Begin with slots – they’re simple, fun, and relaxed. All you have to do is click, so there’s zero risk of brain drain. Try to stick to machines with a high RTP (around 96%), and you’ll be fine. Sometimes you win; sometimes you lose; either way, it’s all good.
Blackjack is even cooler. Simple rules, but winning requires skill. Study basic strategy (charts), and with enough skill you can have a shot at beating the house (house edge as low as 0. 5%).
I don’t hear enough about Baccarat. You just have to choose the banker and that’s it. House edge is extremely small (1.06%), and the game moves very quickly. No need for complicated mathematical formulas or strategy tables.
Forget Craps for now. It’s complicated to learn, and those bets… ouch. Put it off until later.
Play every game at the lowest stakes until you find something that resonates with you. Enjoy yourself, and don’t lose too much!
1. Slots: No challenge whatsoever. Just push a button. The odds are not great, but it's low-risk entertainment.
2. Blackjack: Good (if you know the basic strategy) because you are not competing against other players; the house isn't trying to beat you - it's just trying to avoid busting.
3. Baccarat: Small house advantage on banker bets. Easy to play; simply place your wager on the banker or the player.
If you’re a newcomer, slots are the way to go. Blackjack is more challenging; Baccarat involves some decision-making. Any of these will do!
- Slots: Just push a button and see if you’re lucky. Requires little skill, provides huge thrills.
- Blackjack: Master basic strategy. Try to get 21 or closer to it than the dealer without going over. House edge near zero for good players, 2-3 percentage points for amateurs.
Baccarat: Simply bet on whether the player or the banker will win. The winning chance is nearly half. Very simple and easy to understand.
Also good are Craps and Roulette – though those games have more rules to master. Don’t worry; once you get over the initial hurdle, all three can be fun enough to make you want to learn the others.
