There is a >50% chance for them to win at every step of the way.

They don’t need YOU to lose, they will beat someone else. There’s always more losers than winners at the casino, and because of this, the house always wins.

They have rigged the deck before you set foot on the property. It was rigged at its inception, it has always been rigged against the average man, and it will stay this way for as long as casinos exist.

What happens if this is not true? The casino will ban you for winning too much, literally. This is why counting cards in BJ gets you thrown out. There is a way to win using probabilities, but using this method is will earn you a ban, it’s INSANE.

In a fair game, you can do whatever you need to win. Imagine telling Lebron he isn’t allowed to wear shoes anymore because he’s winning too much basketball.

If the game starts losing the casino money? They can always just scrap the whole thing. They’re not there to provide you a fair chance at winning, they’re there to trick you into playing a losing game so that they can make money
