Table Games

Table games are where the real action happens at a casino. Slots are fun and a fantastic way to spend a few hours, but table games are for the true gamblers to test their skills and luck against the house.

As the name implies, table games are games that are played at a table versus games that are played in front of a machine. There are an astounding number of table games around the world and an astonishing variety of versions of these games. South African players tend to favour a select few table games, and our land-based casinos reflect this.

The true pleasure of online casinos is their ability to offer more than the standard versions of table games. Where you might find three or four different forms of, for example blackjack, in land-based casinos (and these options based more on the side bets than on different versions of classic blackjack) online casinos can bring exotic and exciting versions from different casinos and cultures.

What are table games?

As mentioned above, table games are casino games that are played at tables and usually feature a dealer and more than one player at a time.

What is different about online casino table games?

In online casino table games, there is no dealer. You play against a software programme that uses a Random Number Generator.

The premiere online casinos do, however, offer live dealer table games. You can find out more about live dealer online games here.

Why are table games so popular?

Table games combine skill, strategy and chance to give the seasoned player a truly thrilling game. Your odds of winning are much higher when you play table games – although that does factor in skill and experience and also the table game that you choose to play. Your odds are better at blackjack than they are at the roulette wheel, for example.

What table games do online casinos offer?

There are hundreds of different table games available. The most popular ones include:

Online blackjack

Online roulette
