  Roulette

  Roulette in online Australian casinos is the European version with one zero. It is the traditional gambling game named after the French word meaning "small wheel". In the game, a croupier spins a wheel in one direction, then spins a ball in the opposite direction around a tilted circular surface running around the circumference of the wheel. The ball eventually falls on to the wheel and into one of 37 colored and numbered pockets on the wheel.
  
  

  Baccarat

  Only 3 bets are possible in baccarat: Bank, Player, or Tie. Two cards are dealt to the Bank hand and two cards are dealt to the Player hand. Sometimes a third card is dealt to either or both hands. Whichever hand is closest to nine is the winner. The game is usually dealt from a six- or eight-deck shoe. All tens, jacks, queens and kings equal zero. The ace equals one. All the other cards equal their face value. Thus a nine equals nine, a two equals two and so forth.
  
  

  Texas Hold'em Poker

  Texas Hold 'em can be learned in a few minutes by anyone and you can be playing fairly well after a few hours practice. In order to learn the game, however, you must play and you must play fairly often. Once you understand the basic structure of the game, you can play Texas Hold 'em and even some of the many variations. Texas Hold 'em is an easy game to learn, just difficult to master. The "mastering" part is the costly part, especially in the traditional setting of a casino poker room. Thankfully, you can practice all you want for free in online poker rooms.
  
  

  Craps

  In craps, players wager money against the casino on the outcome of one roll, or of a series of rolls, of two dice. Craps can also be played in less formal settings and is said to be popular among soldiers. In such situations side bets are more frequent, with one or several participants covering or "fading" bets against the dice.
