One of our most important regular features here at onlinecasino.ie is when we attempt to provide useful online casino tips to help new casino games players in particular get maximum enjoyment and reward from their online casino experience. This month we would like to talk about the odds of winning when playing a variety of casino games. When gambling on a sporting event the odds are very clear, at least as far as the bookmaker is concerned, but when playing casino games the odds can be slightly more difficult to understand. Some online casino games are of course played for fixed odds against the house so the odds of winning and the pay-out are very obvious, but others are not so clear. For example the pay-out when playing blackjack is well defined but what are the odds of getting a winning hand. An experienced blackjack player will usually know the statistical odds of a particular card being dealt, and these are not too difficult to calculate as we have done several times in the past on this site. Things become a little more difficult when we look at playing casino games such as Roulette however, because of the opportunity for players to place multiple bets on each spin. The odds of each chip being successful are clear and reflected in the pay-out, but as soon as we start to place more than one bet the potential winning odds become far more complicated. Take a simple hedging bet for example, with a bet on a row at 11/1 and a bet on black at even money. Even if both bets are winners the pay-out is just 6/1, and if only the bet on black is successful you have actually won nothing. Visit any casino and watch the roulette table and most players will be placing a variety of multiple bets on each spin, but you do wonder whether they fully understand what those bets actually mean in terms of the odds of winning and the subsequent pay-out. Playing roulette at an online casino, unless in the Live casino mode gives you time to consider your betting patterns, so our casino tip is to use it wisely.
