Easiest Game for Beginners

[rakoom2002]

Hey guys,
I wanna play something besides slots this time around in vegas and was wondering what game you guys suggest playing. I know the basic rules of poker and blackjack. I want something that is fairly easy to learn, in which I dont need to know super complex strategies to fair decently at. Thanks.

I started with BJ, then Craps, then roulette... But it seems any game with a low min and friendly dealer or crowd to show you the ropes is good... Can't really ask questions in poker... Or, atleast its not a good idea.

Pai Gow: You can usually have the dealer set-up your cards.

Baccarat: Flip a coin and bet.

Easiest to play would be roulette it's a simple 3 step process...1. Place bet 2. Watch marble spin and fall 3. Watch dealer take in your bet and repeat.

Easy to learn and have a chance of winning is black jack. The gift shop in the hotel should have a basic bj strategy card. Read it and stick with it. You can deviate if you want but as a new player make sure you stick to the dealers left. Never sit on his far right until you can play well since that seat is the anchor for the table.

Also, in the daytime most casino floors have tables set up to teach you most any game they have. Just gotta find it. And lastly, wizardofodds.com is a great resource for learning any game.

Pai Gow is great, hard to lose (or win) ... good way to kill some time and not a lot of bankroll.

Craps has a few methods that are very simple and still a lot of fun

Baccarat - like was said, go one side or the other and wait.



.... my suggestion is hop on youtube and search for videos on ways to play these games, nice easy way to to learn before you get there.

Slots.

Roulette is the absolute easiest table game. You just pick a square and place your bet. No thinking or skill required.

Haha... I was trying to promote them playing the Pass Line, I swear!

... a few weeks ago I was using my vile strategy and had tripled my bank roll (only from $100 --> $300) so took the $150 of the money I was up and started playing passline and hardways and ended up winning another $500... it felt good to cheer with everyone.

Im a five count man myself...when I play. I cannot simply discipline myself to bet small so the swings are what make me cry and keep me coming back for more.

Thanks guys. I think I will try craps, roullette, or BJ.

Just to be clear roulette is quite literally the worst table game for the player.

Casino War is by far the easiest

1. Unless you are very good at poker, all games are against you, so enjoy the gaming rather than focusing on having to win.
1.a. Expect to lose in the long run
1.b. The longer you play, the longer your expectation will come true.
1.c. Set your budget and dont for any reason exceed it.
2. Craps will give you the best odds, but as long as you stick with the best bets, it can be pretty boring.
3. Blackjack is the next best bet but requires knowledge of the game. As mentioned previously, a little pregame study will pay dividends.
4. If you are so trashed you cant remember how to play blackjack to how to bet on the pass line, try black or red on roulette.
5. If beyond #4, text me and we will play poker.

Bacarrat is the best odds but generally the highest minimums and not as fun as a low min bj or craps table b/c there are usually other players betting $500+ per hand and are very superstitious. When I want to pad my bankroll i play bacarrat, when i want to drink like a sailor and have a good time i go for craps. If Im somewhere in the middle then its bj.
