Game Types at Michigan Casino

Below is a summary of the different types of games you can play online. For more in depth information about your favorite game format, click the links below.

Casino Table Games

Casino table games are traditionally games of chance where you sit at a table that is operated by a live croupier.

The most popular table games in Michigan are Blackjack, Roulette, Let it Ride, Craps, Baccarat and Pai Gow Poker. Most land based and online casinos in Michigan offer a number of variations of these formats.

Online versions of these games are similar but without the live croupier. The games use a random number generator (RNG) to randomize the result and ensure fairness when playing.

You can visit the Casino Table Games in Michigan section for more information about how to play the games, and even start playing yourself some of the exciting variants on offer such as Blackjack Doubler and Queen of Diamonds for the chance to win cash prizes.

Slots Games

Slot games are also chance based games in which you place a bet at an electronic device (or machine) to spin the reels for the chance to win cash.

Most online casinos in Michigan have a multitude of slot variants including, 3 reel, 5 reel, multi-line combinations, progressive jackpots and slot tournaments.

These games are always themed, often with some iconic brands and top titles such as Wheel of Fortune, Divine Fortune, and 88 Fortune.

The Online Slots Michigan section provides a more comprehensive glossary of some of the slot variants on offer and also the chance to play one of a number of games Michigan Casino has to offer.

Keno Games

Keno is a lottery-style game in which players must choose up to 20 numbers from a squared grid of numbers 1-80. The more numbers the player picks, the higher the potential prize pool if they match all the numbers. However, the minimum number of numbers matched must also be higher in order to win a cash prize.

Players often adopt different strategies to keno, with many players trying to match between just 4-8 numbers. While the odds of winning by matching these numbers is higher, the prize amount available is conversely lower.

Most casinos in Michigan have dedicated keno lounges for players who enjoy this game format. Online, there are a number of variants of this game available for keno lovers to play.

Keno has been a staple of Michigan’s land-based casinos for many years and now you can experience the thrill of keno online at Michigan Casino. There are fun twists on classic keno games in Bullseye Keno and Fuzzball Keno or take a shot at the $500,000 jackpot in the Instant Keno Multiplier game.

Visit the Michigan Keno section to learn more about this exciting game and potential strategies to make your keno experience a rewarding one.

More specifically, these checks will include items such as; player data security, deposit limits and self exclusion limits for responsible gaming, ensuring that the games pass stringent random number generator tests to ensure fairness, finances in place to cover player winnings, and the ability to make timely payments back to customers.

Any business running an online casino must pass these stringent tests in order to be granted a licence and operate legal online casinos in Michigan.

When do Online Casinos open in Michigan?

Unlike land based casinos who’s opening and closing times vary depending upon the jurisdiction or the operators discretion, online casinos in Michigan are available to play 24/7.

Is the online casino in Michigan I'm playing at properly licensed and regulated?

Yes. In order to operate an online casino in Michigan, the relevant company and websites must undergo stringent checks by the Michigan Gaming Control board before being approved and awarded with an online gaming license.

As a result, all licensed online casinos in Michigan are regulated to the highest standards. Player data and balances are protected, and the game outcomes are randomized with 100% certainty. Also, all sites must put in place certain measures such as deposit limits to ensure safe and responsible gaming should you wish to control your betting limits.

If you are unsure about a site you are playing at, you can visit the MIchigan Gaming Control Board website. Here you will find a list of regulated online casinos in Michigan and options to make a complaint about a specific operator or platform.

Do I need to be a resident to play online casinos in Michigan?

Players must be either permanent residents or visitors located within the jurisdiction of Michigan to play for real money any online casino regulated by the Michigan Gaming Control board. Players must also be over the age of 21 to make real money wagers.

Furthermore, there is nothing to stop residents of Michigan playing offshore gambling sites that sit outside the control or jurisdiction of the MGCB as there are no state or federal laws that prevent access to these platforms, many of which can legally accept real money wagers from players 18 years or older.

Can I trust Michigan online casinos to payout winnings?

Online casinos that have been certified and approved by the MGCB can be trusted to pay winnings to your bank account. However you will need to go through an ID verification process that checks your age, identity and proof of address the first time you make a withdrawal.

Your withdrawal typically takes between 1-4 days to be processed

Are the Michigan casinos online games rigged?

In order to be licenced by the MGCB, all games promoted and operating by regulated casinos in Michigan will have undergone rigorous Random Number Generator tests by an independent 3rd party company that involves millions of simulated draws or spins to ensure ALL the games are completely random and fair.

What is a random number generator?

A random number generator (RNG) is a piece of hardware or software algorithm that produces completely random results from a large data set of numbers.

Online casinos typically use a pseudo random number generator, or piece of software which uses a combination of mathematical equations and user input to produce randomized numbers and results on its casino and slot games.

Which Michigan online casino games have the best payouts?

Payouts or return to player (RTP) is usually determined by the specific game itself. Online slot games tend to have a significantly higher RTP (90-98%) than land based slot machines (70-90%)

So for example if an online slot game has a 90% RTP, this means on average for every $100 wagered the machine pays back $90 in winnings.

Another factor to consider is the volatility of a game which determines how often a payout is awarded. Slot games with high volatility will payout less frequently but the payout will be higher. Slot games with low volatility will payout lower amounts but more frequently.

Reputable online casinos in Michigan will publish each individual slot game’s RTP either on the game page or within the game so that you can make an informed decision about the chances of winning before you start wagering.

Table games have a more standardized RTP due to the games rules. For example, Blackjack operates at around 98%, though this can vary based upon the players decision making.

Also, game variants and house rules can also have a bearing on RTP. For example European roulette (where there are 37 numbers from 0 to 36) has an RTP of 97.3%. However American roulette has 38 numbers with two 0s, producing a lower RTP of 94.7%.

Will I have to pay taxes on online casino winnings in Michigan?

Yes. Under federal law, all gambling winnings are considered taxable income, including winnings from online casinos.

If you win more than $600 in a single online casino session and opt to withdraw it, the online casinos should send you a Form W-2G, which provides a breakdown of your winnings and any taxes owed.

It is then the your obligation to report this as income and declare it on your federal tax return as well as file a state tax return and pay any income tax on your winnings at state level.

Where can I go if I wish to visit a real Michigan casino?

Across the state of Michigan there are 16 recognized land-based casinos complexes, most of which are tribal casinos. Tribal casinos are Native American casinos, situated on Indian lands federally recognised as independent nations by the State of Michigan.

As such they are not regulated like commercial casinos by the Michigan Gaming Control Board, but by the National Indian Gaming Commission.

Tribal casinos are usually larger than their commercial counterparts due to the size of the land. Commercial casinos are often restricted by commercial real estate that they purchase or lease.

An example of this is the Soaring Eagle Hotel & Resort which is Michigan’s largest casino and one of the largest in the US.

There are 13 tribal casinos in Michigan, most of which are located in Upper Peninsula Michigan, and 3 commercial casinos in Detroit.
