• "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."

  • "The most confusing type of slot machine are the 'Buy-a-Pay' machines. On these, the payout for wins is based on how much you bet, where playing anything other than max coins doesn't make sense."

  • "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."

  • "Nearly every casino game in the world has an EV under zero, which means that the house has an edge over the player. You might win occasionally, but in the long run you will lose."

  • "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."
