"Every reel on a slot machine has a certain number of stops which contain either symbols or nothing. While machines with physical reels usually have 22 stops, virtual slot machines can have hundreds of stops."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"Dealers are prohibited from making any direct transactions with players. You must place your money on the table where the dealer will convert it to chips and place the chips in front of you."
