Casino Player July 2022

The key to casino play is to try to keep your losses as small as possible. All casino gamblers know— or should know—that the house has an edge on every game and just about every bet at every game. “

No perfection: No hand in blackjack, even a blackjack itself, is a per fect hand as blackjacks can tie with the dealer’s blackjack

EXTRA NOTES Avoid: Blackjack games where the payout for a blackjack is 6 to 5 as the house edge might more than double in such games. Rules count: The more liberal the rules at the game,the better it is for the player; the more restrictive the rules, the better it is for the casino. Giving advice: Even if a player asks you for advice, politely tell that player to ask the dealer. Even seemingly nice players might get angry if your advice fails them; best to remain silent. COMPS Almost all casino players who hand in a player’s card will get some kind of comps. • comps are not judgements of your character. • they are judgements based on what the house considers howmuch on average you will lose playing your way at your level of stakes over time. • the house wants to establish your theoretical loss and they will comp you based on that. • comps are not free stuff, they are based on your potential losses. • your casino rating is based on the“quality”of your potential losses.
