Lakeside Inn & Casino
brings two important pluses to Table Games

(1) Our dealers and supervisors are the friendliest on the Hill. In fact, all of our employees have been recognized as such in the Tahoe Daily Tribune's Best of Awards. This means they are fun and approachable. If you want to learn how to play, they are more than happy to show you.

(2) We only hire experienced/professional dealers. You don't have to double-check their math on a blackjack count or their payoff on the craps game. They know what they are doing.

Games at Lakeside Inn & Casino
The games offered are "just the basics" blackjack, craps and roulette. While we will always keep an eye open for new "carnival" games which might appeal to our players, we are reluctant to do so for the following reasons: Most of the "carnival" games are built to give a high return to the casino and a low rate of return to the player. Many of our players are local and have a keen sense of the rules and rate of return. We don't want to gouge them with a usurious proposition.

Blackjack
Straight foreword Northern Nevada rules (See "Gaming Guide"). No enticements to make a silly move for an added bonus, our single deck, double deck and six deck shoe games are consistent with what Northern Nevada has offered for years.

Craps
The basic game with greater leverage for the player. With a flat bet of $5 to $200, the player may take up to 10 times the flat bet in odds. This helps the player ride out cold dice and slam the hot hand (See "Gaming Guide")! Oh, by the way, craps at Lakeside is played on the largest table in Nevada.

Roulette
Lakeside's roulette is played on the finest wheel in existence, the English Huxley wheel. Aside from being beautiful, the Huxley wheel is known for its truly random play, even if it is out of balance.

For those of you who like to keep score, a reader board above the game records prior hits for you. While roulette pay tables are a bit complicated, the game itself is easy to play (See "How to play").
