table game

In casinos, the term table game is used to distinguish games such as blackjack, craps, roulette and baccarat that are played on a table and operated by one or more live s like a croupier or poker dealer, from games played on a mechanical device like a video slot machine. The term has significance in that some jurisdictions permit casinos to have only slots and no table games. In some states, this law has made casinos host electronic table games, such as roulette, blackjack, and poker.
