Betting and casino games are all forms of gambling that most people from diverse regions of the globe partake in. While gambling is a leisure activity, it feels good when you play it and also get to win at times. Unfortunately, gambling is usually wired in a way that the gambling service providers are the ones that usually end up gaining. So, could there be strategies that players can craft to help them win against the service providers?

Well, in this article we take you through some 10 most known gambling and casino strategies in North America:

1. Always consider your bankroll

It is best to always be considerate of your budget before you decide to engage in any gambling activity. As good rule, always set a fixed budget for your gambling session and stick by the budget whether you win or lose. Trying to chase your losses will only lead to making massive losses too expensive to afford.

2. Consider playing the free games

Another tip you can follow is to go for the free games that are most commonly offered by the online bookmarkers. Try doing this just before you decide to put in your real hard earned money. Always, practice makes perfect and by playing free games you will soon master the art of the game. Once you get acquainted with the slots games or any other gambling games, then you can begin placing small wagers to try your luck.

3. Never gamble under the influence

Gambling under the influence of intoxicating substances is the worst mistake you can make. Drugs impair your ability to make rational decisions that would otherwise help you decide when to stop chasing losses. This strategy advises you to steer clear of betting when you are drunk from alcohol or merry after taking other drugs. In fact you can only be able to win serious bets when you are sober and understand what you doing.

4. Opt for games with the best odds

Odds are usually designed in a way that they give the casino an edge. This is why it is best to look for table games or the slots machines that feature the best odds. There are claims made by players that table games usually have better odds than the slots, however doing some more research is even much better.

5. Learn the gamble laws of North America

North America is a huge continent with big countries such as the USA, Canada and Mexico among others. Each jurisdiction has its own set of laws that govern the gambling activities within it. In Canada for instance, each state usually has its own set of gaming laws that as a gambler you will need to acquaint yourself with.

6. Always go for promotions and bonuses

Some casinos offer monthly promotions or bonuses to their clients based on their criteria of offerings. You can always take advantage of such promotion or bonus offerings to win big and also benefit as you enjoy fun. To enjoy this strategy you have to shop around for casinos that are offering bonuses or promotions.

7. The Parley strategy

This strategy works on the fashion in which it encourages you to increase your bets when you are winning. Parley is a progressive betting strategy where you move on to the next action based on the result you get from your initial wager. This strategy comes in handy for players who have previously made losses trying to chase lost wagers. Play it if you wish to avoid making huge losses from gambling.

8. The Pivot strategy

This strategy works best for the roulette games and is also a progressive betting strategy aimed at reducing losses. As with many other types of progressive betting strategies, the pivot strategy aims at cutting losses and reducing the level of risk that’s taken when your winning increases. It can also be used in other casino games like baccarat or blackjack.

9. Flat betting

This strategy is commonly used when playing roulette and blackjack games of casino. This strategy is best used by beginner gamblers as it helps them study things out first before they slowly venture into serious gambling. With this trick, you stick to a flat rate regardless of winning or losing a bet. A case of example in this strategy is continuously wagering $6 whether you win or lose.

10. The Martingale strategy

In this betting strategy, the player is required to double their bet or wager after a loss. The reasoning behind this strategy is that there is a chance that you could win and recover your loss. It sounds awkward but should you be able to win after a doubling your bet, you smile all the way after making a recovery.

The Michigan Lottery announced that it will transition to the National Problem Gambling Helpline, 1-800-GAMBLER for responsible gaming support. This aligns the agency with the Michigan Gaming Control Board and other online gaming platforms operating in Michigan in promoting 1-800-GAMBLER. The 1-800-GAMBLER helpline will replace the Michigan Problem Gambling Helpline currently in circulation (1-800-270-7117), although the previous number will remain in operation.

“The Lottery is committed to providing Michiganders with easy access to resources that support responsible gaming. By transitioning to 1-800-GAMBLER, we are able to ensure that Michigan residents can reach specially trained staff who can provide confidential professional support, local referrals, and resources to those who may have a gambling problem,” said Lottery Commissioner Suzanna Shkreli.

Operated by the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG), 1-800-GAMBLER is the world’s largest problem gambling helpline network by call volume, population served, and geographic area covered. The helpline connects people and families impacted by problem gambling with professional support, local referrals, and resources.

Calls made to 1-800-GAMBLER from Michigan will be routed to the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services. The helpline can also be reached by texting 800GAM or chatting online at 1800gamblerchat.org. Trained contact center staff are available 24/7, 365 days a year to provide support, guidance, and relevant information to anyone seeking help related to problem gambling. Additionally, players or their family members may connect to support resources such as live chat, text, and the helpline number by selecting the links in the footer of the Lottery’s website.

The Michigan Lottery was the first lottery in the US to achieve the Internet Responsible Gambling Compliance Assessment Program certification through NCPG in October 2015. The NCPG evaluated the Lottery’s compliance with Internet Responsible Gaming (IRG) standards developed based on best practices from jurisdictions around the world. IRG standards are the highest standards for online responsible gaming in the nation.
