Casinos<\/a> can be confusing and overwhelming places for a newcomer. It's not just the bright lights, loud sounds, and big crowds either, there is also the matter of how you should behave, a.k.a casino etiquette<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nobody wants to embarrass themselves on their first visit to the casino! Let's take a look at the dos and don'ts that will help you feel confident when going gambling. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

12 Top Dos & Don'ts At Casinos <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Casinos are usually pretty accommodating when it comes to novice gamblers, but it's still worth familiarizing yourself with the basics of proper casino etiquette. You'll feel more self-assured and avoid any potentially embarrassing situations - making your experience better overall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dress for the occasion <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It's worth checking the casino's dress code before you show up. The rules can vary greatly from casino to casino, but generally you'll need to make at least a little bit of effort with your attire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That's not to say you need to wear a tuxedo (although it's always better to be overdressed than underdressed, so long as you are comfortable), but that even casinos with no official dress code will still expect you to wear clean, unripped clothing - and will frown on certain shirts and footwear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And even if your t-shirt and flip-flops are okay on the casino floor, they still might not be smart enough to get into a casino restaurant or bar. And it's common for casinos to enforce more formal dress codes in the evenings compared to the daytime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some casinos are stricter than others and it makes sense just to check on their website or by giving them a quick phone call<\/strong> - rather than just showing up and hoping for the best. Outside of Vegas, most casinos have a \"smart casual\" code, where you need to wear the kind of clothes that would get you past a fussy bouncer into a bar or club.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Look good, feel good - and you'll find people treat you better too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Learn the rules <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Although casino staff will be happy to offer guidance for newbies - and you aren't expected to understand every little nuance of every game - you will make things much easier for everyone if you understand the basics before you show up.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you're going to play a game you've never played before - like Baccarat or Craps - learn the rules. This isn't just etiquette, it's common sense. Gambling on games you don't understand is not wise!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The easiest way to familiarize yourself with casino games is to play online - you can even do this with play money, as you just need to get comfortable with the rules of any table games you're planning on playing in the casino. Alternatively, you can always watch Youtube videos that explain different games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many casinos also offer free beginner lessons<\/strong> at certain times of the day (normally the mornings) where they show novices the ropes for their table games - and often they will have sessions for Poker etiquette too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Use our website, betandbeat<\/a>, to learn how to play many games from slots<\/a> and blackjack<\/a> to sports<\/a> and esports betting<\/a>, and obviously, poker<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Learn the hand signals<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Blackjack is one of the most popular casino games and so it's worth brushing up on your blackjack table etiquette before you go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The two main actions in Blackjack<\/a> are \"Hit\" (for another card) and \"Stand\" (to stick with your current total). You might also need to \"Double Down\" (where you double your stake for one extra card only) or \"Split\" (where you turn a matching pair into two separate hands). You can say these to the dealer, but it's better for everyone if you learn the basic hand signals.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Done properly, these eliminate any confusion and allow the casino's cameras to clearly see what you asked for in the case of a dispute (as they don't pick up sound).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
