Casino sayings have unknowingly become a part of the American Lexicon, for example, examine the term “You bet!” Every time someone uses the term, Larry believes it is a surreptitious advertisement for the American Gaming Association. When someone say’s “I bet he won’t say that to my face” It does not really mean they plan to make a monetary wager. Here are just a few sayings used in Las Vegas and what they really mean.
Crap Out: “Crap” numbers are 2-3 and 12, It really means the dice shooter rolled a seven instead of their winning number or “Point”
Casino Chips: Chips have no value, Gaming Tokens are called “Cheques” they are redeemable.
