Casino war has an edge of only 0.15%. That means for every $100 in bets, the casino will only keep about $0.15 in profit on average. Compare that to most other games and war really is one of the best for players.
Slots have an average house edge over 5%. That amounts to the casino keeping $5 or more of every $100 wagered. Some video poker games are a bit less bad, but slots in general should be considered sucker bets.
Roulette is brutal with a house edge of 5.26%. That's over $5 in profit for the casino on each $100 bet. Ouch!
Baccarat also has a relatively small house edge at 1.06%, but that still adds up over huge bets. The banker and player bets that actually have a tiny player advantage also have a 5% commission, so the house still wins.
Blackjack using basic strategy still gives the house about a 1% edge. Card counting can swing the advantage to the players, but the house will always have an edge in the long run.
Craps varies a lot by bet but some suckers bets have a house edge over 11%. The pass/don't pass and come/don't come bets should be avoided.
The Big Six Wheel is crazy with a 25% house edge. Only pull the lever on the bonus square when it's lit up, and even then the house will win most of the time.
Casino Hold'em and Three Card Brag also have pretty rough house edges of 14-15% and 5-5.5% respectively. Yeah, just walk by those games.
So while no game really has "good" odds to beat the house in the long run, casino war is about as good as you'll find with most of your money still in your pocket after playing. The 0.15% house edge means you'll only lose $0.15 for every $100 wagered on average. That's significantly less than losing $5 or more per $100 at slots, roulette or other sucker games.
Overall, remember no game gives players an advantage, but if you're gonna gamble, at least only do it at the ones with the smallest house edge. And of course, only bet what you can afford to lose at any game. Bank on luck, but don't count on it!
