Sorry, forgot to mention it before: I'll take all the blame.

Hmmmm, I can let it go in that way - I'm going to say that is 80% mea culpa...

Usually, I'm always more comfortable with 50/50 in everything. It takes two to tangle 😜.

I don't know how to play any of these games and I'm not planning on learning any of them but I would probably go with baccarat if I would have to decide.

Better for you because in Baccarat, you don't "decide" anything besides betting.

Those two games have a lot of similarities. But:

-- Which one is more fun to play?
-- Which one would you prefer to play if you had a nice bankroll?
-- Which one can make you more money if you happen to have a nice streak?

I don’t know how to play baccarat, so I’d choose blackjack, which I’m more familiar with! But since I love games in general, I’ll learn baccarat someday and let you know the answer then! Good luck, and thanks for your kind comments, Sami!

Even though you're not familiar with Baccarat, you made the right choice in my opinion. Both games have some similarities, but in Baccarat, you don't get to make any decisions, you just choose your bet and cards are dealt.

Thanks for the tip, Sami! I'll check it out when I have some free time. Even though they're simple, some games really do take more time and dedication to learn!

True, but not Baccarat, believe me. And you'll see if you give it a try (For free) on casino.us for example. All you have to do is place a bet, that's it. You have 3 choices, you choose one. But I did not like it. You have no decision to make after the bet as opposed to blackjack where you can actually influence the outcome.
Good luck to you Diva, whatever you do.

Blackjack gives us more chances than baccarat, so I would prefer blackjack.

And you 're right in my opinion. I'd rather play something where I have some room to navigate.

I don't prefer both of them . I would choose another casino game to play at . But among them I would choose , of I had to , blackjack . I have tried it , not so hard to learn , at least the| most basics . Of course it needs strategy and knowledge , I don't have it that's why I rarely play blackjack , very rarely for fun

That would be the better choice IMO. As to learning the basics of blackjack, I haven't seen better than this free and simple course available here on CC:

Any reasons for that choice, Mr. user? 🤪.

I don't know how to play Baccarat, but I practiced a lot of Blackjack at 888casino and Party Poker Casino. Currently, online gambling is legalized here in Brazil, but some games I've always played aren't legalized.

Which means you would choose Blackjack, right?
As to Baccarat, it's the easiest game on earth, as easy as slots

. You just place a bet and watch the cards falling.

For fun Baccarat, for real money Blackjack

I think that's the right way to go. Baccarat is, in a way, just like slots, if you play it, it's mostly for fun.

I think its really hard to have a edge in BJ these days, you could probably get a higher edge in Baccarat, but I still rather play poker than either one.

None of them... Poker is Better

Poker is not a choice here, Unit.
And it's a known fact that your edge is much better in Blackjack. But if you're a lucky player, you can try Baccarat.

I agree, but poker is not an option here.
Imagine yourself in the situation described in the 1st post, then make a choice if you want.

I like Blackjack, but I count cards and calculate...

It's the stupidest rule in casinos. You can calculate and count, but if you never win, they don't ban you. Only when you have a good run, add up your winnings by calculating and counting, and they kick you out of the casino.

I'm not sure which jurisdiction you play in, however in the majority of Canadian casinos, counting cards has become unusable, since they use a continuous shoe..that is 6 decks in a shoe and the played cards are returned to the show every couple hands therefore infinite cards. counting is useless.

I have found that Baccarat is about the same as flipping a coin and guessing the outcome, while Blackjack has numerous strategies and of course varying outcomes. I personally use what is called Basic Strategy and I use a flexible betting system, attempting to bet low when losing and high when winning, and as impossible as that sounds it does work over 75% of the time. But all in all I play low stakes and if I ever lose 5 hands in a row I am gone.
