• "The most common casino bet is an even money bet where you get one chip for every chip you bet. So if you bet one chip, you get your original chip back, plus an additional chip."

  • "Casinos like churn, which is the term casinos use when players continue playing with their winnings. Remember, the longer you play, the more likely the casino is to separate you from your money again."

  • "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."

  • "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."

  • "You can't control luck, but you can control how well you play any game which relies on skill. Study and practice the game as much as possible before you play for real in the casino."
