What matters more than the air is whether anybody's actually checking the wheel. If a place lets the same ball stay in too long, or the frets get nicked up, you'll get a section showing up more than it should and people call it luck because that's easier. On our floor years back they pulled a roulette wheel after 3 numbers out of one 9-pocket arc landed 17 times in 212 spins, not magic, the bowl was slightly off level. Humidity maybe a LITTLE, sure, but maintenance is the boring answer and usually the right one. American roulette hides a lot of junk too just from extra house edge, people don't track enough to see it

Low-limit blackjack with mostly locals is your best shot. House rules matter less than crowd type. Pontoon tables can get chatty, weirdly.

I started a spreadsheet once, thinking I’d spot some rhythm to which sites glitch out or slow KYC under pressure, but there’s no real pattern. With crypto spots it’s even more opaque - backend tech feels like duct tape holding the place together half the time. Planning around “auto” processing is about as reliable as chasing a hot streak on a cold machine. If one actually did smooth off-hours payouts, I haven’t found it.

One thing I rarely see talked about is bankroll size and discipline. I’ve watched players on GamblingForum ride a good week, then up their stakes way too fast and blow it all chasing a rush. Slow, steady bets outlast talent when variance punches you.

Honestly, what bugs me more than tip pooling is how some sites shuffle everything into vague bonus credits for dealers, instead of cold cash. Spent years on the floor and even back then, the best part of the shift was a straight-up tip, not some token cut spread across a crowd. Unless the casino publishes actual numbers, I just go with small tips on sessions where the dealer brings energy. If it turns out the site buries it in a pool, so be it. Online, the personal gesture gets lost, but for sportsbook sites with transparent cashouts, you at least know the dollars are real somewhere.

Had a stint promoting for one of the no-name crypto sites and the pressure to chase player losses was real. Only time I felt right about it was when I stuck to Betonline since it actually pays out and doesn’t hide the rulebook. The rest? Just not worth the headache. I’d rather get slow clicks on a legit review than fast cash steering folks somewhere I wouldn’t risk twenty bucks myself.

Slots get jammed now and then but it’s nowhere near as flaky as the smaller sportsbook side lately, payouts actually land if you hit on Everygame. Ever had your max bet get randomly slashed mid-session?

Grinding those bonuses chews through more of my balance than a bad session on Wheel of Fortune, so I don’t bother unless I’m testing a new slot’s volatility curve. Ever actually see delayed payouts after finally clearing one?

Don’t forget table size and payout speed matter too, especially with smaller poker rooms dragging withdrawals which pushes out grinders who want fast cash. Ever notice how slow cashouts can tilt the regulars right out the door?
