The Gambling Code

 So far it appears Kadizzle has found a way to beat the casino. Casinos are the best revenge Native Americans ever got on the white man. The idiots are there every day pumping their social security checks into the machines. 

Statistics could favor the player Kadizzle figured out. On Tuesdays the casino will give you twenty dollars to gamble if you spend twenty of your own dollars. The laws of probability can work in your favor. If you bet twenty dollars, and the casino bets twenty dollars for you that means you have a total of forty dollars invested. Slot machines usually payout 90% of what you put in them. That means if $40 went in then $36 dollars should come out on average. The whole trick to this scheme is to resist the temptation to go beyond the $40. Last night Kadizzle did this for about the fourth time and won $13. Kadizzle got up and left. The casino knows your average dolt will not leave, but start to pump their own money into the vacuum cleaner.  Over time the laws of probability say you will win on average $16 dollars. That is not a great sum, but it will buy you dinner at the casino or put some gas in your car. 

One trick to making this work is to cash out every time you win. The Kadizzles learned this from an Indian woman working at a casino near Sante Fe.  One night we could not find a place to park the camper. In desperation we went to the casino. Casinos in the southwest encourage RV people to stay. Most Casinos will give you ten or twenty dollars to gamble the first time you play. Using their money we were able to cash out and stay free for two nights. Do not, repeat do not use your own money or you are doomed.
