BEST TABLE GAME ODDS: BACCARAT, CRAPS, OR BLACKJACK?

 BEST TABLE GAME OODDS: BLACKJACK, CRAPS OR BACCARAT?

There are so many things to do in Las Vegas, including choosing shows and restaurants to eat at, as well as the best nightlife. Let us help guide you in your decision-making process.

You have one night on the Vegas Strip and $100 in your wallet. What game should I play? Which game will give the most for your money and which one should you avoid? The answer is that it all depends...

CRAPS ODDS

You can have an hour of gambling fun at the craps tables. You don't need to hear the chatter, the complicated side-bets, or the insider lingo. You just need to wait for a new player to throw the dice. Then, put $10 down on "PASSLINE."

The roller who rolls a 7 or 11 wins. If she rolls 2, 3, or 12, she loses. If she rolls another number, the game will continue. Let's assume she rolls a 9. She must now roll another 9 to get a 7. You win if she does. If you get the 7 first, you are out.

This is all there is to it. The odds of winning are good: the house edge is only 1.4%. This means that you'll lose less than a penny for every dollar you place. You can win a lot of money if luck is in your favour.

If you want better odds, bet the "DON’T PAY" line. It's the exact opposite of the PASS LINE. The casino odds are a pitiful 1.36 percent. That's.04% better. Keep in mind that everyone at the table will be playing the same PASS line so if you play the DON’T PASS line and win ....everybody loses. Plan to celebrate quietly. You don't have to wear Ohio State jerseys for University of Michigan home matches, but you might be.

BLACKJACK ODDS

Blackjack has the best odds of winning if you're willing and able to work hard. The casino edge is a minimum of.5 percent depending on the table where you are sitting. You'll lose just half a penny for every dollar that you gamble. To get these super-good odds, however, you must be familiar with your game. Can you hit 12 against a dealer that shows a 2. (Yes.) What is the best time to split 4s? Only when the dealer shows a 5 and a 6. What is the best time to split 8s? (Always.) These are the little decisions you will need to remember in order to have the best chance of winning.

You can also print out a cheatsheet and bring it with you to the meeting. 100 percent legal. It's illegal. The casinos won’t let you down. You might be mocked by other players, but once you have five massive stacks worth of quarters ($25 chips), you'll be the laughing stock of all the others. There are many websites that provide printable cheat sheets.

BACCARAT ODS

This game is not something you should avoid just because it's difficult to pronounce. It's very popular in Macau...and it's growing in popularity in Vegas. Why? It's dramatic, it's solid and it has simple rules. You can bet on either the Banker or Player. Both sides draw cards. Whichever side wins more than 9 wins. The house odds for baccarat are 1.01 to 1.24 per cent on the PLAYER or BANKER bets.

Many baccarat table limits are higher than those of other table games. However, don't let a minimum wager of $25 or $50 scare you away. Consider this: A high stakes game with a chance to win is better than a low-stakes game that has no chance at winning.

To sum it all, blackjack is the best if you take the time to learn how to play. You can drink, socialize, and win at the same moment by playing craps. Baccarat is a great game to play if you have the funds and you want a more refined experience with gambling, but still with great odds. How to Beat the House Advantage - Free
