While casinos always have an edge, your betting strategy should begin with knowing which games have the lowest house edge. In general, you’ll find the lowest house edges with poker, blackjack, craps, and baccarat, but not all bets in these games have low house edges, so you have to know which bets give the house the lowest edge. While players can win and win big, over the long run, the house always makes a profit. If you want to find a great resource on game tips and try to play in an online casino, you may find a useful website is casinohex.se. Here are a few tips on betting to help you minimize losses and maximize your chances of gain.

Poker, of course, not only depends on luck, but on the skill of the players. One of the biggest betting mistakes made by beginning poker players is thinking that just because they have put money into the pot they have to stay in the game till the bitter end. But the act of putting money into the pot doesn’t help you win. If you feel sure you have been beaten, then go ahead and fold, because you don’t gain anything by playing a hand all the way to the end.

Also, you should be aware that online poker is often more aggressive than live poker. With online poker, you can win more by attacking the blinds and turning small advantages in your favor, but with live poker, those small edges may not be worth going after due to the different style of play.

Blackjack house edges differ depending on how many decks of cards are used, and whether blackjack pays out at 3:2 or at 6:5. The more decks of cards that are used, the greater the house edge. If you are a decent blackjack player who knows basic blackjack strategy, then the house edge is only about 0.5%. Some blackjack bets have huge house edges, like the “insurance” bet you may be offered when the dealer’s face-up card is an Ace. The insurance bet is basically betting that the dealer has blackjack, and there are only four possible cards in a deck that will give the dealer blackjack. So the insurance bet is a sucker bet, and you should avoid it.

Additionally, if you love playing blackjack, one of the best betting tips to learn basic blackjack strategy, which is not the same as learning to count cards. Once you learn basic blackjack strategy, you’ll get the house edge closer to its theoretical 0.5%.

With craps, the pass and don’t pass bets are your safest, because the house edge on pass bets is just 1.41%. On don’t pass bets, it’s only 1.4%. Most people choose to make pass bets at live craps tables as a sort of “positive vibe” for the shooter. The come-out bet is your best chance for winning a pass bet because there are six ways the shooter can roll 7 and two ways he or she can roll 11.

At the baccarat table, it’s all based on luck, except for the “tie” bet, which is based on gullibility. While baccarat carries an overall low house edge, the house edge on the tie bet is over 14%, so one of the best tips on betting in baccarat is avoiding tie bets. For baccarat in general, the house edge is 1.24% for player bets, and for banker bets it’s 1.06%, so baccarat overall has some of the lowest house edges in the casino.

HIPTHER proudly concludes the inaugural edition of its expanded HIPTHER Baltics 2026 conference series, successfully bringing together a total of 430 participants across three dedicated events in Vilnius, Riga, and Tallinn.

Building on the legacy of the MARE BALTICUM Gaming & TECH Summit and introducing a new, country-focused format, HIPTHER Baltics 2026 delivered three high-impact conferences designed around the most pressing regulatory, technological, and business developments shaping the Baltic and Nordic regions. The series focused on creating meaningful dialogue between regulators, operators, fintech leaders, technology innovators, legal experts, investors, and compliance professionals.

The 2026 edition featured:

HIPTHER Baltics: Vilnius – iGaming Regulation & Fintech Integration
HIPTHER Baltics: Riga – Cross-Border Compliance & Player Protection
HIPTHER Baltics & Nordics: Tallinn – Digital Governance & Startup Innovation

Vilnius: Exploring Lithuania’s Regulatory Transformation

The series launched on 21 April in Vilnius, where discussions focused on Lithuania’s evolving regulatory landscape and the increasing convergence of fintech, payments, blockchain, and iGaming.

Industry leaders examined topics including MiCA implementation, AML requirements, digital assets, banking transformation, tokenisation, AI adoption in financial services, next-generation payments, and the growing role of compliance in sustainable business growth. The event marked the beginning of a new chapter for Baltic-focused industry conversations and set the tone for the months ahead.

Riga: Regulation, Risk and Growth in a Changing Market

On 11 May, HIPTHER Baltics arrived in Riga, bringing together experts from gaming, fintech, legal, compliance, and technology sectors for a day dedicated to practical business realities.

Key conversations addressed responsible gaming, player protection, AML implementation, fraud prevention, AI in supervision and taxation, payments innovation, cross-border licensing, data protection, affiliate marketing, and the transition from traditional SEO to AI-powered discoverability. The Riga edition highlighted how businesses can remain compliant while continuing to innovate and grow in increasingly regulated environments.

Tallinn: Digital Governance Meets Innovation

The series concluded on 2 June in Tallinn, one of Europe’s most digitally advanced capitals.

The event explored the intersection of digital governance, startup ecosystems, digital identity, compliance, investment, fintech innovation, and iGaming. Discussions ranged from eIDAS 2.0 and trusted digital onboarding to sustainable player acquisition, operational partnerships, AI-powered business growth, and the future of digital societies.

Tallinn also hosted the HIPTHER Baltic & Nordics Gaming Awards 2026, celebrating excellence across operators, suppliers, technology providers, and industry leaders from the Baltic and Nordic regions.

Beyond Conferences: Building a Regional Community

Throughout all three events, participants benefited from curated networking opportunities and practical learning sessions through the HIPTHER Academy, HIPTHER’s educational platform focused on delivering hands-on skills, professional development, and industry certifications.

The combination of boutique-format events, high-level content, and meaningful networking once again demonstrated why the Baltics continue to attract increasing attention as a hub for innovation, regulation, and cross-border collaboration.

Looking Ahead – HIPTHER Baltics 2027

Reflecting on the success of the series, Zoltan Tündik, Co-Founder and Head of Business at HIPTHER, commented: “We are incredibly proud of what we achieved across the Baltics in 2026, but this is only the beginning. The success of the three-city series has provided us with valuable insights, feedback, and inspiration that we are already incorporating into the planning of HIPTHER Baltics 2027. The Baltics have a unique energy when it comes to business events, innovation, and networking, and we are excited to continue growing alongside this vibrant community. Our commitment remains the same: delivering meaningful conversations, practical learning opportunities, and exceptional networking experiences that bring together the region’s most influential stakeholders.”

After the successful completion of HIPTHER Baltics 2026 and the overwhelmingly positive feedback received from participants, the #hipthers team is already working on an exciting and enhanced next edition.
