Table games are usually conducted by casino employees known as croupiers or dealers. Tables games, such as blackjack or craps, involve one or more players who are competing against the house (the casino itself) rather than each other. Gaming machines, such as slot machines and pachinko, are usually played by one player at a time and do not require the involvement of casino employees.

Casino games can also be played outside of casinos for entertainment purposes, like in parties or in school competitions, on machines that simulate gambling.Ĭategories Overhead view of a casino floor with table games (bottom) and slot machines
