"The cost of playing in a casino can be deceiving. Unlike going to the ballet where the price is set, the price of casino gambling can change quickly and can be impossible to predict."

"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."

"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'."

"The simplest, yet worst way to leave a casino is when you've lost all your money. It's hard to walk away when you are up, but the best gamblers learn how to maintain discipline and keep their winnings."
