You bounce over to the craps table throw out a bet on the six and (bingo!) the six rolls right away. You strut by the roulette table, throw a bet on James Bond’s number 17 and (of course) it hits, paying you 35 to one. You are hotter than something that is hotter than hot. You might be guilty of one or two of them or you might be guilty of (horrors!) all of them. So just in case you are occasionally making mistakes in your casino play I am now going to give you the 8 major mistakes casino players make and the ones you should obviously avoid. The casinos can be a world of mistakes because casino gambling opens up the lid on the “let-me-do-this-dumb-thing” jar of the “I did what?” reflection. If I recall correctly I made one in 1968.
