1borneo Table Games — Blackjack, Baccarat & More
This page walks you through all the table game types available at 1borneo — how to play, the basic rules, return rates, and how to choose the game that best suits your style.
Table games at 1borneo use a tested Random Number Generator (RNG) to ensure every outcome is independent and fair, delivering a level playing experience for all players in Malaysia.
How to Read RTP and House Edge in Table Games
Before you play, it's important to understand these two figures. RTP (Return to Player) shows the average percentage of money returned to players over the long run. A simple example: if you play Blackjack with basic strategy and the RTP is 99.5%, it means an average of RM 99.50 is returned for every RM 100 wagered over time. This is a statistical figure, not a guarantee for any single session.
House edge is essentially the flip side of RTP — the lower it is, the better it is for the player. Choosing games with a low house edge is the most straightforward way to play smarter.
| Table Games | Average RTP | House Edge | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Blackjack (basic strategy) | 99.5% | 0.5% | Best for players who know basic strategy |
| Baccarat — Banker bet | 98.94% | 1.06% | 5% commission on Banker wins |
| European Roulette (single zero) | 97.30% | 2.70% | Better odds than the American version (double zero) |
| Three Card Poker | 96.63% | 3.37% | Easy to learn, great for beginners |
All figures are general statistical values. Actual RTP may vary depending on the game provider and version available at 1borneo.
Five Table Game Subtypes You Should Know
Blackjack is a game where players aim to get a card total as close to 21 as possible without going over, while beating the dealer's hand. With basic strategy, players can reduce the house edge to below 0.5%, making Blackjack one of the best-value games in the table games category at 1borneo. Available across a range of betting limits from RM 5 to RM 500 per hand.
Baccarat is the most popular card game among Asian players, including Malaysians. All you need to do is pick between Player, Banker, or Tie. The Banker bet carries the lowest house edge at 1.06% (after commission). Baccarat at 1borneo comes in several versions, including a fast-round variant for shorter sessions and more hands in the same amount of time.
Roulette offers more than a dozen different bet types in a single round. From straight-up single number bets (35:1 payout) to high/low bets (1:1 payout), every player can choose their own risk level. The European version with a single zero gives better odds than the American version. Roulette is a great entry point for players new to table games.
Sic Bo has its roots in Asian gambling tradition and uses three shaken dice. Players predict the outcome across a range of combination options. Big/Small bets (totals of 11–17 or 4–10) are the safest, with a house edge of around 2.78%. Sic Bo brings a culturally familiar feel and is a favourite among Malaysian players looking for something beyond card games.
Beyond the classics, 1borneo also offers variants like Three Card Poker, Casino Hold'em, and Dragon Tiger. These games have simpler rules than full poker but deliver a distinctly different experience. Dragon Tiger in particular is hugely popular — each round takes just a few seconds, making it ideal for players who want to fit in as many hands as possible.
Tiered Betting Limits — Something for Every Player
Table games at 1borneo are available across a wide range of betting limits, so both new and seasoned players can find a table that suits them. New players are encouraged to start at low-limit tables to get comfortable with the interface and game flow before moving up to higher stakes.
High-limit tables are designed for players who are already comfortable with the rules and want to up their stakes. At 1borneo, you can switch between tables without leaving the table games section — all within a single, well-organised interface.
General Betting Limit Options
- Low Stakes (RM 2 – RM 50): Perfect for beginners who want to practise and get familiar with the rules without risking too much.
- Mid Stakes (RM 10 – RM 200): A popular choice for experienced players looking for a more meaningful challenge.
- High Stakes (RM 50 – RM 1,000+): For experienced players looking for higher-value sessions with more serious stakes.
Things New Players Often Overlook
- Use a Blackjack strategy chart. Basic Blackjack strategy has been mathematically worked out and is freely available. Following it significantly reduces the house edge. Many new players go by instinct and end up losing more than they need to.
- Avoid the Tie bet in Baccarat. While the Tie bet offers an 8:1 payout, its house edge exceeds 14% — far higher than the Player or Banker bets. It's tempting, but statistically not a smart wager.
- Check the betting limits before taking a seat at the table. Every table clearly displays its minimum and maximum limits. Make sure your account balance is enough to cover at least 20 rounds at the minimum limit, so you have plenty of time to enjoy your session without feeling rushed.

Account Security and Game Fairness — What You Need to Know
Random Number Generator (RNG) — The Foundation of Fair Play
All table games at 1borneo that operate without a live dealer use an RNG system to determine the outcome of each round. RNG is a computer algorithm that generates unpredictable sequences of numbers, ensuring each round is independent of the last. This means there are no patterns or "streaks" to exploit — every hand dealt or wheel spin starts fresh.
