Here's one: there are no clocks in casinos. Casinos will use any non-overt tactic to keep you at the tables and it's too easy for you to keep a schedule for other things if you know what time it is. Yes, you might wear a watch or use your phone, but the casinos aren't going to give you any help.
Here's another. Casinos have long been known to use air fresheners to keep gamblers in the casino. Not that they're going for some form of overt mind control, but certain aromas can affect peoples moods, and a strategic injection into the ventilation system can subtly help people stay in a positive mood.
lol, I know right? What's with them calling out Fred Smith's name like it's something we can't believe anyone would be named. That's like saying Robert Jones is an unusual name. or Jeffrey Williams. doesn't make sense
Gambling is such a underrated addiction, the potential harm cause by gambling exceeds that of many main stream addictions such as drugs,alcohol and tobacco IMO. There's less support and understanding for addicted gamblers than the others. Gambling is evil!
I work in an arcade and I have to agree there isn't enough support for people with a current addiction or someone who is starting to show signs of one.
I worked with slot machines at a casino in Canada for a couple years. To the point on spinning a dollar and "winning" 25 cents, it's in the wording. Casinos say 97% payout rate on the slots. That's because of those times you spun a dollar and "won" 25 cents that 25 cents counts as a payout towards that 97%. They don't mention the 75 cents you lose when talking 97%.
What type of mic would you guys recommend for narrations like this? I recently started my channel and would love some criticism :) are pop filters necessary?
poker is a mixture of skill and luck. i donate often to the poker community as i like skill in the game. however sometimes i get lucky and win a pot or two 😉
Monaco isn't the only place where citizens can't gamble in their own casinos. I'm sure either Singapore, Hong Kong or Macau is the same but might be wrong.
best way to gamble. go into a casino expecting to lose all of the money you are willing to spend. if you win a good hand, cash out and play with the winnings
Fact number 6, learn how to play craps and stick to that table, it has the best odds of any table game, sometimes even approaching even with the house. Also, always check the rules for every casino you go to, many have special bets and/or special rules that can get really confusing if you don't look them up beforehand. Source: I work at a casino.

Hears the first fact ......gambling will ruin it your life if you win or lose if you lose you lose all your money and if you win you take that money you won and spend it on gambling
National security? I don't know, but just last weekend 2 naval officers were sitting on my blackjack table and end up fighting with another guy over a hand, they got kicked out and were very pissed off, I guess the morale was down there.
No Pachinko in this video. it's still gambling, only with tiny metal balls instead. ran into countless pachinko places on my holiday in japan this year.
***** The most accepted definition of gambling is playing a game of chance with the risk of losing money. So basically gambling is any game of chance. Poker is a game of skill. In fact it has been recently recognized as a game of skill. Yes there is a luck factor, but the better the player the more that player wins. I have been playing poker for a living for the past 2 years. If poker was gambling I would have to be the luckiest motherfucker in history to win almost every day and make a living. Poker is a game of skill. Like chess.
Is Fred Smith an odd name? Why did they call it out? I don't understand it. If you're an infantryman coming back from active, it makes FREAKING SENSE to gamble. Why is this somehow remarkable? You're young, have money, and are used to being a target. You could be dead tomorrow. Gamble, get some girls, live it up. Not rocket science. National security risk? Whatever.
Casinos and Gambling are honestly ....boring and might explain why I see so many old people there. From a guy that likes playing warframe (Space ninjas)
The reason our minds think near wins are a good thing is because in most situations in the past they were. If you were a cave man, and your spear almost hit a fish. Our mind would say good job keep at it and you will get it next time.(yes minds can speak lol) Sadly this doesn't work with games of random chance.
Meh gambling to me is just for fun. I take an amount I'm willing to lose and once it's gone I leave. Might even get lucky and win more than I came in with XD
+twitchster77 Well, as bad as any gambling addiction is, slot machines are at least the lesser evil. The house edge in slots is small (usually between 1% and 4%), and coin plays means he won't be betting the house anytime soon. Be glad he isn't addicted to Blackjack, Craps, or Roulette.
+Captain Obvious that's just d not true. slots are one of the biggest scams. they usually have a much higher edge than any casino table game. look it up
+Captain Obvious that may be what they want you to believe. or that may be true for the higher cost machines. there are plenty of slots that payout as little as 70%. that's a 30% edge for the house... check sources, casinos are very reluctant to disclose these stats.

on casinos: no windows, no clock, free alcool... as a brain trick, and players are losing control when gambling...
Here's another. Casinos have long been known to use air fresheners to keep gamblers in the casino. Not that they're going for some form of overt mind control, but certain aromas can affect peoples moods, and a strategic injection into the ventilation system can subtly help people stay in a positive mood.

Well I like playing cards, so you can go sit in your house and look down on people for not being perfect.
I work in an arcade and I have to agree there isn't enough support for people with a current addiction or someone who is starting to show signs of one.
anybody else thought they were going to talk about how everything is set up to make you lose ?

+twitchster77 Well, as bad as any gambling addiction is, slot machines are at least the lesser evil. The house edge in slots is small (usually between 1% and 4%), and coin plays means he won't be betting the house anytime soon. Be glad he isn't addicted to Blackjack, Craps, or Roulette.
+Captain Obvious that's just d not true. slots are one of the biggest scams. they usually have a much higher edge than any casino table game. look it up
+Captain Obvious there's also high roller slots where the minimum bet is 100dollars. plenty of people have ruined their lives at slots

I have looked it up. That's how I know that the casino edge in slots is between 1% and 4%.
+Captain Obvious that may be what they want you to believe. or that may be true for the higher cost machines. there are plenty of slots that payout as little as 70%. that's a 30% edge for the house...
