This winter, before visiting a casino, I want you to have a proper look at this article as in this article, we will be discussing which game is best for you if you’re going to win some cash over your “staycation” in the Atlantic City or Las Vegas. So, let’s get into it without any further ado.

Blackjack Explained

Blackjack, one of the oldest and the most famous card-based games, among the high rollers. The motive of this game is very simple; you just have to get 21 or as close to 21. There is a catch though, in Blackjack instead of competing against the players compete against the dealer who represents the casino. Hence, a player can win if you get near to 21 without getting busted by the dealer. This game, unlike Craps, is played in a tranquil and calm environment because it takes a lot of concentration and strategy making to help you win the game, and hence, it is known as the Bankers game.

Craps Explained

Craps is one of the most entertaining and exciting games in the casinos. Whenever you get into the casino, the table where there is a huge crowd and noises are being made, this will be the Craps table. 

What makes Craps such an exciting game? Well, for starters, it offers the players with the widest range of betting among the other recreational games offered by the casinos. The next thing is that it is very easy to play, although it might seem complicated for the first time as the table have quite complex boxes. But believe me, it is the game which offers you a satisfying amount of risk factor and also mystique factor as it will be totally unknown to the players what number is going to pop up when they roll the dice. This game is totally based on the luck of the dice rollers, as there is actually no strategy so that you can win the bet.

Blackjack Vs. Craps: House Edge

House edge of the casino represents the advantages that a casino has over the bettors. These house edges to ensure that the casino does not lose a hefty amount of money. The casinos always implement house edge on each and every game in the form of rules, tricks, and so on.

In Blackjack, the house edge, in general, is 60%; therefore, there is only a 40% chance of winning the bet. For instance, for every $100 wagered, you can either win $40 or end up losing $60 per bet. Hence, it is a risky game. Although the house edge in this game is quite high yet, it will get you the maximum win because you will have a considerable amount of control over the game. Blackjack also accounts for the most casino wins, according to a survey. This game also offers a high win rate amount among all the other games. 

On the other hand, in the game of Craps, the average house edge is 16.67% nearly; therefore, for every bet placed of $100, you will either win $16.67 or lose $16.67. Thus, this game offers a very minimal amount of loss, but in reality, this has a hefty amount of loses because this game offers a wide range of bet, that is, it has 32 combinations of bets, and hence people tend to lose more money.

Final Thoughts

Blackjack, although it is a luck-based casino game, bettors have some control over the game because the bettors can strategize their game. The game of Blackjack is quite sophisticated too. On the contrary, In Craps, the bettor though they might feel like they have some control over the game, has, in reality, no control over it because in this, the bettor can only roll the dice and hope they will win. Therefore, it totally depends on the preference of the bettors that which game they would like to play.
