Computer-generated online slot machines and classic favourites like blackjack, roulette, poker, craps, sic bo, and baccarat, and cutting-edge live dealer games found on today’s best online casino websites are now more popular than ever.

Although some games are fairly similar to others, each online casino game is completely different from the next in terms of its rules, betting options, and payout structures.

The question being asked here is, can you apply a certain strategy from one type of casino game to another? Let’s dive in to find out.

Can I take any strategies from one online casino game and apply them to another?

The short answer is yes. There are several strategies that can be taken from some online casino games and applied to others, which are often overlooked.

The following strategies may not necessarily be what you were thinking, but they are reliable and effective, nonetheless.

Some of the best transferable strategies that can be applied to almost any online casino games are less about the actual gameplay and more about responsible gambling, betting, player safety, and bankroll management strategies.

They include the following:

  • Choose a safe site to play games – it’s important that you stick to playing on fully regulated iGaming sites known to be controlled by globally renowned operators, such as 10bet.com. Never play games at unregulated online casinos
  • Check your stake – before placing a wager (e.g., before hitting the spin button in a slot or hitting the draw/deal button in a card game), use the responsive player controls to adjust the total current stake to a more suitable value you are comfortable with
  • RTP% payout rate – some savvy online casino players will always say to look for online slots and other casino games with high or above-average RTP% (Return to Player) percentage payout rates. It’s an excellent strategy, but in no way means you are guaranteed to win more
  • Odds/payout rates – get to know the odds and payout rates before playing a game because it can help you place more strategic/informed bets. Also, understanding what the odds are in terms of implied probability rate can also improve your chances of losing fewer hands and hopefully winning more
  • Responsible gambling – gambling responsibly at all times means never playing your favourite online casino games while intoxicated, tired, or under the influence. Playing like this can lead you to take more risks that you wouldn’t normally take, and you could end up losing your entire bankroll
  • Withdraw your winnings – don’t forget to cash out a portion of your winnings from time to time. If you leave your entire bankroll in your iGaming account, you might be tempted to spend it. Perhaps withdraw around 75% of your winnings and leave the rest in there for your next session

What other strategies can be applied from one game to another?

Many other simple strategies can also be applied from one game to the next. For example, before playing any game, take a minute or so (or however long it takes) to learn the game’s basic rules.

You don’t want to risk losing your hard-earned money in a new game you have just started playing because you don’t fully understand the rules. Also, don’t forget that some online casino games are available to play in the free-play demo mode.

Where possible, take advantage of this risk-free mode to get used to playing. The free-play mode is also great for practising certain strategies that might be too costly to try in the real money mode.

Another strategy is to choose a device you prefer playing on the most and stick to playing on that device, whether it’s a desktop computer, laptop, smartphone or tablet device. Doing so will ensure you get the most fun out of your casino gaming experience.

What are safer gambling tools?

Some online casinos provide safer gambling tools that, when used correctly, can help players stay in much better control of their bankroll. For example, some players like to set session time reminders because they can easily get carried away playing and forget what time it is.

Others like to set daily, weekly or monthly deposit limits to ensure they don’t overspend. It’s also possible to set spending limits and win/loss limits.

You can set these limits when logged into your account, usually by going to the responsible/safer gambling tools section.

Final thoughts

If you are looking to play online slot machines, table & card games, video poker, online scratchies, slingo, crash games, speciality games, bingo & lottery-style games or live dealer games, try to remember one or more of these useful strategies when you next log in to your chosen casino to play your favourite games.

Another useful strategy that can help you keep hold of your bankroll for longer periods is to try to avoid chasing any losses you might incur immediately after losing.

Sometimes, people who chase their losses try to recoup what they have lost by placing huge wagers, hoping to win big.

However, doing so can often result in losing more, so stick to gambling responsibly, and if you feel as though you have hit a losing streak, simply log out and come back to your account another day when you’re in a more positive frame of mind.
