"In the early 20th century, slots were made illegal. To get around this, slot machines were made to look like vending machines and players would actually get sticks of gum every time they played."

"The lights on the top of slot machines aren't just for decoration. Called 'candles', the colour of the bottom light denotes the machine's denomination: nickels yellow, quarters yellow, and dollars blue."

"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."

"In shoe-dealt blackjack, you must use your hands to tell the dealer what you want to do. While you can also say your intention out loud, the hand signals are required for the security cameras."

"When playing single or double deck blackjack, the cards are dealt face-down and each player has to pick them up with one hand. You cannot share your hand with the other players."
