Are Online Casinos Fair?
The online casino experience is designed to mimic the real-life casino setting while providing you with a safe and transparent way to play your favourite games online. At CasinoEuro we ensure that all of our online casino games and slots are fair using Random Number Generators and expertly trained live dealers. We’re here to answer your frequently asked questions about casino games, and turn you into a Casino Expert.
What Is A Random Number Generator?
All of our online slots, virtual table games and video poker use what’s known as a Random Number Generator, a complex computer algorithm that runs every time you hit the spin/bet button. The RNG runs through infinite new symbol combinations per second, so by the time your spin has started, the outcome has already been decided. In a nutshell:
1. The RNG assigns a value to each symbol on the reel, for example a 5-reel slot with 12 symbols per reel.
2. The RNG creates a value of 1-12 for each reel, resulting in five different symbols.
3. If the five symbols generated create a winning combination, you’ll be paid according to the game’s paytable.
As well as the RNG, online slots have a set RTP (Return to Player), a percentage of money that theoretically be returned to the player after a number of spins. For example, over 100 spins, if you play €100 on a 90% RTP slot, you can expect to get back €90 on average. The typical RTP for online slots ranges from 93% up to 98%, so of course some slots are safer to play than others in terms of minimising your losses. Higher RTP slots such as the classic Blood Suckers and Jack Hammer offer more frequent wins, though they may be smaller. If you’re looking for massive wins, then a spin on a progressive jackpot can still offer 95-96% RTP.
Which Are The Best RTP Jackpot Games?
Mega Fortune Dreams boasts a healthy 96.4% RTP, with its top jackpot paying out well over €3 million. Glitz and glamour anyone?
What Is The House Edge?
The House Edge is the mathematical advantage of the casino over the player. In games like Blackjack, the dealer wins all bets from players that have lost their hand, even if their own is also a bust. But a player will only win if they beat the dealer. In Roulette, this works slightly differently, as the odds of a single winning number of 36:1, yet the winning bet is calculated at 35x your bet. A very special game, Lightning Roulette, offers players a thrilling boost to their wins, with payouts of 50x to 500x your bet on special lightning boosted numbers.

Which Casino Games Have The Best Odds?
Blackjack is one of the biggest and best games you’ll find in any casino, and the reasons are obvious. This exciting card game has everything you’d want in a casino classic: the thrill of the deal, the rush of the lucky hand, and it also offer a surprisingly low house edge of around 1%. There are plenty of Blackjack tutorials, guides and strategies available to help you play, whether you’re a casino newbie or you’ve been at the tables forever.
Baccarat is probably one of the simplest games to play, and offers odds of between 1.06% and 1.24% depending on whether you bet on Banker or Player. With Roulette, the best decision you can make to determine your likely outcome is choosing which side of the pond you want to play on. European Roulette offers far better odds than the American variety with the additional 00.
