Know the Odds
The Casino always holds an edge against the player regardless of
what game you play, after all casinos are a business and they’re obvi-
ously in the business of making money, but you on the other hand,
want to win money too! To make money in the long run you’ll need
to learn which games out of all the casino game selections have a
much lower edge. These are a better choice, even if they’re not as
exciting as the rest. Some games may have as high as a 10% or even
higher house edge, making these games unbeatable and not worth
playing for you.
Choosing what games to play and knowing the odds is your first
step to winning at a casino.

Know the Games
Blackjack
This popular game has the lowest house edge of any game in the
casino. For the average player this edge is only 1.5% in favor of the
house. With certain strategies and techniques that will be discussed
later, you can lower this edge even further and in some cases make
the edge in your favor.
Craps
While this game may be hard to understand at first, it also offers
some of the best odds to the player of any casino game. If you dedi-
cate some time to learning the ins and outs of this game, it can be a
very profitable move.
Slots
Depending on which casino you play at, the house edge on slots can
really low. The only drawback to playing slots is that there is no strat-
egy to turn the odds in your favor. However, with already excellent
odds, this makes slots a game worth playing especially when there
are progressive jackpots attached to them. This adds more value to
them making it an even better option.

Betting Strategies
One of the most common strategies to use is called the Martingale
Strategy. This is very simple to use and is statically proven to work.
To apply this method, you simply double your initial wager on all
bets lost. If you win, you keep the bet the same. In the long run this
will guarantee to you to at least break even.
Example:
You’re playing Blackjack for $5 a hand.
You lose the first time, therefore you must bet $10 on the following
hand. You are dealt 21 and win so you go back to betting the initial
$5 as you are now back to even.
You continue this process the whole time playing. If you go on a
streak of losing a few times in a row, each bet must be doubled.
If you bet 5 and lose, you must bet 10 the next hand. If you lose that
hand, your next bet must be double the 10, making it 20 and so on.
Do this until you’ve won and you will be back to even and only have
to bet the initial $5.

Card Counting
Card counting is a simple mathematical way to determine when the
deck will be richer in high cards. When the deck has more high cards
such as Aces and Tens the odds go into the players favor.
To do this you assign groups of cards a number.
2’s - 6’s count as -1
7s - 9’s count as 0
Tens through Aces count as +1
Example:
You are dealt an Ace and a 2. The Ace counts as +1 and the 2 is -1.
Your count is now 0. The dealer is dealt a 5 and a 4, which both count
as -1. You take your count from your cards and the count form the
dealers and you now have -2.
This process is continued for ever card dealt on every hand. You
don’t just keep a count for one hand then start over.
Once the count is around -5 or higher and you have played over 15
hands, you can begin to bet larger. This is because the deck is nor
richer in high cards and the chances of you winning or greater.
You take advantage of this by betting larger with the possibility to
win much more.
