Red Dog is a card game offered at many online casinos. It is pretty unusual, but a fascinating game that has its fans.
We discuss the rules of the game in another article on Casinoz. In this article, we will give our readers some tips on how to play Red Dog better.
House Edge in Red Dog
Many exotic games offered to visitors of online casinos feature a high house edge, so beginners doubt whether they should play them. The house edge of Red Dog is:- slightly over 3% in the game with 1 deck,
- and 2.75% in the game with eight decks.
Instead, you'd choose a game with the maximum number of decks.
From this perspective, the game is comparable to European roulette and is even more profitable than most online slots.
Hence we can conclude that the house edge should not be a problem if you play roulette or slots.
On the other hand, this game is straightforward and stands out of dynamic gameplay, so you should consider whether it meets your requirements for casino games and psychological type. Many casino visitors do not like to make quick decisions in the game, preferring to think of all possible options quietly.
To Raise or Not to Raise?
That is the question. In Red Dog, the player has to make only two decisions, both related to his bets.
- First, he has to set the size of the initial bet.
- Second, he must decide whether to raise it or not during the game.
Of course, we can not advise you on the amount, but we know precisely when you should raise it.
According to mathematical calculations, the difference between the cards from 1 to 6 means better chances for the casino.
Therefore, you should raise the bet only if the difference between the cards is from 7 to 11.
Some casinos will only allow doubling the bet, but if you can raise it several times, use this opportunity.
Summary
In the end, playing Red Dog is simple.
- Always Play Red Dog with the top decks.
- Raise the bet to the max if the difference between cards is from 7 to 11.
That's all the advice. Good luck!
