There are 8 casinos in Denmark, 6 on land and 2 on the ocean wave.
Denmark has recently set a Gambling Act 2010 and had executive orders thereafter from 2011 to 2018- which means tweaks and further legislation. Regardless of the ‘new’ legal status the industry brought in the order of 900 Million USD (DKK 6.4 Billion) in 2018. The licensed gambling in Denmark is well regulated.
Entry to Casinos in Denmark is well controlled. You must be 18 years of age and provide your means and current place of stay. A consistency of allowing them to take your photo is normal for Casinos. Video can also be recorded for a period of 3 months unless a complaint or situation arises then the data can be stored and used for 2 years.
The Aalborg Casino & Hotel
A dedicated Poker room with a Thursday tournament. Gold finishings and games such as American Roulette create a draw for the table player. Of course the 30 slots on offer are also enjoyed by a different type of gambler.
Located in the North East of Denmark Aalborg is a waterside city. The hotel casino is located on the river Limfjord.
The Royal Scandinavian Casino Aarhus
With Antiquities and old world style galore you will feel invincible in The Royal- not great for a gambler! But then again you may feel disappointment as you agree with the TripAdvisor reviewers. Sadly it has great potential. Still there are games to be played.
Always gamble with safety and responsibility. Gaming tables allow you to test your skill in Blackjack and luck on Roulette.
The other 4 land based casinos are:

The Marienlyst Casino & Hotel Elsinore
Known more for being the oldest Casino in Denmark. You can find electronics, slots and table games. As with most Casinos you can find a bite to eat and drink. There is sometimes entertainment.
The Copenhagen Casino & Radisson Blu
Mostly one of the best hotels rather than the best casinos in Denmark. It’s still a place to find a game.
The Big Six Wheel like roulette is dynamic. It is way simpler than roulette to make bets however with simple areas representing odds like 5-1. The croupier will make your money into chips to place onto the table before spinning the luxuriously decorated wheel.
This game is also less commonly called the wheel of fortune.
You can find that some wheels offer different odds and have different segments so it’s best to check on each and every wheel you play.
The wheel has segments divided by pins. These pins denote the limit of a winning segment by way of a rubber pointer. The rubber pointer flexes whilst the wheel spins imparting resistance and slowing the wheel.
Money Wheel Variation
The money wheel variation is mostly found in US casinos. It has different dollar amounts $1, $2, $5, $10 and $20 bills with corresponding odds. So 1$ is even odds and $5 is 5 to 1 etc. There can be a Joker and casino logo segment which can rack up odds of 45 to 1.
House Advantage
The wheel of fortune has one of the highest house advantages across the casino games on offer. For the smallest bet of $1 it’s around 11% rising to more than 24% (average) for the Joker at a 40-1 game.
Dice Game Variation
3 dice with different values are shown in each segment and you pick a number from 1 to 6. Matching one , two or three of the dice face numbers on the winning segment gives you different prize money. 1:1 for one match, 2:1 match 2 die, or 3:1 for matching all dice.
Horse Racing Variation
A more rare style is the horse racing variation where each segment had a winning horse a second place horse and third place etc..
When you think of Sweden you think of order and freedom and high taxes. You don’t think of Casinos and gambling. It follows that Sweden has just 3 casinos in it’s bigger cities. They are also all run under the same group which is state run the Casino Cosmopol. There used to be a 4th in Sundsvall but due to Covid 19 it was decided to not reopen the venue.
Poker is a common theme game popular in Sweden and a variety of tournaments and cash games are available.
Like the triplet of casinos you can dine and find entertainment such as comedy music and dancing.
The common rules for all 4 casinos are as follows:
The dress code is smart with no open ended shoes or sportswear allowed. You might like to take the opportunity to get dressed up. Though you can’t leave your hat on for any Tom Jones fans out there.

The Spanish love to gamble and spend almost as much as any other nation! It follows unsurprisingly that they love a good Casino. It may also be one of the reasons that the idea for Euro Vegas was hatched.One of the boldest casino plans aptly named Euro Vegas never happened but you can read about it here. In the end the investor thought he could write his own Spanish and EU law and it fell down due to smoking inside a public space. The 30 billion macro resort complex would have been something huge!
