Poker is the best form of gambling. There are not many in this thread who seem to favor that above the other games that have a house edge. In poker, one has the option to fold hands with a negative expected outcome or bet on it and take a "gamble." If one were to fold every hand with a negative expected outcome and bet on every hand with a positive expected outcome, they would win in the long run....just like the casinos do!

You have to consider though, that in poker you still have to factor in bluffing tactics... this is a little harder playing online than in real life to actually watch the person you are trying to bluff or calling their bluff, but can still be done online no matter what by placing a huge raise to the pot when you don't have anything that would win. It's not just about folding when you think you are going to lose.

True. But there are some resources available out there that helps with decision making in online poker. One can use a Heads Up Display (HUD) that provides a wealth of statistics, in real time, of your opponents. The software keeps a comprehensive database of statics on all the opponents you play so it's easier to read their play....one can determine the likelihood that their opponent is bluffing by looking at their stats. It's awesome....can't lose...win win win!

Is it like an app for google glass or similar? If it's really working and can help a lot to win, it will be forbidden in real casinos. If you play online, next to your PC, you don't need a HUD just a tablet or phone, it can help you keeping the statistics of cards as well. But if this thing can read the screen and gather and process the data without human interaction needed than it's more interesting

Poker is made for experienced ones, noobs will be 100% crushed is this type of game.

Poker is for experience players you will first need knowledge to play poker but I think you will still needs a little luck on this a sub total of knowledge 40% experience 50% and luck just 10% a total of 100% if you want to play poker!

I'd say blackjack or roulette

I've won a bunch with both games before in the past. It's exciting and fun, you just have to remember to set a budget for yourself before you start playing.

It's a dangerous game.

If you say blackjack it is logic because it is easy to play and the payout is good too. But roulette it depends on your luck and your pick and they payout is not really good depends on your pick too, the less your pick the higher multiplier but your chance is low to win it. It is pretty risky to play in roulette

and playing in roulette is not cheap. u cant possible just bet one number, so u have to actually bets on a few numbers and even the whole row or column or diff game play.

Roulette is a classic game, always bet on red Grin

Hahaha yeah with roullete is fun tho, you need to be lucky with it like dice.

But blackjack for me a no go I am so bad with it :/

I would go with poker because it is a game of skill unlike the other ones listed at the top in the poll.
You need to know how you appear to the other players and you are not just playing against the dealer so you have other opponents to contend with. You have more control of the outcome of the game than others.
Roulette for instance doesn't give you any. You have some one in control of the ball and how it is thrown and where ever it lands is in destiny's hands.

I wouldn't be so sure about that statement that Poker is a skill 'based' game. Poker certainly profit from skill of the player an it is major factor, but it is still game of luck.
Long story short: In poker you can’t avoid losing no matter how skillful you are. A big distinction between poker and pure gambling games is when gambling you are playing against 'the house'.
The rules of real pvp poker consent every player a statistically equal chance to win, unlike standard casino gambling - that is the main advantage of Poker imo.

Of course your favorite game is a matter of preferences and taste. Personally, I like 'no brainer' games while I gamble, something to test my luck alone, no skill involved.
That is why I vote for Dice.

In the past I have won quite a lot in it. Although it certainly cannot get rich instantly wining the jackpot such as slots. But there and lost everything quickly and easily.

In gambling every thing is very quick response either winning money or losing money. After winning some money initially in gambling most of us thinks we know the winning strategy or I'm lucky so we continue until we lose all our winnings and our money as well. This is the beauty of the gambling.

When I bet I prefer DICE. The multiplier makes it interesting and lucrative to win.

Even after a few games lost you can still make a good fortune when you are on a roll.

Dice all the way!

i chosen roulette because it's all about statistiques and luck
but also i like to gamble on other things like sports especially football
and also like playing poker and blackjack

How statistiqes helps you play roulette? If you play like you always put your bet on red and if you lose you double your bet and put it on red again, according to statistiqes after 10 or even 15 rolls there should be a red if it was all blacks before. But if - let's say - after the 20th round there is still black only, it is the problem of the statistiqes (and your of course). Because statistiqes say there should be, but not there have to be red so it is also based on luck mostly, I think

i prefer dice because i can play with high multiplier rate (9000x), other games don't give this option

Dice is great and a chance of 9900x isn't that great but if you hit it is awesome.

Slots are also nice to play. Mostly they also got a nice high payout.
