Casino – More Than Just a Casino

Casino is a movie that delves into the darker side of Las Vegas and how huge gambling corporations took over the desert city. It reveals how organized crime and aristocratic families once controlled Vegas, but then it was taken over by corporate entities that mint money in the billions. The film shows that casinos are as much about the people who play them as they are about the games themselves.

While most people go to a casino to gamble, they also come to socialize and have fun. The clacking of coins and music, the people dancing in the aisles or talking with each other over the tables create a buzz that is hard to beat. Whether they’re winning or losing, everyone has a great time!

People who play in a casino are a diverse group, from the regulars that strut their stuff expecting to win big, to the people who want to make back their losses. They all share one thing though, a love of playing their favorite casino games. Even the jaded people can’t help but smile and feel that sense of excitement that can only be experienced in a casino!

Casinos have a built in edge in all their games, which is often less than two percent. This small advantage, combined with millions of bets by casino patrons, is how the casinos earn their millions. They use this profit to add lavish hotels, fountains, giant pyramids and towers, elaborate art and statues, as well as to fund concerts, stage shows and other attractions.
