"When all the bets are placed, the dealer spins the wheel as a rubber flapper at the top flaps between the different stops. Whichever stop the flapper rests on when the wheel stops wins."

"Every slot machine is controlled by a computer chip containing the Random Number Generator. Whether the machine is being played or not, the RNG generates thousands of numbers per second."

"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."

"The bigger the prize, the less likely you are to win it. One to one bets like in blackjack are the easiest to win, while enormous jackpot games also have an enormous house edge."

"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."
