House edge by game, from best to worst
House edge is the casino's built-in advantage. Lower is better for you. Skill games like blackjack reward good play; slots and roulette are fixed.
Blackjack (basic strategy). ~0.5%
Baccarat (banker bet). 1.06%
French roulette (even bets). 1.35%
European roulette. 2.7%
Slots. 2โ6% (RTP 94โ98%)
American roulette. 5.26%
Keno / scratchcards. 10%+
Blackjack and video poker have strategies that reduce the house edge. Slots, roulette and baccarat don't; your choices don't change the odds, only the variant does.
Slots usually count 100% towards wagering; table and live games count 10% or less. If you play tables, bonuses are rarely worth it.

4 questions
Which casino game is easiest to win?
Blackjack with basic strategy has the lowest house edge, but no game has odds in your favour over time.
Are casino games rigged?
Not at licensed casinos. Games are tested by independent labs and results are random.
Can I play casino games for free?
Most slots and RNG table games have a demo mode. Live games require real money.
What's RTP?
Return to player: the share of bets a game pays back over time. 96% RTP means a 4% house edge.
