Many individuals who gamble in casinos are losers. Not surprising there. This can be witnessed by the multimillion dollar monuments to pleasure that are the nations casinos. They are constructed for one purpose and one purpose only... that's to split up the unsuspecting casino patron from their money.
Gambling generates more annual revenue than movies, spectator sports, amusement parks, cruise ships and the recorded music industry combined. According to recent government statistics, casino gambling generates an estimated $40 billion dollars annually.
The part that amazes me is, it's just as an easy task to win at casino gambling as it would be to lose. The casino table games of craps, blackjack and baccarat (and for probably the most part even-money wagers on roulette) have the cheapest "house percentage" found anywhere offering the player the most truly effective possibility to win.
But, in order to win money gambling, first and foremost, requires the intention of winning. Sounds a little simplistic doesn't it? I constantly hear people tell me, "I visited Caesars Palace or The Sands last week and I only lost $50, $60, $100 or $150." Have you been kidding me? It sounds like they went with the intention of losing. It's like they'd a predetermined amount in their mind that they expected to lose.
Just The Facts
With the above mentioned table games, The "house percentage" in craps "line" bets (pass line/don't pass line) without additional odds bets is only 1.41%. In baccarat it's 1.25% on "player" hands and 1.16% on "bank" hands. Playing blackjack, using a multi-deck "Basic Strategy," your house advantage is non-existent. The casino does not have any edge over the player whatsoever.
It is my strong belief that it is simply as possible for a knowledgeable player to win at casino gambling as it is for the uninformed player to lose. It's regarding intention.
3 Rules for Winning at Casino Gambling
You will find three simple rules the player needs to check out to become a winner. They are:
1. Make only those bets that reduce the "house percentage" to the cheapest possible amount.
2. Money management... set a strict amount that you will wager at each session of play limiting the minimum bet size to only 3 to 5% of the starting bankroll amount. If you happen to lose that amount, stop betting and leave the table.
3. Always leave the table if you are winning. You simple cannot fail walking away a winner. Always play to win and not solely for the thrill of the action. In a word, self-control.
Playing against this type of low house advantage and using a money management system that delivers sufficient resources, there may inevitably be a amount of time in any session of play when you will be in the money.
You can't be concerned with what you may have won. You will not win the chandeliers off the ceiling. Those are completely unrealistic expectations. If you always quit winners you'll always have life left to fight a later date and somewhat more money with which to accomplish so.
You will find actual playing and betting strategies for all these games that definitely shift the benefit to the player in virtually any reasonably short session of play. Failure to check out this simple strategy is the reason most people lose money when gambling in casinos.
It is a enjoyable experience to come back from the trip to the casino successful rather than loser and if you follow these sound principles, you probably can't help but be a winner.
By all means make the most of their elegant rooms, fine dinning, drinks in the lounge or even go see a show. But play intelligently and do all these things on their dime, not yours.
Wishing you the most effective of luck.
