Casino

If you're a gaming fanatic but not a sports one, Betsafe offers you a dip into the world of casino! It doesn't require additional registration, but it has a separate menu (especially visible in the mobile version of the site and apps).
Navigation of this section is quite convenient. You can use various filters (types/providers/collections) to evaluate the variety and choose your preferences, which you can add to your personal collection and have quick access to them. Here you will find:

• Classic slots take us back to the days when mechanical levers and spinning reels were the standard. They usually have three reels with a limited set of symbols and just one payline - you need to match the symbols on the center line to win. Video slots have brought many innovations to the gaming industry: colorful design and animations, detailed plots, levels, multiple paylines and bonuses.
• Time-tested table and card games also have found a place in the online format;
• Super popular everywhere in these days crash games: you have a graph showing the airplane on takeoff and take a bet or two before the round starts. Then only look after the lucky plane and cash out before the plane disappear. Your win is multiplying the stake by the coefficient of the lucky plane at the point of cash out.

Live Casino

This is a section where you play not with a computer but with real live dealers. Navigation is also well organised: pay attention to the categories and build your collection of favourite games. In addition, you can visit the tab telling about the successes of your predecessors.

Here you will find all classic games:

• Roulette (including multiplayer). Roulette is a game involving betting on which slot the ball on a numbered wheel will hit when the wheel stops. Roulette players can bet on single numbers, groups of numbers, even or odd numbers, colored slots and so on. Each type of bet has different odds and payouts.
• Poker. Poker has many varieties. In all, players use hole cards (face down cards) and community cards (face up cards) to form the best possible hand in each betting round. A trickery is to recognize when to raise, call an existing bet, or reset.
• Blackjack. The goal of Blackjack is to beat the dealer's hand without exceeding 21 cards. Players are dealt two cards each with a variety of subsequent choices. They can beat (get another card), stand (hold the hand), double down (double the original bet and get another card) or split (split the hand in two). The key is to reach an amount as close to 21 as possible, and ideally to get a "blackjack" (face card combined with an ace).
• Baccarat. Baccarat involves comparing the hands of a "player" and a "banker", with players betting on which hand will be higher, or whether there will be a tie between them. If you are a beginner, baccarat is a great choice as it has only three outcomes to bet on, and the RTP on some bets is higher than many other games. For experienced players, though, there are several betting options, including side bets. In the past, many gamblers considered this game to be an elite one, but since its introduction to online casinos, it has gained widespread popularity.
• Dice games. In Craps, for example, players bet on the outcomes of the roll of a pair of dice. They can wager money against each other playing "street craps" or against a bank in "casino craps". In the first case using casino chips to bet on the craps layout. By contrast, in second case, there is no marked table, the wagers are made in cash, and there are no attendants - all process is self-policed by the players. The central game, pass, has been gradually supplemented over the decades by many companion games which can be played simultaneously with pass.
• Lottery as a type is a rather broad term, applicable to all games where you have to guess a randomly selected number or number of objects. Here you can find keno, bingo and many more.
