I was in Vegas a few years ago walking through one of the casinos with a couple friends, when we walk by a "war" table. We're shocked that one even exists. It's like one of the ghetto casino games in Vegas Vacation, so he says he has to play.
He throws down $100. Boom! He's dealt a 3. He loses. We all laugh at him.
Pissed off, he throws down another $100, and gets a 2. He loses. We laugh harder, other people at the table laugh.
He throws down $200 to gain the money back. He gets a 3. He loses. The table explodes. The dealer laughs at him.
The only game you can play where you dont play the house is Poker. The casino's do take part of the pot, but when you win a hand for $100 the $5 they took out is not going to hurt you.
Best card odds are at the baccarat table. Casino's don't budget income from card games except for blackjack. Blackjack is the most popular game and there is enough trending history to project income. The casino's number one money maker is the quarter slots. Over 70% of a casiino's take comes from the quarter slots.
