"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."

"The long run, so to speak, is the expected amount that you would win or lose if you played the game long enough to equal an average result. This is expressed as the EV, or expected value."

"Casinos typically put their wheel of fortune tables right at the entrance to the casino, hoping that suckers will plop some money down as soon as they walk in. You should just keep on walking."

"Casinos never make rule changes that benefit the player; if you see a new rule, it's bad for you. For example, some casinos are starting to pay 6:5 for blackjacks instead of the better 3:2."

"Casinos are specifically laid out to be disorienting and make you get lost so you keep playing. When you first walk in, pick a good landmark which can help you find the exit again."
