France

France is the birthplace of two of the most popular casino games – Roulette and Blackjack. If you have travelled the world and visited various types of casino, then you might be surprised how different the casinos here are, compared to those of Las Vegas. An awful lot of France’s revenue comes from slot machines which means many of the rooms are filled with machines rather than poker tables.

The Parisian casino, The Aviation Club de France, is famed for conducting some of the World Poker Tour tournaments. Many world famous personalities play in this tournament and the casino is known for offering a record breaking prize pool.

Below are just few casinos you shouldn’t miss out on when visiting France.

The Lyon Vert Casino

This luxurious venue is France’s largest casino, boasting around 400 slot machines. In addition, it is also home to a variety of poker tables, as well as Roulette wheels and Blackjack. Unlike the States, the age restriction here is 18 years and above.
