THE
EXITING OF GAMBLING
Everyone is tried to play online casino gambling.
Unfortunately, most of them don't know what they're
doing. It's not the players' fault. The public hasn't
been allowed much practice for nearly a century. And
of course casinos are happy to explain the rules,
but they're less eager to explain odds and strategies.
In some cases the casinos don't even know the optimal
strategies. Why should they? Gamblers are on their
own and it shows.
Most casino
games are designed to keep between 1% and 10% of a
player's money. Yet players lose on average about
20% to 40% of every dollar they take into a casino.
Much of
the loss can be attributed to the practice of repeatedly
risking the same money (pressing bets), but some of
it is simply the result of playing badly. It's amazing,
but millions of players lose billions of dollars every
year because they make mistakes. They use faulty strategy
and flawed systems. They throw away the wrong cards,
hit when they should stand, call when they should
fold, bet when they should walk away, and otherwise
stack the odds to their disfavor. |

CASINO
CLUB MEMBERSHIPS
Obviously, you're not going to play video poker at
that casino. Your stay may be three days, and even
at the end of that time you might find the largest
payout is only $1,600 or $1,700. The best thing to
do is go to a casino where there are payouts in the
$2,000 range. Once there, immediately join the membership
club at that casino. Speak to a host about a future
visit to that hotel. If the casino personnel see that
you're spending some serious hours playing the video
poker machines, they may suggest you stay at their
hotel-casino the next trip around. They may also offer
you a special rate as an inducement.
They'll
know about your action from the credits you're piling
up on the card. But it's also a good idea to introduce
yourself to a floor person in the video poker section.
There's bound to be someone around the area. Get to
be known. It can only help you. Don't remain anonymous
if you want future comps and benefits.
Remember,
when you go to a new casino to play, look for the
area that gives out membership cards. Casinos have
different names for these areas. Some may call it
a "Fun Club" or Player's Club" or whatever
name they deem feasible. But it won’t be hard
to find the area. If you can't find one, ask security.
They usually will direct you. Or ask floor person
anywhere on the floor, behind any pit. They'll help
you out. And get that card before playing. While you're
at it, ask if the can be used for table games. Some
casinos will allow this is a quick way to keep track
of a person's gambling. |
