Comments
Comparing
both
tables,
a
clear
trend
can
be
seen.
Slots
and
keno
are
not
the
games
you
want
to
play
if
you
have
any
aspirations
of
beating
the
casinos
in
the
long
term.
Game
requiring
a
degree
of
player
skill,
such
as
blackjack
and
video
poker,
are
much
better
bets.
Hope
this
is
helpful,
and
Good
luck
in
the
future.
