What is Round History?

Round history is a casino game's log of recent rounds — cards, reels, stake and payout — used to check disputes and verify results, never to predict them.

What it means in practice

Round history, also called game history or a game log, is the per-game record of recent rounds inside a casino title: the cards dealt, the reel positions, the wheel result, the stake and the payout for each round. It is produced by the game itself or by the studio that supplies it, usually reaching back a fixed number of rounds or days rather than the whole account lifetime. Players use it to reconstruct what happened after a disconnection, to confirm that a bonus round paid what the screen appeared to show, and, in provably fair games, to retrieve the seeds needed to verify an outcome. It has no predictive value. In an RNG game each round is independent, so reading streaks or patterns out of a history panel is the gambler's fallacy, not information.

Why it matters

A definition like this one decides what an offer is actually worth. The same wording turns up in bonus terms, on payment pages and in game rules, and it is usually where a promotion’s real cost is hiding — so it is worth reading an operator’s own terms with this meaning in mind rather than the marketing above them.

You must be of legal gambling age where you live — 18 in most markets, 19 or 21 in others. Understanding a term does not make an outcome more likely: casino games are built to return less than they take over time. Set deposit and time limits before you play.
