"It's usually best to go to a casino with cash only; no credit cards, debit cards, or checkbooks. You don't want to be tempted to play with more money than you can afford."

"Ideally, all bets should be made with chips. However, casinos will allow one-time bets made with cash. To confirm this bet, the dealer will say, 'money plays'. if you win, you will receive your winnings in casino chips."

"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'."

"Speed is good for the casino but bad for you. The more times you play per hour, the more the house edge compounds and makes it more likely that you will lose overall."

"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."
