Statistical Analysis of All OLG Casino RNG and Live Table Games by RTP
After spending months analyzing and publishing a complete list of OLG Casino Slots by RTP, I decided I might as well do the same thing for their digital table games. So, here it is. I’ve also added an additional page for Video Poker RTPs.
As you probably know (since you’re reading this now), OLG.ca is the home of Ontario’s provincially owned, operated and regulated online casino. Every resident of the province age 19 and above is welcome to sign up, deposit, and partake in the digital gambling games available on this website.

As of Spring 2023, OLG Online Casino offers more than 260 casino amusements. Among these are 41 RNG and live table games; a number that continues to grow with each passing year. They include multiple variations of blackjack and roulette, plus other popular games like baccarat, three card poker, let it ride, pai gow and more There’s also a modest collection of live dealer games from the world’s leader in live casino, Evolution Gaming.
Each gambling amusements holds a varying degree of entertainment for different types of players. Everyone likes certain games more than others. But knowing which titles carry the highest and lowest RTPs is pivotal to a strategic player’s game selection. That’s where we come in.
This page is dedicated to all the table games at OLG Online Casino, listed by RTP. I’ve separated them into two categories – RNG Table Games (computer-generated) and Live Dealer Table Games (live studio streaming). Each category is further divided into sub-categories of Blackjack, Roulette, and Other. Use the table below to jump to the section you’re most interested in.
Note:The RTPs listed may or may not require the application of basic strategy to achieve. For example, blackjack RTPs are based on strategic performance, whereas roulette and baccarat RTPs are based on the placement of your wager. No further decisions can be made to impact the expected return in a roulette game. Hence some of the titles below will include a static RTP only, with others state “up to” a specific RTP.

This is the same game as Blackjack Poker & Pairs, featuring optional multi-hand game play and the Perfect Pairs and 21+3 side bets, plus the ability to Surrender any first two cards, so long as the dealer doesn’t have blackjack. These additional rules do not impact the RTP in any way.

First Person Blackjack
RTP = 99.29%
The idea behind First Person Blackjack is to give players the closest feeling of a live dealer table, without actually doing so. At any time, players can press the ‘Go Live’ button to make the shift to live dealer blackjack. Honestly, if you’re going to play this particular variant (with 99.29% RTP), you might as well play the live edition. Otherwise, you’d be better off playing IGT’s online blackjack tables, featuring 99.6% RTP.
When a player’s initial cards are a hard 15-18, they can choose to Zappit, swapping those for two new cards. If the player doesn’t hit a blackjack or they bust and the dealer busts with 22, the hand is a push. It’s a blackjack experience unlike any other.

