What casino game is decided only by the player?

I would think that one could argue that the cards were shuffled by casino dealers in baccarat. In craps, the player who holds the dice, is the one who ultimately decides the outcome.

Craps does not qualify since it was the dealer (stickman) that gave you the dice and you have to way to verify that they are fair dice.
Actually, in the game of Craps the dice are the "RNG", and the player sets them in motion .....

Very similar to slots or VP, only just not electronic.

Therefore no casino game is decided solely by the player, .................... no matter what a pit boss said.

That may be, but why does it seem that the pretty woman always has a good roll, while the bum with the dark cloud above his head, always 7's out after three or four rolls?
I guess if the craps player supplies his own dice then he could be said to be in control.
Well I know this is controversial, but dice setters could argue that they decide the game.

I'm thinking "to be incontrol" one would have to roll whatever number he wanted, whenever he wanted.

Otherwise the shooter is not in control.

Besides, what casino in its right mind would allow gambling on a game that is decided ONLY by the action of the player.

Think about it !!!!!! ...... I don't care what the Pit Boss said.


Rick
a pit boss is just another schmo in a tie
Rick... if the casino has a magnet that makes the dice show a certain number, then the shooter no longer controls the outcome of the throw.

Otherwise in craps, there is no RNG, there is no deal from a dealer, there is no shuffle by a dealer or machine, there is no spin of a wheel by a dealer, there is no computer picking the numbers in keno.

In craps the shooter throws two dice and the result of that throw determines the game.

Will this be another 200 post thread? LOL
