• "Baccarat is a French word, therefore the game is pronounced in French. To sound like a pro: the 't' at the end is silent, while the first syllable should be 'baa' like a sheep."

  • "Nearly all modern slot machines pay out winning combinations that start on the furthest left reel and progress to the right. Keep that in mind when it looks like you won, but didn't get paid."

  • "Every table game has its own maximum and minimum allowable bets, which are always indicated by a small sign on the table. Often the sign colour corresponds to the same colour chip, $5 tables are red, etc."

  • "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."

  • "The Random Number Generator on each slot machine uses a complicated formula to generate numbers. This algorithm is known to the authorities, who can test machines to ensure they are working properly."
