5.26% may seem high, but at the rate which bets are made, $2 a minute or longer on a busy table vs 2% at $60 a minute for slots (simple example) roulette is actually cheap fun using the expected loss per hours played.

Roulette takes, No Brains as all bets are the same. Video Poker, 21 and many others actually take skill and thinking. Playing well, takes practice and learning, while playing roulette well, means never making the five number bet. lol

Craps is probably the best game in the casino for low house percentage and ease to learn. Honestly, where else can you place a bet, with zero house advantage? It just looks complicated because of all that crap on the table (I suppose that's why they call it craps?)

Mini baccarat is good, once again, low wagers, low house percentage, low expected loss.

So I look as roulette as the cheapest way to have fun at the casino, with the least investment, and a no brainer. Fits me well! (not to ignore those cheap 50c chips that I can add to the collection)

If the tribes have any sense they will go for $1.00 Min. like AC. Just can't wait for the first chip run. If I come home with three chips, that will be a big grab for me.
