"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."

"Nearly all modern slot machines pay out winning combinations that start on the furthest left reel and progress to the right. Keep that in mind when it looks like you won, but didn't get paid."

"Playing at a full roulette table is far better than playing at an empty one because it reduces the number of spins you see per hour while qualifying you for better comps through longer play."

"Nowadays, most slot machines have multiple pay lines. You choose how many lines to play and how much to bet on each, but you must bet at least one coin on each line to activate it or winning that line won't count."

"The modern slot machine was born in 1984, when a system of using a Random Number Generator to determine the sequence of stops was invented. This allowed for reels with as many as 256 stops."
