What are the most popular online casino games?

This is a question that we see asked quite often.

The truth is that the casino games that are most popular in casinos in Las Vegas and other locations are also the most popular online casino games.

The top game? Slots.

Slot machines, are, by far, the most popular online casino games. There are literally thousands of different online slots that are available to play online.

People are attracted by how easy it is to play slots. Unlike games like roulette and blackjack, there are no strategies that you need to know or rules to be aware of.

Instead, you just pull the slot (virtually, of course) and watch the action play out.

In addition, people love the possibility of a very high payout relative to the low cost of the arm pull, especially on a machine with some sort of a progressive jackpot.

The next most popular game? Blackjack.

Blackjack is almost like chess - a relatively simple game that can become as complex as you'd like.

People can take a lifetime to master the rules of blackjack. When to hit, when to stand, when to use insurance. Blackjack is one of the few games where a seasoned player can develop an edge, as small as that might be.

The next most popular game? Roulette.

Roulette is a popular game at brick-and-mortar casinos due to the social aspect of the game (who doesn't love standing around the roulette table, hoping for the little white ball to fall into the number or colour that they bet on?).

This popularity spilled over into online casino games as well, with roulette being especially popular with "live casino" players.

Other casino games, such as video poker, baccarat and others, are popular, though they don't touch the popularity of the three games listed above.
