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

Mastering this slang ensures you know exactly what is happening during fast-paced games.

Common Financial Terms in the Casino

Your 'bankroll' is your gaming budget, and protecting it should be your top priority.

Conversely, a 'grinder' is a player who makes small bets over a long period to slowly build a profit.

• 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

Game-Specific Terminology

At the blackjack table, a 'hard hand' is any hand that does not contain an Ace acting as an 11.

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

While it seems overwhelming at first, you will pick up this vocabulary very quickly once you start playing.
