• "Nearly every casino game in the world has an EV under zero, which means that the house has an edge over the player. You might win occasionally, but in the long run you will lose."

  • "The mathematical probability of something happening is its true odds. Casinos maintain their advantage by paying players less than the true odds of their wins."

  • "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 win in blackjack when the sum of your cards equals twenty-one or less and you beat the dealer. You beat the dealer when you have a higher hand or the dealer goes over twenty-one."

  • "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'."
