Understanding Expected Value

Expected Value (EV) tells you the average return per dollar wagered over many games. A game with 70% RTP means for every $1 you bet, you'll get back $0.70 on average — in the long run. Any individual game can vary wildly.

RTP Comparison

Keno: 65–80% RTP
Slots: 92–96% RTP
Roulette: 94.7% RTP
Blackjack: 99.5% RTP (optimal play)
