Table Games

Back to Guide

Online casino table games offer card, wheel and dice-based entertainment on demand. They attract the most attention on a land-based casino floor or online casino, alongside pokies. That’s because they offer an exciting blend of heritage and simplistic gameplay. Some table games like roulette and blackjack have been enjoyed by generations dating back to the 1800s. Any Kiwis new to casino table games should find these easy to get started with, before graduating to more complex variants.

If you’re just getting started with table games at an online casino, we’ll give you an insight into what to expect from the most popular titles.

Blackjack

Blackjack is one of the most played table games in land-based and online casinos – and for good reason. With easy gameplay, a healthy dose of strategy and competition, there’s no other game like online blackjack at an online casino.

The aim of the game is to create a hand that’s worth more than the dealer’s – without your hand being worth more than 21 points. If you make a hand worth 22 or more, it is a ‘bust’ and the dealer wins the game. If you make a hand worth the same value as the dealer’s this is a ‘push’ and the game is void, with your bet stake returned to you.

The dealer will deal two cards face up to you. It is your decision to either ‘stand’ and stick with the two-card hand you have or ‘hit’ and accept a third card from the dealer. You can continue to hit for more cards until you are happy with your hand value. The ideal scenario is to land a blackjack with your first two cards – an Ace and a face card (Queen, King or Jack). A blackjack pays out more than even money, usually in a ratio of 6:5 or 3:2 depending on the table you choose.

Roulette

The wheel-based table game of roulette is enjoyed by casino-goers worldwide. It’s one of the longest-standing table games too, with its roots dating back as far as the 18th century when the wheel concept was developed by French mathematician Blaise Pascal. Today, our online roulette tables offer a great choice of American and European Roulette action.

These roulette versions have subtle differences that can have a big difference to your winning potential. American Roulette wheels have one green zero pocket and one green double zero pocket. The extra double zero pocket increases the house edge from 2.7% in European Roulette to 5.26%. In European Roulette, there is only one green zero pocket, which explains the reduced house edge.

There are various ways you can bet on a roulette table. You can place ‘inside’ and ‘outside’ bets. Outside bets are placed on the outer sections of the roulette table. You can bet on Red or Black, Even or Odd, 1 to 18 or 19 to 36, as well as betting on the next winning Dozen or Column. The latter two bets pay out at 2:1, while the former bet types pay out at even money (1:1)

The inside bets allow Kiwis to get more creative, with the chance to place bets on individual numbers at odds of 35:1. You can also bet on two adjacent numbers in a Split bet (17:1), three numbers in a row in a Street bet (11:1), six numbers in two adjacent rows in a Six Line bet (5:1) and a cluster of four numbers in a square known as a Corner bet (8:1).

Baccarat

Baccarat is another card game with a simple objective for table game beginners – bet on the ‘Bank’, the ‘Player’ or the ‘Tie’. The dealer is the Bank. If the dealer’s hand is worth more than your hand, the Bank wins. If your hand is worth more than the dealer’s hand, the Player wins. If both hands are valued equal, it is a Tie.

To calculate a baccarat hand, all face cards and tens are worth zero, aces are worth one and all other cards are worth their face value. If your hand is worth more than nine, remove the first digit of your hand’s value. For example, a hand worth 12 would then be worth two.

Poker

Poker games like Texas Hold’em are some of the most popular table games on any casino floor. Some land-based and online casinos will have a poker room on offer. At Wildz Casino, you can play Texas Hold’em heads-up against the dealer in-game.

To get started with a game, you must place an ‘Ante’ bet and hit the Deal button. You’ll receive two cards. You can either Fold the hand or Call by doubling your initial Ante bet. The dealer will then flop the first three community cards. You can continue to Bet the ante to see a fourth card or Check to see the fourth card for free. After the fourth card, you can either Bet or Check again depending on the strength of your hand.

Once the fifth and final card is dealt, your hand is compared with the dealer’s. If it is a higher ranking than the dealer’s best poker hand, you win an even-money payout. Tied hands are pushed, with all your bets voided and returned to your balance.

Aside from Ultimate Texas Hold’em, you’ll find multiple poker variants right here at Wildz.

Craps

Craps is one of the most popular dice-based table games in the casino scene. On the face of it, a craps table looks very complicated, but once you’ve got to grips with the difference between a come-out roll and a pass line bet you’ll be just fine.

At the start of a craps game, there is a come-out roll. The player that takes the come-out roll is known as the ‘shooter’. If the shooter rolls a seven or an 11, this is a ‘Natural’ and all bettors win, with the shooter rolling again. Roll a two, three or 12 and all players lose. Roll a four, five, six, eight, nine or 10 and this sets the ‘Point’. Players can then make a ‘Pass Line’ bet, which pays out if the shooter rolls a ‘Natural’ or the Point number before rolling a seven which restarts the game.

Instead of being automated by random number generators (RNGs), live casino games are managed in real time by professionally trained dealers. The games are broadcast to you live in HD-quality streams.
