Education is the key to success in the casinos. The more you know the better your chances of making your dreams come true. Here we have laid out the foundation for you to start your learning.

Play:

Every game in the casino entices players with promises of riches beyond the imagination, but most of these games the chances of getting those riches are so astronomically against you it is better to avoid the ones that deal with luck. Games like slot machines, keno and even craps, which has the best odds for the player in the entire casino is all about luck. Stick to games of skill such as poker, blackjack, you do have to deal with the luck of the draw but after that it is all about the skill and experience required to win especially if you are trying to win big.

Education:

Trying to learn several games at the same time just makes it all that much longer before you become proficient at any of the games you are trying to learn. This is because you will be splitting your practice time between several games instead of putting all your efforts into one game. Figure out which game you enjoy the most and start with that one. So if you enjoy playing Texas Holdem then make that your game and dedicate all your free time to improving your game and your understanding of the game.

Skill:

If you project the attitude of a winner people will look at you as a winner, and at the poker table this can be a big advantage. If people see you are confident they may fall for a bluff more easily and they may play more conservatively against you. This will give an experienced player all the edge he needs to come out on top.

Clothing:

How you dress can earn you some respect or lose you some respect. Dressing in a suite is not necessary, but by dressing neat and clean people will give you more respect then someone sitting at the $20 table, wearing a shirt with Spencer patches, sunglasses and a hat pulled down over their eyes just looks like a fool and makes everyone laugh at you. If this is part of your strategy then ok but if you think it will make people fear your skill let me tell you know it will not work.

Money:

As the old saying goes it takes money to make money, and if you want to take home a chunk of the casinos money you are going to have to be realistic. You are not going to win a fortune playing blackjack for 20 dollars a hand. You will need to play big to win big. You should be betting the casino max, which is usually around $1,000 a hand. You are going to need a substantial bank roll, but that does not mean that you should throw money at every single hand, if you are not getting any good hand you can always change tables, and many casinos will allow you to request a new dealer.

Players:

In a game like Blackjack where the other player's mistakes can make the difference between you winning and you losing money in the casino, you need to make sure to pick a table with experienced players. In blackjack you do not need to worry about playing with better players because you are all only playing against the dealer.

This little bit of knowledge and some common sense can help make the difference between taking home the casinos money and leaving your money with the casino. So make sure to stop think and study before attempting to go for it, and always remember once you are up do not get greedy when things start to go against you take your winnings and walk away 9 times out of 10 this is how you will lose you winnings.
