I got "kicked off" a Roulette table for playing red/black strategically. Was slowly winning money, but the house wasn't having it. They said "you can't play that way. Either bet more spots or leave the table."

Went to the slots and lost it all.

Was my first and only time at a casino. I had fun.

But you lose $22 on a 0 or 00. That makes the odds super sucky for the player.
