Which casino games do you avoid?

YLAN · Sep 18, 2025

I avoid the one also known as "the one-armed bandit".
For me, its a rip-off, as the nickname suggests.
Feels like bankroll draining so fast that its not worth the fun.
Which one is yours?

Mostly the games that I don't know we'll or at all . Games that I have never played before or games that demand a lot of skill or knowledge to be mastered . Also I play very rarely games that they have huge variance , I usually play these long of games of there is a free trial , a special primo or some free bets . For example I don't play baccarat at all . I play very rarely wheel . On the contrary I like playing all the time poker (NLH) and slots

Actually, all of them should be avoided. It's different that sometimes someone sits in and has a little fun, or someone is addicted and can't live without it. The problem with casinos is that they offer extremely addictive games and tempt people to try their luck (like the lottery). The key to it all is finding balance.

Wouldn't u be a bit curious to play some casino games & diversify from poker spending only what u could afford to loose? LOL

In the past 5 years my country , the same like most european countries , has implemented a lot of restrictions on online gambling , and they have over 2000 blacklisted sites, which can't be accessed without VPN , and even then you can be fined between 1000$ and 2000$ for using websites which are not licensed, so those I avoid

I have over 500k wager on Stake for example, and get a lot of weekly and monthly bonuses but , I can just risk getting in trouble...

So I just stick to the ones which pay their taxes for my local government.

I avoid games I don't know. For example, if there are slots I've never played before, and I don't know anyone who plays them, I'm unlikely to play them myself. There are card games, such as baccarat or double-hand poker. And I don't play American roulette.

All of them.

The big wheel! Never seen anyone hit that for any real money.

I pretty much take Prahlad's advice and "practice avoidance".

The house has the edge, so I rather play poker.

Slots have the "nickname" one-armed bandit in Swedish, too.

Used to play them A LOT when I was young. Not much else was available for underage kids.

Now I almost never play them, so it's probably them I avoid. Boring as hell compared to other activities at most casinos.

Hey YLAN-san,
Ad I said in many posts already, I don't play casino games at all, except poker and occasionally some blackjack.
I was going to ask you about this "the one-armed bandit" game. Thought it was some table game, but "pentazepam" kind of clarified it for me, now I'm assuming it's a Slot machine, right?

Naji-san, howdy! It is the slot machine! The nickname comes from the 'arm' at the side of the machine that you pull down in order for the game to begin; the 'bandit' part refers to how it steal all of your money as you keep on trying for 'just one more time'.

I like blackjack, sometimes baccarat, ...and ok maybe a tiny little bit of roulette for kicks,

...not real interested in slots or the big wheel type of games generally

I avoid live dealer games like Texas Hold'em and Red Wheels, as it feels like the player is always at a loss.
