"1930s Montana saw a game similar to the 'Chinese Lottery' become popular as people could win a lot of money from a tiny bet. Eventually this game travelled to the legal gambling pastures of Nevada."

"The minimum bet at a roulette table is per bet, not per player. Therefore, if the table minimum is $10, every bet made must be $10 or more. Combined bets don't count towards the minimum."

"Ideally, all bets should be made with chips. However, casinos will allow one-time bets made with cash. To confirm this bet, the dealer will say, 'money plays'. if you win, you will receive your winnings in casino chips."

"Casinos issue dollar slot tokens for the same reason, they don't seem like real money. But of course they are worth a dollar and you should always think about them like real dollars, not tokens."

"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."
