We have done the research and compiled a list of the 5 most popular casino games in Canada. We highly recommend that you read on in order to find out what some of the top games available to play are when you use the best online casinos in Canada the country has to offer!
#5- Blackjack
Blackjack is a casino game with many variations. Players try to score as close to 21 as possible without going over, and the dealer distributes cards from a shoe of multiple decks. While simple in concept, blackjack offers immense strategic depth, which is why it has become one of the most popular games for Canadians to continue to enjoy on a regular basis.
#4- Roulette
Roulette is a casino game where players bet on where a ball will land on a spinning wheel. There are multiple bets that can be made with different odds of winning. The roulette wheel is thought to have originated in France in the 18th century and has since become one of the most popular casino games in the world. Given its popularity, and perhaps the fact that it has French origins, it does not come as a surprise to learn that it is highly favored by those in Canada.
#3- Baccarat
Baccarat is another popular casino game with French origins. It is played with multiple decks of cards and has three different variations. In baccarat, members bet on which hand they think will win- either the player’s hand, the banker’s hand, or a tie between the two.
#2- Slot Machines
Slot machines are perhaps the most iconic casino game and can be found in casinos all over the world. They generally require no strategy or skill to play and are therefore very popular among casual gamblers. There are however many different types of slot machines with varying themes and jackpots.
#1- Poker
Poker is a card game that can be played with anywhere from 2 to 10 people. It generally requires more strategy and skill than other casino games which might explain its popularity among Canadian gamblers.
