What types of games do online casinos offer?

Casino games generally consist of all online table games including poker, craps, baccarat, etc., as well as online slots, not to mention live dealer games, which we also call real-time games or live games.

Gaming machines

Online slot machines are one of the most favorite games of newcomers who have set foot in online establishments. And it is not for nothing that these games do not require special knowledge or strategy. In addition, casinos offer many bonuses that can be used in these games. Because of this, you will find many online casinos that offer attractive bonuses where you can play free slots (or even other types of games) and try to win real money.

As the name suggests, slots are a game of chance. But just because you have to rely on your luck to win this game doesn't mean you have to ignore the basic rules.

All slot machines work pretty much the same, whether they are 3 or 5 reel slots, progressive slots, mobile slots, mega slots, multiplier slots or multi payline slots. The different paylines of the slot machines are the targets you have to hit in order to hope to win. You have to press the button if you don't activate the lever, select the paylines, activate the reels by pressing "Spin" and cash out.

Unlike brick-and-mortar casinos, where you just need to insert a coin into a slot machine to play, on a computer, smartphone or tablet, you only need a credit card or any other means of payment. With online slots, you have a variety of betting options to choose from. You can choose the Bet one option, which allows you to select paylines one by one. The Bet max option allows you to place money on any possibility. You have other options like "Cash out", "Coin Value" or you can also bet on symbols. The Bonus Wild symbol, for example, allows you to increase your winnings if it combines with all other symbols.

Online slots, although some have specific rules, usually have excellent RTP (Return to Player Ratio). It is more than 94%. The slot bet ranges from €0.01 to over €10,000.

Board Games

These games, including roulette, blackjack, poker, craps, baccarat, keno, have in common that they are operated by a croupier, who may be an individual. Board games, in addition to the interactive side, require as much thought, prediction, as strategy.

Roulette

Many people attribute the origin of this game to Blaise Pascal, who invented it in the 17th century. It is indisputable that under the pseudonym Amos Dettoville he published in January 1659 The Theory of Roulette. But back to the casino game, the online version of which exists today: it is universal, simple, exciting to play and very popular (both in France and in Canada, Switzerland, the United States, etc.).

In this casino game, the player has to guess the squares where the balls will land. The player has the option to bet on one number or on several numbers (the roulette wheel can have 37 or 38 numbers). For example, by betting on a number between 1 and 36, the player is guaranteed to win 36 times their money bet. He wins 17 times the bet if he bets on two matching numbers and the ball lands on one of the two numbers. He wins his bet only once if he bets on a color, even or odd number… and the ball lands on him.

What you need to know is that inside bets (on one or a group of numbers) are the most profitable in roulette, even if they are harder to win. In other words, don't expect big wins if you choose outside bets (even/odd, colors, numbers 1 to 18 or 19 to 36). However, your chances of winning are higher with outside bets. If the ball lands on "0", the "en prison" rule allows you to return part of your bet if your bet was made with odds of 50/50.
