The Casino Experience

The world’s best casinos offer more than just a place to gamble. They deliver a complete luxury experience, from historic elegance to modern opulence. They offer a wide variety of games, high-end restaurants and breathtaking art installations. And they are a must-visit for anyone who loves to play.

Gambling has been a part of human culture for millennia. Evidence of dice games has been found in 2300 BC China, and card games first appeared in 800 AD. The casino itself is a more recent development, with the earliest known establishment dating to 1701 in Italy (where it is also spelled cassino). Today’s casinos vary widely in size and design, but most are designed to create a mesmerizing environment that draws players in and keeps them gambling.

Because large amounts of money are handled within a casino, it is tempting for patrons and staff to cheat and steal, either in collusion or independently. To combat this, most casinos have security measures in place to detect and deter such activities. For example, betting chips have built-in microcircuitry that enables them to be monitored minute-by-minute so that any statistical deviation can be quickly detected; roulette wheels are electronically monitored to reveal any anomalies in their behavior. In addition to this, a casino’s security officers are often stationed throughout the building. This helps to prevent a single employee from becoming too mesmerized by the environment to be effective at his or her job.
