Casino Card Games – Player Favorites
Casino card games include all house-banked card games that don’t revolve around poker. These are generally multi-seat, table-style games wherein players compete against a dealer, or banker, rather than each other. We expect this list will grow exponentially over time. Choose any title from the list to jump to its full directory of informative rules, variants, strategies and/or other featured links.
This section includes all casino table games that do not involve a deck (or multiple decks) of cards. There aren’t a lot of them, but those that exist have become quite popular in Canada. The ones currently covered on our website include:
Like the card games above, these are all house-banked titles played with cards. The difference is that the rules are all derived from poker. These games welcome players to compete, often alongside others, but only against the dealer in a one-on-one poker showdown. Like all house-banked games – and conversely, unlike PVP poker games – the casino has at least a minimal advantage (house edge) over the players. Select the title you want to learn more about to see a list of rules, variants, strategies, and/or other featured links.
Most of us are familiar with lottery-style games. Maybe you like to purchase a ticket for each Lotto Max draw, or just now and again, when the prize grows exceptionally high. Or, maybe you prefer instant-win scratch cards. And there’s always the ever-popular bingo games, often held for charity purposes. These types of games don’t have the best odds, but they do tend to carry extra large prizes for the luckiest of players. You can learn more about each of these:
Traditional poker games, like Texas Hold’em and Draw Poker, are not banked by the casino. By this, I mean the casino does not have a dealer actively participating in a hand. Players compete directly against, and only against, each other. The casino’s profit comes from antes or a rake (a small percentage of each pot charged when the game proceeds beyond an initial round of betting). Like other casino games, poker does involve an element of luck, but it is the skillful player that will win most often.
Slot machines are the bread and butter of any casino. They line the aisles and walls, where clustered banks of machines attract players to their myriad flashes and incessant chimes. They are notorious for eating through bankrolls in record time, but at the same time, famous for paying out substantial, sometimes life-altering prizes. Every online casino hosts hundreds, if not thousands of slots titles, in a range of feature models.
It would be impossible to lay out the specific rules and pay tables for each and every slot machine on the market (although we’ve done a pretty good job of it on our PlayOLG Slots page). For our directory, we offer you a variety of informative articles on the topics of slot machine types, how-tos, strategies and more. Choose a Type of Slot Machine to view links related to each type, or choose any of the feature articles below for more specific details on that topic.
Like slot machines, we’re going to work this section a little differently. Every video poker game is essentially played the same way. So, along with a few general education and strategy articles, we offer links to stylized information for individual titles, including manufacturers and brand-based return percentages, and in some cases, game-specific strategies.
