What about 3 card poker?
Although not as exciting as blackjack or Craps, this game also has a lot of serious adepts.
I've only played it twice but somehow liked its more relaxed pace.
This is how it goes:
The player starts by placing 2 bets:
1) An ante (a must).
2) A pair-plus bet, optional, but it's the best way to make money.
The dealer then deals 3 cards face down to the players and to himself.
After looking at their cards, the players decide whether to stay or fold. Folding means losing both bets of course
.
But if a player decides to stay, he then must match the ante bet with an additional wager and be ready to face the dealer's cards.
If the dealer's cards win, he takes everything, except if the player has (loses with) a straight flush, 3 of a kind or a straight, in which case the player wins an ante bonus: 5:1 for a SF, 4:1 for 3 of a kind and 1:1 for a straight (That's even if the dealer wins and takes the pair-plus bet).
There's a catch though (Obvious house advantage 😣). In order for the dealer to pay for a winning pair-plus bet, he has to be qualified, meaning he has to have a Q or higher in his hand, otherwise the bet is returned to the player with no profit.
I'm honestly not very sure about how the last part works. Maybe one of you guys can clarify it a bit more, thank you.
