Can a blind player participate in a poker tournament? It turned out that he can!

And such a player was Hal Lubarsky, who visited the World Series of Poker in 2007. He even managed to reach the top places and take 197th place, with no vision. He lost sight as a child but didn’t lose his desire to play poker. And he was able to develop his own playing style. He got an assistant, who told him his pocket cards, and cards on the board, and he also trained him to read opponents' faces. Through an intermediary, Lyubarsky managed to understand the cards on hand.  Administration WSOP tried to prevent him from playing by banning the presence of any assistants at the gaming table. Hal listened to the arguments and calmly said that the next day his lawyer would bring the action to the court for discrimination against people with disabilities, and finally, their full prize pool would go to pay compensation for his moral damage and court costs, unless they make exceptions for him.

If you want to be successful in casino games, you should start by avoiding the most popular mistakes that gamblers usually do while playing. With a little knowledge, you can quickly get rid of them and earn much more. The list of mistakes includes: •    The idea that results in games have a consistent pattern. Instead, they are independent of each other: the future flip has nothing to do with the previous rounds. •    A foggy notion of the game and the house edge. Thus, if you choose American roulette, you should not expect the same payouts as in the European version. •    Alcohol abuse during the game . It can impair your judgment and lead to wrong decisions. •    Exceeding the bankroll. We recommend you to set aside a half of your winnings that can guarantee that you leave the table earning at least the money you started the game with.

The question of the house edge in games is essential when you want to earn money in a casino.

According to research, baccarat has the lowest house edge of 0,8 %. If we take into account the simple rules of the game, it is highly recommended for beginners. Craps is appropriate for earning money in a casino as well because the house edge is 1,06 %. Experienced players can try their luck in blackjack and video poker, but these games require skills and the right strategy. Fans of roulette should choose the European version with the house edge of 2,70 % that is much more profitable than the American one. The results in slots are unpredictable and based on the RNGs. The payouts usually range between 85 % and 96 % to gamblers in the long term. If you are looking to receive regular returns on your investments, you should avoid lotteries, keno, and scratch-offs with their infrequent payouts.
