Casino Games

There are several ways to divide up the games that you’ll find in your local online casino. Alphabetically, by type, by payout…but let’s take them one by one, and I’ll be happy to let you know what you can expect from each of them at an online casino.

Craps! That noisy, fast-paced game with all the confusing little bets and rule twists. You always wanted to learn how to play, because it looked like so much fun…maybe you tried to play once, and made a completely natural mistake that got everyone glaring at you. Well, fret no more because nobody is going to glare at you when you learn craps online. You don’t even have to worry about rolling the dice too far…or not far enough…or off the edge of the table…

Blackjack! So simple to learn, so rewarding of the strategic player’s skills. You’ve always heard that a good blackjack player can beat the house…well, that’s a little bit of an exaggeration, but you can reduce your handicaps until you and the house are about evenly matched. Which means that if you’re a smart player, you can win big often enough to make it all worthwhile…

Poker! I should say, Pokers! After all, there are so many of them to choose from on this wacky Internet. At any of the best online casinos, you can play some form of poker or another. At a specialized online poker room, that’s the only game they play (if by “only” you mean Texas Hold’em, Omaha, 7-card Hi/Lo, etc. etc.). At many of the great online casinos, you’ll find some great poker games as well, including games that you can play one-on-one with the computer dealer and exotic variations that you’ll never find at those all-too-serious poker sites.

Poker! Wait, didn’t I say that already? Well, this time I meant Video Poker, that brilliant cross between poker and slot machines. You’ll find all sorts of video poker machines online to reward your skill, from the classic Jacks or Better to some radical new types of video poker that could ONLY come to life on the World Wide Web.

And there’s more esoteric stuff, like scratch cards, which are really fun because the odds of winning a prize with scratchcards is very high, comparably-speaking.

Oops, stay with me, tour group! We still have several more exciting exhibits to see!
