When you think of Mario, you probably imagine running through pipes, jumping on hordes of Koopa Troopas and saving Princess Peach from Bowser\u2019s castles. But in this article, we want to look at another hobby of the Italian plumber: playing cards and casino games. Some of the best online casino games<\/a> have been featured in several Mario games over the years, and here are our favourites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

1. Slots<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Slots are the most popular game in the casino\ngenre, and that\u2019s not without reason. A single spin on a slot machine can pay\nout huge prizes, whether you\u2019re playing classic slot machines or online slots\nwith advanced graphics and features. Slots have been featured in various Mario\ngames, including Super Mario 3D World and Mario\u2019s latest adventure, Super Mario\nOdyssey. In Odyssey, players try to match three symbols to win coins, hearts or\nthe top prize: a power moon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Blackjack<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Blackjack is one of the most iconic casino\ngames in the world. The goal is simple: to beat the dealer and get as close to\n21 as possible without going over. Luigi-Jack is a blackjack-like mini-game\nthat was introduced in New Super Mario Bros for the Nintendo DS. This is a\nsimplified blackjack game in which the aim is to hit 21 in as few cards as\npossible. The player doubles their coins by getting 21, and a blackjack (or\nLuigi-Jack) with only two cards rewards them with triple coins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Poker<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Another casino classic found in Mario is\npoker. Video poker is a mix between traditional poker and a slot machine. The\naim of the game is simply to get the best possible hand by swapping cards. In\nSuper Mario 64 DS from 2004, players can try their luck in video poker with a\nfun twist. Instead of standard cards with clubs, diamonds, hearts and spades,\neach card features classic symbols from the Mario series. To take down the pot,\nplayers have to beat the opponent by creating the best combination with five\ncards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Roulette<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Video poker isn\u2019t the only casino game\nfeatured in Super Mario 64 DS – it also comes with a roulette mini-game.\nRoulette is one of the most popular casino games of all time, and players can\nexperience a simplified version of the game in the classic DS game from 2004.\nRoulette is a game of luck, and the same is true for Mushroom Roulette, as it\nis called in Super Mario 64 DS. At the start of the game, Luigi throws the ball\non the roulette wheel, and the player\u2019s task is to guess where it will land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Texas Hold\u2019em<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Luigi’s Thrilling Cards isn\u2019t exactly the same\nas Texas Hold\u2019em but it\u2019s the closest you can get in the Mario universe.\nIntroduced in New Super Mario Bros for the DS, the game is built on the same\nconcept as the traditional poker game. This mini-game is only available in\nversus mode, as it requires two human players. Players bet on whether they have\nthe highest cards, and they can raise, bet or fold – just like in Texas\nHold\u2019em!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
