The Dumbest Casino Players In History

Other

I recently bought a condo for the summer in the area of ​​Reno, Nevada. I could no longer tolerate the summer humidity of southern Florida. For those of you who do not know Reno is not like Las Vegas, which is located in the bowl in the middle of the desert. Reno is in the high desert about 5,000 feet above sea level.

I have traveled to Nevada for many years and can not help noticing a very strange decline in the sophistication of the average  더킹카지노  player. I remember a time when table games, roulette, blackjack and crap tables obtained 80% -90% of revenues casinos and slot machines achieve 10% -20% more. Today the whole process has been reversed. Slots get 80% -90% of casino revenue and earning table whatever is left.

The implications of this transformation is very large if you understand the possibilities of casino games. Each table has a chance predictable casino games laid down by law and custom. In short, it is possible to determine the true odds for each play at the casino tables. Possible true for slot machines and casino management known only can be changed as desired. There is only one restriction. By state law, the house edge in Nevada casinos can not exceed 25%. As a practical matter, most casinos set the house edge in the high teens, 16% -18% to be typical.

Contrast this horrible house edge to edge of the house at the casino tables.

In a typical blackjack player will give the house edge of somewhere between 5% -10%. A true hero card counter in one-deck game, which is hard to find these days, could have the advantage of 2% -3% of the home. Just try to pull out of this in the real world. So casinos see that you win you will be escorted out of the casino. In a game of few decks which is the norm counter our ace card may play dead even at home.

For almost every bet on the roulette wheel, the house edge is a reasonable 5.26%.

In the old days when casino players really know what they are doing unrivaled king of the casino tables that crap tables. This is where the term originated high-rollers. If you know what you are, doing this is where you hang out. An astute better able to reduce the house edge to a level of 1.41% and below the 1% depending on the policy of this home opportunities.

Because I have now spent several summers in Reno I decided that the smart money move is to patronize the so-called local casinos that cater to locals than tourist casinos on the strip. The theory here is that local residents received a gift card cleverly superior and better over all deal of tourists ignorant of protected strip.

Boy was I wrong!

As I protected the local casino, I was stunned to see the same stupid behavior I see in the casinos on the strip travel. Table game that gives you a fighting chance to win almost deserted and dumb slot machines more and more action.

What is going on?

I chatted with slots players who tells me that he has lived in Reno for the last 30 years. I asked this proven loser $ 64,000 question. Why he did not pass to table games in which he has a fighting chance to win? He told me that he really did not understand table games and it is too complicated to learn. I do not believe that. I know for sure that there is at least a half dozen books on gambling casinos sound. I have read them.
