• "Playing baccarat is one of the best things you can do in the casino. The house edge is incredibly low but unlike blackjack, you don't have to make any decisions which affect the game."

  • "In addition to classic casino games, modern casinos have adapted an old side-show classic, the 'wheel of fortune', to the casino. Some casinos also call this sucker game the 'big six wheel'."

  • "Every table game has its own maximum and minimum allowable bets, which are always indicated by a small sign on the table. Often the sign colour corresponds to the same colour chip, $5 tables are red, etc."

  • "If you turn over a playing card, the chance it will be red is 0.5, or 50%. If the casino was fair, it would pay you $1 for a $1 bet. But if a casino pays you $0.90 instead, it has a 5% edge."

  • "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."
