POLL: What Level of Decision Making Do You Enjoy At Casinos?

Would you rather play:

1) a game that has little or no decisions to be made [other than betting strategy] - like slots, baccarat, andar bahar

2) a game with many choices on how to play, but the odds are not effected - like roulette or craps

3) more complex games with decisions that effect the house edge (such as good basic strategy [not card counting] bringing down the house edge and poor playing raising the house edge sometimes very high) - like blackjack, 3 card poker, etc.

4) just a variety of games because you enjoy them all as entertainment

5) simplicity / complexity does not matter because I want to win and will play whichever game has the lowest house edge at the moment.

I will start by saying it is a challenge to answer this question because it is somewhere between #4 and #5.

If I am having fun, I will play a variety (but maybe an emphasis on #2 because I enjoy playing with statistics).

If I am playing for real money, I suddenly spend considerably more time on low house edge games - which gets highly repetitious and boring.

Quite an interesting question. I'd probably lean towards 3 because blackjack is pretty fun for me. I wouldn't go into it wanting money because that would often make me sad I would say. 

You like mostly roulette and craps ? 😀

If I have a favorite game, roulette is probably it. I have barely touched craps as the only live casino I have gone to does not have it. But it would be fun to do more with it someday.

Hehe, yeah, I can tell. Dice never really appealed to me to tell you the truth, but maybe one day that will change.

Have a nice day.🙂

I enjoy making strategic decisions at casinos, balancing risk and reward, especially in games like poker and blackjack.

Do you also use any personal strategies in these games? I like Blackjack quite a bit, so that's why I'm asking. 😀

I'm a fan of the complex games with variable house edge. I love the challenge of learning new strategies and trying to outsmart the house. Blackjack is my go-to, but I also enjoy trying out other games like 3-card poker and baccarat.

Very good picks!

Since the house edge is meant to reduce the casino's risk of losing, I am curious if you have come across any good bonuses that let you play these games. I mean, no surprise to find a deposit bonus for BlackJack, but the wagering contribution is usually very low. Which makes perfect sense. I'm just interested to learn whether you know of any casino that offers such a bonus with better wagering contributions for card games.

Yes, I have personal strategies, especially in blackjack. I focus on basic strategic cards to minimize the house advantage and make informed decisions based on the dealer's upcard. In addition, I practice bankroll management to ensure responsible play and maximize my playing time.

Great, when you play blackjack do you also use a split or not? Do you ever take a risk and draw for example if you have 14,15 score after two cards? 😀

Slots is my favorite online, but I don't like it in physical casinos. Then, I prefer blackjack.

Different feeling, right?

Do you play blackjack online as well, though?

Very rarely, it's not the same as in person.

Absolutely, and I would be inclined to agree with your sentiments. How often do you go to the casino to play blackjack? 🙂
