Paying attention to certain statistics within the casino can subtly shift the house edge in your favor, says Colm Phelan, brand ,anager for The first would be keeping a close eye on slot machine volatilities, he says. Also known as variance, this tells you how often the machine is likely to pay out. 'Low volatility slots offer smaller, more frequent wins, while high volatility machines pay out larger prizes but less often,' Phelan says. 'It all depends on an individual person's preference and whether they perceive being lucky as the chance of a bigger payday or recouping as much of their wager as possible.' Finding this intel can be tricky to tricky at land-based casinos, but online slots typically disclose volatility upfront. If you're reducing the house edge purely from a numbers standpoint, avoid triple-zero roulette if a double-zero table is available, Phelan says. Similarly, always opt for 3:2 blackjack payouts over 6:5. The odds are simply better. One more thing: Many casino patrons subscribe to a long-standing superstition that $50 bills are unlucky. (In fact, some have instructed tellers never to include $50s in change). This could be because the $50 bill features President Ulysses S. Grant, who famously went bankrupt before his death, Phelan points out. In terms of casino layouts, there is a superstition that slot machines that are placed at the end of a row, in a prominent position or close to a main doorway are more likely to pay out big jackpots than those hidden in quieter spots, Phelan says. 'This is because casinos want to show off big winners to encourage others to play,' he says. 'Machines tucked away in quiet corners might not get the same love.'
