And to play blackjack correctly, you must learn basic strategy or the house edge can balloon to over 10%. Craps can also be the most exciting game. It's the one you always hear people cheering and high fiving at. All you have to do it plop down the minimum bet on the pass line. If a 7 or 11 hits on the come out roll, you win. If a 2, 3, or 12 hits, you lose. If a 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10 hits, that is called the "point." Next place double your first bet behind your pass line bet. This is called "free odds." This is the best bet in the casino, and drops the overall house edge down to well below 1%, better than you'll find at ANY blackjack table. The shooter will then try and throw the point number again before throwing a 7. Blackjack is by far the most popular table game in the casino. It is fun and actually beatable (but not by a beginner). Before even stepping to a table though, you must learn basic strategy. It always perplexes me how many people do not know basic strategy. In fact, many people will get MAD at you for playing right when they think you're wrong, just because they never bothered to memorize proper strategy. If you're having a hard time remembering proper basic strategy, buy a wallet sized strategy card. It will tell you exactly what to do, and is perfectly acceptable to use. You can even set it right out on the table while playing, just learn to use it quickly so you don't slow down the game.
