When you walk through a brick-and-mortar casino, you get an idea of which slot machines are popular and which aren’t pretty quickly. Most people want to play the hottest games even if that means waiting in line. Fortunately for Bodog Casino players, you never have to wait in line to play a game, nor do you have to see a mob of people surrounding certain gaming stations in order to see what’s popular.
That’s because we have a Most Popular tab on our casino homepage that gets updated daily with the games that are drawing the most action at the time. These could be online slots, table games, specialty games—you name it. If enough people play it, it’s guaranteed to show up in this section of our online casino. In this article, we’re showcasing six games in particular that are part of the Most Popular list at press time, so you can play online casino with real money the same way everyone else is.
Blackjack
Blackjack has been the most popular table game since casinos first started offering it, and it’s no wonder why. This game is quick to learn and makes it possible to implement strategy into game decisions. It has an incredibly low house edge, making it a go-to game for casino gaming aficionados. Plus, it’s just plain fun to face off against the dealer.
Although we have eight versions of online Blackjack (plus our live dealer options), our most popular variants are Blackjack, Classic Blackjack and Double Deck Blackjack. The first two utilize six-deck shoes, while the third option has a two-deck shoe. Other differences include the mobile experience. People who prefer to use their smartphones for casino games will have a better overall experience by playing the mobile-optimized Blackjack and Double Deck Blackjack. The Classic suite of Blackjack games is best suited for desktop and laptop players.
A Night with Cleo
Spending a night with the beautiful Cleopatra is an opportunity most people wouldn’t pass up, and that’s why this game consistently gets the most action of any of our online slots. Launch a session, and you’ll be transported back in time to Ancient Egypt, where you’ll spin the reels under a starry sky. The base game includes wild icons, a random progressive jackpot and scatters that can trigger 15 free spins.
One of the most intriguing features in A Night With Cleo is the game’s Gamble feature. Following every win, you have the option of trying to double your payout in a game of Double-or-Nothing. Cleopatra will present you with two closed fists, and you must pick the one you think contains gold coins; guess right and you get 2X your payout, while Cleopatra celebrates in an act of seduction.
Keno Draw
Keno Draw is a modern version of the classic lotto game Keno and has been popular for years now. The layout in this mobile-friendly version is superior to the classic, and you can customize your experience by selecting one of six background colours in the game settings.
The same rules persist with this new version as did the old. Select up to 15 numbers from a 1-80 number grid, or use the Quick Pick feature, and then click “GO” to launch the action. 20 numbers will be drawn at random, and any matches (hits) are highlighted on the grid. A table appears beside your number selection pre-draw that shows you the number of hits required to trigger each payout; the maximum payout awarded is a massive $250,000.
Mega Moolah
Microgaming’s Mega Moolah is known for having paid out the highest jackpot in history for an online slot. Our version has four jackpots ticking away over top of the game reels. Each of the four jackpots has its own maximum payout, which starts with the smallest pot (the Mini) on the right and progresses to the biggest multi-million-dollar pot (the Mega) on the left.
The fun part of these jackpots is in how they’re triggered. Typically, progressive jackpots are triggered randomly at the end of a spin, or given as a reward for landing the game’s top-paying line. These jackpots, however, build suspense through a special Progressive Jackpot Wheel. If you land the bonus, you’ll see a big wheel appear on screen that contains colours that correspond with each jackpot. Cross your fingers as you spin—it’s your chance to win a life-changing sum of money.
Jacks or Better (1 Hand)
The gateway to video poker, Jacks or Better is a simple low-variance game based on five-card draw poker. Place your wager and you’ll be dealt five cards at random. Then you choose which (if any) of the five cards you want to hold on to; the unwanted cards are replaced with new ones, at which point, your hand is declared a winner or loser.
In order to win, you need a pair of Jacks or better. Hands are based on poker rankings and include Pair, 2 Pair, 3 of a Kind, Straight, Flush, Full House, 4 of a Kind, Straight Flush and Royal Flush. Wins are followed by the opportunity to play a round of Double-or-Nothing against the dealer. In order to beat the dealer, you select one of four cards placed face-down on the screen hoping that it is a higher-ranking card than the dealer’s pick.
Let ‘Em Ride
If poker-based games like Jacks or Better appeal to you, you may also want to try out poker-based table games. Let ‘Em Ride is our most popular and uses Texas Hold’Em as a base; however, you’ll be playing solo instead of against opponents. The goal of the game is to land a pair of 10s or better. You don’t get the option to fold in this game; instead, you can choose to raise or simply continue to move forward without staking more money.
Let ‘Em Ride is one of the few table games that includes a progressive jackpot as a side bet. For $1 a round, you’ll be eligible to win some or all of the pot of money displayed at the top of the screen, based on your hand. A Flush is good or $75, whereas the Royal Flush will take the whole thing. Go on out there and see what you can win. It could be your lucky day.
