Ok, not it’s a gamble, but it’s you who gambles. Do you know the expression ‘the house always wins’? It’s because in casinos, it does. Does that mean you can’t get rich in a casino? No, in fact, you can. But the odds are stacked against you. And in the end, as there’s no limit to the amount of games played in the casino, the casino always wins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How does this work? Easy, first off, you need to remember that a chance percentage is a reflection of the moment. So, what’s the chance of throwing the dice 3 times six? Simple, it’s 1\/6*1\/6*1\/6= 0,0046 or 0.4 percent. However, if I managed to throw one die a six already, my chances grow exponentially to 1\/6*1\/6= 0,027 or a whopping 2,7%. But for the casino, there’s no limit. So, as long as the chance of winning stays under 50%, the house always wins. And still you can as well. You just need to stop in time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will it make you a millionaire? That depends on the amount you started with. Take roulette. Working with the one-zero table (american casinos often have two zeros, lowering your chances to one in 38), the chances of winning are 1 in 37. Yes, that’s right. and the winnings are 36 times the bet. So, to win a million, you either have to bet with \u20ac27.777,77, or 3 times leaving your winnings starting with a little over \u20ac21,- (a chance of 0,000197%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Obviously, in other games, the chances are different, but the best you’ll ever get is 49,5% chance of a win. And obviously, the win is dependend on the bet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

All in all, gambling is not a surefire way to become a millionaire. The other way ’round is far more likely. On the other hand, if you’re in an area where it’s allowed and the taxes are not too extreme on gambling, opening a casino sure can make you one. But that’s hard work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
