Are You Smarter Than The Average Casino Player?

Are You Smarter Than The Average Casino Player?  - This should be a game show.

We can see it now: a Carrot Top-hosted game show in Vegas where some Joe Six-pack - who thinks he’s gambling god - goes up against some 73-year-old grandma who visits Vegas once a year to stretch her legs and play some slots. The gamer who can pull in the most cash by the end of their vacation is the winner.

If Joe is as savvy as he thinks he is he’ll probably smoke the old lady. But if has any of the tendencies we point out below, he’ll likely end up begging her for a complimentary breakfast voucher.

Try and see if you have any of these bad habits:

Below Average Players Are All or Nothing
Everything in life takes work… unfortunately. Below average players still haven’t grasped this concept, and therefore they throw their money away like a rapper at a strip club.

Seasoned players know the only way to leave a casino up is to bet consistently and intelligently. That means they know it’ll take time and patience to leave with a sizable bankroll. They never try to get rid of their debt on one fluky hand and they never throw their Christmas money on their lucky number in roulette.

Below Average Players Are Impatient With Casino Strategy
The dumb players always do this. Whether you give them a working strategy or they find one themselves, eventually their impatience forces them to abandon the plan or up the ante. And that’s usually when money abandons their pockets.

There are optimal strategies for many casino games that consistently make money, but greed usually takes over the below average gamer and stupid bets follow. Don’t be the guy that takes stupid chances because he’s already doubled his money. Stay patient, stick to the wager amount you started with and you’ll leave the casino up more than you think.

Below Average Players Are Random Players
You’ve seen this guy walking around the casino: He sticks quarters into random slot machines, plays blackjack for five minutes, plays Caribbean Stud Poker for two then leaves the casino wondering where his money went. He went broke because random players make random money.

Players that find a game they like or, more importantly, they can win at are the ones that’ll make some coin. Although it’s fun to play around and try new games, if you’re in the money-making casino business it’s best to find out which game you’ll be most successful at stick with it until your wallet is satisfied.
