Casino Confidential: Things you should never do!
Casino games are full of judgment calls with what plays you should make. Should a blackjack player hit hard 16? Yes, if the dealer’s face up card is 7 or higher, but not if it’s 6 or lower. Should a Three Card Poker player match the ante with a play bet? Yes, if the hand is Queen-6-4 or better, but not with lesser cards. But there are absolutes, too. And many of those absolutes are absolutely not’s.
Here are a few things you should NEVER do in a casino….

Football Bets to Top $90 Billion For Second Straight Season – $88 Billion Illegally
Washington, DCÂ â?? Ahead of the Denver Broncos and Carolina Panthers kicking off the 2016 NFL season, the American Gaming Association (AGA) is estimating that fans across the country will bet $90 billion on NFL and college football games this season. However, $88 billion â?? or 98 percent â?? of all bets will be made illegally thanks to a federal government ban.
Illegal betting reached $4.1 billion on Super Bowl 50 earlier this year. In 2015, fans bet at least $150 billion on all sports. In a sign of how serious the problem of illegal gambling has become, more than 30 law enforcement leaders from across the country gathered in June for the first-ever Law Enforcement Summit in Washington, D.C. to better understand the massive illegal sports betting market in the U.S and what steps can be taken to address it.
