Something unmentioned is that casinos always attack the deck in their favor – figuratively, not literally. They play the odds. The first is there for a quick win, the casino is there for the long haul, so if the casino even has 55% chance of winning, they won’t win every time, but more often then not, they’re going to take a profit.

In games that require skill or where “odds” can’t really be played, the casino has an automatic pull – a rake, I think it’s called.

The casino doesn’t need to actually cheat. They will statistically always make more money as long as they can keep people in the casino.

These odds are also how they catch cheaters. If the odds of the house winning is 65% and you stay consistently above them, they’re going to pay very close attention to you. They won’t beat the fuck out of you anymore; they’re much smarter. They’re going to see if they can figure out how you’re cheating. If they can’t, they will literally pay you to teach them so they can determine the next course of action on addressing the problem.
