Would steer clear from blackjack unless you know literally every possible mathematical correct move. Best bet for the recreational casino player is to play baccarat and bet the banker every time.

It isn't difficult to learn the right way to play blackjack, and the casinos in Vegas will let you have a basic strategy card at the table, if you can't memorize it.

Craps, betting pass line and backing up your wager with odds is also a sane bet.
'21' is the best, but pass line betting and backing it with odds is also a good play.

Odds behind the pass line, (and come bet) or laying the odds on the don't pass, (or don't come) is the only wager in gambling that offer true odds. Providing the casino pays 2/1 on 4 and 10, 3/2 on 5 and 9, 6/5 on 6 and 8 behind the line. Not all do anymore just like not all casinos pay 3/2 on a blackjack.

if you play the game to perfection, both BJ & craps give the house very little vig.

about 1/2 of 1%.

and that's at a 2x odds table. Most houses now have 5x odds, so the vig is even less

chipman just remember that once you play craps and have even some moderate success, you may find out that nothing else in the casino interests you much anymore, at least that is what has happened to me and my friends thru the years. The most fun thing you can do in a casino except I suppose hitting a mega jackpot.
