We tried to demystify the wide world of gambling, bringing the five mind blowing facts about casinos you haven\u2019t heard about.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Casinos_have_an_Italian_origin\"><\/span><b>Casinos have an Italian origin<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When we think about casinos, the first thing that pops into our mind is either Las Vegas or Monte Carlo, but only a few know that casinos originated in Italy. The name \u201ccasino\u201d originates from the Italian word \u201ccasa\u201d which stands for the house, made to be as a cover for summerhouses and <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social<\/a> clubs. What\u2019s more, organised gambling dates back to 15th century Venice. Seems like we have more things to thank Italians for?<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"One_man_sold_everything_he_has_and_bet_it_on_a_single_roulette_spin\"><\/span><b>One man sold everything he has and bet it on a single roulette spin<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Over a decade ago, on TV screens in the UK was premiered a show called \u201cDouble or nothing\u201d. The concept was clear: an English professional gambler Ashley Revel wanted to sell all of his possessions so he could stake it on the turn of a roulette wheel. After he sold everything and was left only with clothes on his back, Revel staked more than \u00a3130 000 on a wheel in a casino in Las Vegas. Luckily, he managed to win the bet and went out of the casino with a whooping \u00a3270,600.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Playing_the_Devils_game\"><\/span><b>Playing the Devil\u2019s game<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Did you know that roulette was nicknamed the Devil\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>? The reason that earned this game the nickname is even more intriguing. Someone was (obviously) bored enough to add up all the numbers shown on the wheel, with a total of 666 which is the Devil\u2019s number. If you\u2019re prejudiced, this might look like a warning sign, but in truth, the game is not for the faint-hearted! And even though it\u2019s true that this game gives a fair amount of adrenaline, it\u2019s the game where players actually have the biggest chance of winning. For instance, in case you bet on black, you have a 50\/50 chance of winning.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Casinos_are_heavily_prohibited\"><\/span><b>Casinos are heavily prohibited<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We know that some countries ban any type of gambling like Iran, UAE, or Cambodia, but some states in the USA prohibit gambling too. This is the case with New Jersey which had a ban on gambling until recently. Even now, when the ban is lifted, it\u2019s heavily restricted on which games can and cannot be played online and brick and mortar casinos are included.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"_Slot_machines_have_to_pay_at_least_70\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><b>Slot machines have to pay at least 70%<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you play online slot machines, then you must have noticed the \u201cRTP\u201d in<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">script<\/a>ion on the screen. This actually stands for \u201creturn to player\u201d and explains which amount is expected to be paid in relation to player stakes. That\u2019s the minimum that can be expected, however, some online casinos do pay more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>by Mila Bera<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
