"Casino carpets are ugly, and they are ugly for a reason. By making it hard to look at the carpets, you are more likely to look at the tempting slots and tables."

"Casino results are expressed as probabilities, usually as a decimal amount between zero and one where zero is impossible and one always happens. For example, the chance of a flipped coin being tails is 0.5."

"You cannot convert your chips back to cash at the table. Instead, ask to 'colour up' and the dealer will convert your stack to higher denominations. Then take your chips to the cashier's cage to get cash back."

"Players with smaller bankrolls should look for multiplier slot machines because you get paid the same relative amount no matter how many coins you play. So one coin bet wins you ten, two coins win twenty, etc."

"It's far too common for players who win to keep playing, reasoning that they are playing with the house's money. But it's not the house's money, it's yours. Always remember that."
