Casino Games for Real Money – Choosing One to Play

Poker – One of The Most Popular Card Games in The World

 

TThis post tells how to pick a casino game for real money, prioritizing slots, roulette, baccarat and blackjack.

 

What to Play? Choosing Casino Games for Real Money

The gambling industry has so much to offer that newcomers may feel uncomfortable and uncertain. It’s better to learn about available games beforehand to make the first casino experience pleasant. There are lots of helpful lists of casinos and their features on the Internet, like the one with the best real money casino games by MoneyCasinosHowTo. We’ve tried to prepare a similar guide to the most popular games which you can play both offline and online.

Gambling for Real Money

Considering all the risks, remember the golden rule: casinos always win in the long run. There’s always a house edge: check the percentage to know what to expect. There’s no way you can beat the casino, but there are numerous options to make some profits. Before wagering your money, set some limits and don’t exceed them. Even if your goal is to hit a big jackpot, remember that just enjoying the process is anyway more important.
Return to Player percentage shows how much gamblers get back: for instance, an RTP of 95% indicates that you will get, on average, $0.95 for a $1 stake. Games differ in their RTPs greatly: obviously, the higher is this number, the more winning chances you have.
As for the casino games, they can be divided into two big categories: chance-based and skill-based ones.

Games of Chance

These games depend on pure luck. Players simply place their bets and wait for the results. You can’t apply skills or knowledge to influence the process. Slots are undoubtedly the most popular category that is qualified as games of chance. Apart from them, you can enjoy roulette, baccarat, as well a number of less known entertainments: craps, sic bo, bingo, keno.

Slots

Leading software providers launch new slots each month or even more often. There are thousands of unique titles, including branded ones designed in a partnership with famous franchises like Game of Thrones or Marvel’s Avengers.
Slots require no specific actions from you – just start spinning. There are various types of them, from traditional 3-reeled slots to ones with multiple reels, paylines, and screens. Players love progressive jackpots like Mega Moolah where the total prize amount increases with each bet.

Roulette

Roulette is a big wheel with numbers divided into two colors. The more specific is a betting condition (for example, guessing a number instead of just a color), the more you can get.
There are three basic types of roulette:
European: the traditional version with 37 sectors
American: features two zero sectors and a low RTP (94.74% compared to 97.3% in the previous type)
French: the variation of European roulette with more loyal rules
You can also find mini-roulettes with fewer numbers, multi-ball or multi-wheel examples.

Baccarat

This card game is similar to blackjack, but neither players nor a dealer can influence the process. In baccarat, participants get two cards and, sometimes, draw a third one when specific conditions are met. Who earns 9 points, wins. Gamblers can wager on three fields: Player, Bank or Tie. Average RTP is 99%.

Other games

Land-based and web casinos sometimes offer less popular games of chance:

  • Craps (a 98-99% RTP): a traditional dice-based game with bets on numbers or sums
  • Sic Bo (a 96-98% RTP): chinese craps with three dices and more betting options
  • Lotto (a 70-90% RTP): players fill cards with numbers to build a winning combination
  • Money wheel (a 75-90% RTP): a kind of roulette without colors

Games of Skill

These games don’t depend on chance: players can use their skills and experience to change the results. But luck has a definitive impact here as well.

Poker

Probably, it’s the most well-known card game. Poker players compete with each other, trying to build the most powerful combination. In the most popular version called Texas Hold’em, they can select from two cards on hand and five cards on the table. Math skills are extremely useful in poker, as you have to count cards and use probability theory.
There are dozens of game variations with different rules. Here some of them:

  • Omaha: players have four cards on hand and five on the table
  • Stud: players have seven cards on hand but four of them are visible for everyone
  • Draw: players can redraw cards if they want
  • Pai Gow: players collect two hands: with a five-card combination and a two-card one

Poker is, to a large extent, about math but also about emotions. Bluffing is an inevitable part of the game. By mastering bluffing skills, players can manipulate the process and make opponents believe in what isn’t actually a true situation.

Blackjack

Here’s another popular card game where the main goal is to beat croupier’s hand and don’t exceed 21 points. Similarly to baccarat, players draw cards and count their value. However, in blackjack, they can ask for extra cards or wait for the dealer’s move. Different versions may feature one or more decks with re-shuffling, as well as several betting options and extra rules like splitting pairs or doubling stakes. This game is suitable namely for those gamblers who are good at cards and math but don’t want to compete with other players. An average RTP is more than 99%.

Choosing the Best Real-Money Game

The choice always depends on personal preferences. First of all, decide whether you want to relax or be involved in an intense social game which requires some skills. There are lots of options for both intentions. After choosing a game you want to wager in, you’ll see that there are lots of variations, including rather unexpected and exotic ones. Explore the world of real-money gambling to the fullest.
