Walking into a casino can feel like entering a foreign country where everyone speaks a completely different language.

Learning this terminology will not only make you sound like a pro but also help you avoid costly misunderstandings.

Common Financial Terms in the Casino

A 'bankroll' is the total amount of money you have specifically set aside for your gambling session.

A 'high roller' or 'whale' is a VIP gambler who wagers tens of thousands of dollars per hand.

• A 'marker' is basically an IOU or a line of credit extended by the casino
• 'Action' refers to the total amount of money wagered over a specific period
• 'Vig' or 'Vigorish' is the fee the house takes on certain bets

Slang Used at the Tables and Slots

In Blackjack, 'busting' means your card total has exceeded 21, resulting in an automatic loss.

For slot machines, a 'loose' machine is one that supposedly pays out more frequently than others.

Knowing the lingo adds an extra layer of enjoyment and authenticity to your gambling experience.
