Physical casinos have worse odds than online

Always heard that land based casinos run worse odds than online but never really looked into whether that's actually true or just something people repeat. The atmosphere is obviously different but if you're sitting at a slot in a physical casino are you genuinely at a disadvantage compared to the same game online, or does it depend on the site?
 
It's generally true for slots. Land based machines typically run RTP between 85-92% while online the same title will be set at 96% or higher. The overheads of running a physical floor mean they need more margin from the machines.
 
Table games are a different story though. Blackjack and roulette odds are the same whether you're online or in person, the math doesn't change. It's mainly slots where the RTP difference shows up.
 
went to a casino in barcelona last year and the slot machines felt completely different to playing online. couldnt tell if it was the RTP or just the atmosphere messing with my head