RNG Tables – Roulette
RTP (High to Low)
Double Bonus Spin Roulette
RTP = 98.06%
This game is comparable to American Roulette, with 0 and 00 positions, plus an extra Bonus pocket that takes up a double-size space on the wheel. Players can bet on this section, but the house edge is tremendous at 14.28%. If the Bonus slot does hit, it activates two concentric bonus wheels, giving all players two more chances to win their bets.
A clean and intuitive online roulette game with crisp graphics and all the usual bells and whistles, like undo, re-bet, and a toggle-view racecourse betting grid for placing neighbours bets (voisins, orphelins, and tiers). History is visible up to the last 200 spins.
NetEnt’s First Person Roulette is the same as most games with European-rules. It features a single zero with all the usual inside and outside bets, plus racetrack betting on Neighbours (tiers, orphelins, voisins, and zero). This version comes with a lower minimum bet of $0.10, as well as the brand’s trademark ‘Go Live’ button, so players can jump into a live dealer roulette table at any moment.
This is the classic game of European Roulette, without the additional wagering options. The rules and odds are the same for all standard bets, with all the same functions and features. The only difference is the lack of a racecourse betting grid for placing neighbours bets (voisins, orphelins, and tiers).
American Roulette brings the iconic game of chance to the next level. Built by WMS, the crisp graphics and seamless animations of this latest RNG edition mimics the anticipation of a physical roulette table. It’s a perfect fit for desktop and mobile fans of the red, black, and green wheel – if you don’t mind giving up twice the RTP as the universally preferred European Roulette (see below).
American roulette by NetEnt is hardly any different from the WMS version detailed above. It features the same double-zero game, with the same unfriendly RTP of 94.74%. One noticeable difference is the depiction of a dynamic billboard to help track all hot and cold numbers.
Ultimate Texas Hold’em is a house-banked, one-on-one version of the popular Hold’em poker game. The player needs a better 5-card hand than the dealer to win. The Trips side bet is optional, paying odds if the player ends with a 3 of a Kind or better.
Extra Features: Toggle sound, voice; speed adjustment.
First Person Craps
RTP = up to 99.17%
Online craps games offer the perfect opportunity for beginners to learn the ropes. NetEnt’s First Person Craps comes with all the rules built-in, alongside an interactive tutorial to teach you everything you need to know. It’s not just for beginners, though. This is the same craps game the pros play.
Extra Features: Toggle sound, voice; speed adjustment.
DJ Wild Stud Poker
RTP = 98.98%
Compete against the Dealer in this 53-card game where the joker and all deuces are wild, substituting for any other card. Beat the dealer’s 5-card hand to win. The optional Trips side bet pays odds if the player’s hand ranks Trips or better.
Extra Features: Multi-hand up to 3 hands; toggle sound, voice; speed adjustment.
Baccarat
RTP = up to 98.94%
Which hand will be closer to 9, Banker or Player? Will they tie? The odds say no, and the house edge agrees. Strategy says stick to Banker bets, where the edge is lowest, despite a 5% commission. Feeling extra confident? Press Double Bet to Deal again at 2x the previous wager.
In terms of rules, NetEnt’s version of First Person Baccarat is no different than any other standard baccarat game. What does differ are the high-quality graphics, more opulent, more crisp, and arguably easier on the eyes. It also comes with a wide selection of side bets, although I don’t recommend them since pretty much all side bets are sucker bets.
Decks: 1
Objective: Beat the Dealer with High Hand
Base Wagers: Player, Banker or Tie
Optional Wagers: P Pair, B Pair, Perfect Pair, Either Pair, Super 6, P Bonus, B Bonus
Crazy 4 Poker is an exciting poker game that uses a standard deck of 52 cards, reshuffled between each game. The player and house each get five cards, but may only use four of them. Your best 4-card hand competes against the House’s best 4-card hand. Winner takes the pot.

Mississippi Stud Poker
RTP = 98.63%
This is the same as Three Card Poker above but with three differences. The graphics are smoother, the 6-Card Bonus is gone, and the Pair Plus pay table is altered, increasing the house edge from 4.4% to 7.3%. Moral of the story – only play Classic if you’re not interested in side bets.
Decks: 1
Objective: Achieve any paying hand
Base Wagers: Ante
Additional Wagers: 3rd, 4th, 5th Street @ 1x, 2x or 3x

I Luv Suits Poker
RTP = 98.41%
I Luv Suits is a unique 7-card poker game that pits the player versus the dealer. the object is to get the best Flush. The dealer needs at least a 3-card flush with a 9 high to qualify, while the player needs a 4-card Flush or better to receive a Flush Rush Bonus. A 4-card Flush pays a Bonus of 1 to 1, scaling up to 300 to 1 for 7-Card Flush. The best possible hand is a 7-Card Straight Flush, worth 8,000 to 1.
Extra Features: Flush Rush and Super Flush Rush Bonus Payouts
Three Card Poker
RTP = up to 97.99%
Ante up against the dealer, who needs Q-high to qualify. Basic strategy is simple – Play with Q-6-4 or better; Fold anything less. Side bets include Pair Plus and 6-Card Bonus.
House Edge: Ante/Play 2.01%, Pair Plus 4.38%, 6-Card Bonus 10.22%

Three Card Stud
RTP = up to 97.99%
3 Card Stud is virtually the same game as three Card Poker (above) except for two things. This version does not offer the 6-Card Bonus Side Bet, and offers a worse RTP of 92.7% for Pair Plus (compared to Three Card Poker’s 94.38% RTP). Long story short – don’t play Three Card Stud. Play Three Card Poker instead.
Extra Features: Toggle sound, ambience; speed adjustment.
Fortune Pai Gow Poker
RTP = up to 97.47%
Using a 53-card deck – where the Joker is wild, substituting for Aces, Straights and Flushes – players receive 7 cards and must make two poker hands; a 5-card and 2-card hand. Both hands must beat the dealer’s corresponding hands to win. An optional Fortune Bonus bet pays of the player’s 7 cards make a 5-card Straight or better.
Let It Ride Poker is like a 5-card draw poker game in reverse. Players start with three equal bets, and are dealt three cards. They have the option to remove one bet, or “let it ride”, before each of the last two community cards are revealed.
Decks: 1
Objective: Achieve Pair of 10s or better; anything else loses
