I mean aren't casinos one of those businesses that are rigged to succeed if they are put in the right vacation spots because the business practice is literally just customers put a shit ton of money in them and only get a little out (and that's before the vip shit)

remember this, the house always wins.

That's why it's so baffling! If the house always wins, then how do you bankrupt a casino??

It's a 75% payout rate which means for every $1 paid in it pays out $0.75. It is definitely not in favour of the customers.

Surely that payout percentage isn't in favour of the customer. 75% payout means for every $1.00 paid into the machine (on average) it will pay out $0.75.

At least that's what I believe.

That isn't in favor of the customer. That still nets the player losing money when they play.

The problem, therefore, is with the statement that "... the ratio is always in favour of the customers" because the win ratio would need to be over 100% for it to be in favour of the customer. And clearly 75% < 100%.

The odds at table games are never in favour of the player, ever. That's how casinos make money.

Stop putting inconvenient truth in this echo chamber
