Figures are representative examples. Rules and payouts at a particular venue can materially change the mathematical cost.
| Game | Core mechanism | Player decisions | Representative lower-edge wager | Important variation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Roulette | Ball lands in numbered pocket | Wager selection only | 2.70% on European single-zero bets | American double-zero raises edge to 5.26% |
| Blackjack | Build a hand near 21 | Hit, stand, double, split; sometimes surrender | Often below 1% with favourable rules and accurate basic strategy | A 6:5 blackjack payout is materially worse than 3:2 |
| Baccarat | Closest final total to 9 | Choose Player, Banker or Tie | About 1.06% on standard Banker (5% commission) | Tie usually carries a much higher edge |
| Craps | Two-dice sequence with a point | Choose among many wagers | About 1.36% on Don't Pass; 1.41% on Pass Line | One-roll propositions can be far more costly |
| Casino Poker | Player hand compared with dealer | Fold or continue after viewing cards | Varies substantially by variant and strategy | Side bets often have separate, higher edges |
| Sic Bo | Total and patterns from three dice | Wager selection only | Often around 2.78% on Small/Big under common rules | Specific triples may exceed 16% house edge |
House edge is a long-run theoretical average. Any short session can produce a win or a loss, and no listed choice removes financial risk.
A useful reading order
Rules first. Payouts second. Risk always.
Begin with the game's objective and sequence. Then examine the exact paytable, identify optional side bets and compare the advertised payout with the real probability.
Finally, decide whether participating fits a pre-set entertainment budget. If the answer is uncertain, not playing is the clearest decision.
