What are casino table games?
When talking about table games in casinos, luxurious and spacious halls immediately come to mind, filled with tables with players all around, and the dealer running the game. Thanks to technology, today you can enjoy this experience online and from your home.
Through live streams, or even operated by automated mechanisms, online table casino games still follow the same rules as their traditional counterparts, making them an affordable alternative for everyone.
Among the most popular games are blackjack, poker, roulette, baccarat, and dice games, each with its own rules and strategies. -
Blackjack
Live Blackjack is a popular casino-banked game, meaning that players compete against the house rather than each other, the game allows up to 7 players to be seated at the table.
The dealer will deal 2 face-up cards to each player and 2 cards to themselves, one face-up and another face-down (hidden card).
The objective is to get closer to a total of 21 than the dealer by taking additional cards if needed but without exceeding 21 (Too Many).
Any hand that goes over 21 automatically loses to the dealer, regardless of the dealer's own hand. But if you get a total of 21 from your initial two cards, it is known as "Blackjack", and nothing can stop you from winning the game round unless the dealer also has a Blackjack.

Poker
There are 11 poker variants, and BetGoals offers some of them.
Below we are going to explain one of the most practiced versions in the world: Texas Hold'em.
In a game of Texas Hold'em is used 52-card deck which is shuffled after each game round and each player is dealt two cards face down (the 'hole cards')
Over several betting rounds, five more cards are (eventually) dealt face-up in the middle of the table, these face-up cards are called 'community cards.' Each player is free to use the community cards in combination with their hole cards to build a five-card poker hand.
Your mission is to construct your five-card poker hands using the best available five cards out of the seven total cards (your two hole cards and the five community cards).
You can do that by using both your hole cards in combination with three community cards, one hole card in combination with four community cards, or no hole cards.
If the cards on the table lead to a better combination, you can also play all five community cards and forget about yours.
In a game of Texas Hold'em, you can do whatever works to make the best five-card hand.

Roulette
Live Roulette is played with two main components, the table, which contains a grid with 12 rows and 3 columns filled with numbers from 1 to 36 arranged in descending order from top to bottom. Its top slot is filled with the number 0.
The other component is the "Roulette wheel", where the dealer must spin the ball in the opposite direction of the wheel's rotation. When the ball stops in a pocket, the winning number is determined.
The objective of the game is to predict the number on which the ball will land by placing one or more bets that cover that specific number. You win if you have placed a bet that covers it. The payout amount depends on the type of bet placed. -
Baccarat
The game is hosted by a dealer and is played with 8 standard 52-card decks and only the numeric value of each card is relevant in the game.
Before each deal, you must place your bet on whether the player or the dealer will win the round by having the hand with a value closest to 9.
If you believe that both the player and the dealer will hold hands of equal value, you also have the option to bet on Tie.
