Casino games have the glitz and glam of a sophisticated society. It can be easy for interested players to be put off by the knowledge they lack. However, most of the games are easy to figure out, especially if you’re excited at the prospect of winning money.

Roulette
Roulette is an easy game to play and a simple one to understand. When you play the game you simply bet on a number, color, or specific combination such as “double figure”. If the ball lands on your bet, you win - simple!
Now you know how to play, let's dive into how it works. There is a wheel with 37 segments on which a ball could land. The segments are split up between red and black colors, although sometimes there are green ones added in. The segments also have numbers written on them. Once you have picked your bet, the wheel is spun and a white ball is dropped onto the board.
It’s a game of chance, which can be easily picked up in a brick-and-mortar casino or an online one.

Baccarat
Baccarat is a simple card game, where the aim is to get as close to 9 as you can. If you go over 9, the total of your hand is reduced by 10. For example, you may be dealt a 5 in the first round. You look around the table (including the dealer in some cases) and consider if 5 is close enough or if you should shoot for a higher figure. Some people are sticking to their first card and others are asking for round 2. In this example, we ask for round 2.
The second card arrives, and it ends up being a 6. 5 plus 6 is 11. As this is over 9, we have to minus 10 which means our final overall number is 1.
The game is simple but each system will have different rules about how many rounds you can have.

Slots
Slots are another easy online casino game. The aim of the game is to get as many pairs, triple pairings, or quadruple pairs as possible. In a brick-and-mortar casino, you would do this by pulling a lever and watching the symbols spin in front of you. Online, you press a button for the same effect.
No skill is needed for the game, as everything is random. When the symbols stop swimming you look for a pairing, but don’t worry the game will notice if one has been found and will sing a song fit for a winning player.

Blackjack
Like baccarat, online blackjack is a card game with the goal to reach a specific number. This time the number you want to reach is 21, and if we go over you’re out of the game. You can ask for as many cards as you want before you decide to stick with what you’ve got, but fly too close to the sun and you can easily get burnt.
This game can be beat with strategy, but it often feels like playing chicken. Do you think adding another card to your hand will help or hinder you? What are your chances?
In this game, aces can be used as 1s or 11s. They are safety cards, which allow you to ask for another hit without much risk. Picture cards are worth 10, which means that you are way more likely to receive a 10 over anything else. Keep that in mind when you ask the dealer to hit you.

Dice
So far we have been rather specific with our suggestions of casino games for beginners, but this time we’re going vague. There are hundreds of dice games that you can play online. The range is so vast, that we couldn’t pick just one out from the crowd.
In the games you will be required to roll some dice and hope for the best, they are all based on luck.

Poker
Poker is a tricky game, and might not be the best one to offer to beginners. However, if you get the hang of the rules, it could be the game that hooks you into online playing. First, you need to learn what card combinations can beat other card combinations. New players often have a “cheat sheet” with these combinations laid out to help them as they play.
Once you know the hierarchy you can get into the game. You are given 2 cards which you can look at. Seeing the cards you can decide if you want to play or not. If you want to play you need to bet.
Then the dealer places 2 or 3 cards on the table. With this new information, you get to decide if you want to play or raise the stakes. As you do this you also need to figure out if the players on the table have a good hand or bad one. That’s the hard part.
Summary
Each of these games is easy to understand. Some require a bit of help, like poker, but each can be picked up in a matter of minutes.
Get started and have fun!
