Las Vegas may be the mecca of gambling, but if you’re a poker fan in Budapest look no further than Las Vegas Casino Corvin sétány – just make sure you’ve checked there’s an event on before you pay a visit to this great casino!

Grand Casino, Debrecen

Once the largest and capital city of Hungary, Debrecen is one of the jewels of central Europe. It has the country’s most successful football team, an array of museums, a flower carnival, the Hortobágyi national park, and a superb casino – the Grand Casino Debrecen, which has a range poker, slots, blackjack, and roulette games for you to play.

While there’s something for almost every gambler at Grand Casino Debrecen, what’s most impressive is the 220 4-tier jackpot slots you can pick from.

The minimum bet you’ll be able to place is 20 Hungarian Forints (about £0.57), but you can go all the way up to 10,000 Forints (around £25.54) if you’re feeling particularly flush.

The thing to remember about slot machines is that they’re a chance-based form of betting. This means you won’t find any ‘loose’ or ‘tight’ slots when you’re gambling at Grand Casino Debrecen, just an excellent selection of machines.

Casino, Sopron

Located in a city that was first established in the 2nd century, Casino Sopron has been giving gamblers a place to cast a bet since 1989. With blackjack, roulette, Texas hold’em, and slots to pick from, Casino Sopron is a diverse betting arena that rightly takes its place as one of the star venues of Hungarian gambling.

Roulette fans will adore Casino Sopron, as the casino has a range of different roulette tabes (from American to Alfastreet electronic) and the minimum bets start from as little as 50 cents – just make sure you keep within your bankroll when making your bets!

While Casino Sopron provides some helpful advice on its website about how to play roulette, we recommend that you read up on the odds of roulette before you sit at one of this casino’s many great tables. 

Hungary has an enormous amount of history, culture, and sights for you to explore. It’s also got plenty of great casinos for gamblers to explore and the three casinos in this are just a third of the gambling venues for you to try out. So, give Las Vegas Casino Corvin, Grand Casino, and Casino a go, then place a bet at one of the other 6 great land casinos in Hungary!
