The games, old and new
Roulette
Multiplier games such as Lightning Roulette pay straight up wins at 29:1 instead of 35:1, and add random multipliers. The published RTP of 97.30% matches European roulette; the results swing much more.
Dragon tiger
One card each for dragon and tiger, highest wins. It is quick and simple, but a tie takes half your main stake, which puts the edge at about 3.7%.
Blackjack
New live formats seat unlimited players or add side bets. Check whether the blackjack payout and the doubling rules are as good as on a classic table.
Craps
Live and RNG craps are now common at new casinos. The pass line and free odds keep the same low edge as in a land casino.
Before you play
- Read the game's help screen for its RTP and payouts.
- Try the demo if there is one.
- Set a stake that suits the volatility: multiplier games swing more.
- Check how the game counts toward any bonus you hold.
