"There are no clocks in casinos because they want to make time seem slower; the longer you stay, the more you play. So don't forget to bring your phone or wear a watch."

"The roulette wheel is always kept spinning at a constant rate, even if no one is currently playing. The ball is spun in the opposite direction in order to ensure more randomness in the result."
