouldn’t have the games that we enjoy today.

Casino Table Game Inventors

Roulette

Before it was known as online roulette, it was just roulette. History believes that Blaise Pascal invented this game in France in the 17^th century. The inventor, however, did not intend to invent a game; he was in fact in search for the perpetual motion machine. However, a roulette wheel was made instead.

Craps

The game of craps was side steam of a game called hazard. The game was brought to New Orleans by Bernard Xavier Philippe de Marigny de Mandeville, a French man. However, the name that caught on was craps. How did this come to be? Well, the name craps was a Louisiana mispronunciation of the word crabs. This was a term used for the numbers 2 and 3, which in hazard are the losing numbers.

Baccarat

The inventor of the casino game Baccarat was Felix Falguire. The original name of the game was baccara, which translates to zero in Italian. This was because all the tens and the face cards were worth zero. The name that caught on was the French spelling baccarat.

Poker and Blackjack

These are 2 most loved online casino table games. However, despite them being so loved, the history of each of these games is not as clear as the ones mentioned above. As a result, there have been issues with trying to pinpoint who exactly invented poker and blackjack. Nevertheless, we are grateful for such inventors as we can now all make real money out of all these games. In that regard, log in and play at Punt Casino, S.A’s #1 casino for non-stop online casino gaming action.
