The list of Equatorial Guinea casinos with gaming tables for blackjack, roulette and so on is really rather short. There are none. However, there are a number of Equatorial Guinea casinos, if we want to use that term for them, which have gaming machines. There are some five of them in the country.

This shouldn’t really be all this surprising in one sense, this lack of Equatorial Guinea casinos. It’s a very small country (10,000 square miles only) with a very small population, about half a million people only. This is smaller than many counties in either the UK or the US and it is very much the smallest country on the African continent.

Another reason it shouldn’t be surprising is that the place is absolutely dirt poor, destitute in fact. Until just a few years ago the only export of any significance was cocoa and while at independence the place was rich off the back of that trade the intervening years of coups, military rulers and the general looting of the economy have taken it from one of the richest places in Africa to one of the poorest. There may be, as many have pointed out, a lot of ruin in a nation but Equatorial Guinea has shown that there isn’t an unlimited supply.

However, one event in 1996 meant that we would have expected the list of Equatorial Guinea’s casinos to lengthen: the first crude oil started to be pumped and the country is now the third largest exporter in Africa. Where there is such volumes of oil there is of course a great deal of money and you might expect some of that to be splashing around in casinos and such places. But here though, almost none of that oil wealth has made it to the people, not even to the Government itself most of the time: the dictator, Obiang, essentially treats the oil revenues and the national Treasury as his personal check book. This means that while the country is rich by the statistics, about as rich as Portugal or Spain, none of this wealth is in the pocketbooks of the people or even the public services: raw sewage runs down the main streets of the capital.

It may in fact be true that a lot of the county’s wealth does indeed pass through casinos but that is much more likely to be done in Monaco or other foreign places where the elite go to spend the money from the oil.

The game of Blackjack takes a lot of knowledge on when to hit, when to stand, and when to double, take insurance, or split a pair into two hands. This can mean the difference between playing blindly and losing or playing smart with a strategy and winning. There are simple rules to the game that are very easy to follow.

In Blackjack you and the dealer start with two cards. Yours will be face up and the casino dealer will have one face up and one face down. You are allowed to hit until you are comfortable with your number or until you bust. This is also the time when you decide to double, take insurance, or split a pair. After that time it is then the casino dealer’s turn. They can hit until they have beat you or until they bust. You then take your earnings, or not, based on who had the best hand.

You may double after you receive your first two cards. If you choose this, you are only allowed one more card, no more. The dealer, however, can continue to hit to try and beat you.

You may take insurance before the game starts if you see that the dealer’s showing card is an Ace. You are really betting against yourself because you are betting on the dealer having Blackjack. So if they do have Blackjack, you lose the hand but win something for taking insurance. If they do not have Blackjack then you lose what you bet on insurance, but win if you have a better hand than the dealer. You may also split if you are dealt a pair.

Blackjack is a game of luck and skill. There are several gambling choices and sometimes, as with insurance, you can win even if you lose. Knowing the rules and tips on when to hit and stand will help you become a better player and maybe even a winner.
