[00:02] told your friends, "Just a few rounds at 5:00 p.m. when the sun was still out." The next thing you know, it's 8:00 p.m. It's pitch black outside and surprise, you're late for your dinner reservation. What happened? You got what I like to

[00:15] call casinoed. There's a reason time warps inside a casino and no, it's not because you're going crazy, I promise. They designed the entire place to suck you in and keep you glued to that seat. The tricks are subtle and you don't even

[00:29] show you what's really going on behind the scenes, you're never going to unsee it. So today we're exposing and breaking down the casino's dirty tricks. >> Welcome to Ninja Gamblers, where we break down the smartest strategies for

[01:09] dentist's office, for instance, are going to keep you aware of the time and thus thinking about all the other things you have to do except for gambling. but when you're having a good time, you're not really thinking about that.

[01:23] And without a giant clock reminding you, time just slips away. The second casino might not have noticed before, but once you hear it, the lightbulb goes on, or should I say the windows open. Why? Because casinos don't have any.

[01:38] When casinos block natural light from entering the floor, the reason is similar to the no clock policy. If you can't see the daylight, then you can't keep track of time. If you can't keep track of time, then you're going to sink

[01:50] deeper into the game and play for longer. It's simple and effective. Now for the third trick, think about the last time you tried to find the washroom in a casino. You may have gotten turned around. You're passing the craps table,

[02:03] you're passing a row of slots, and then finally you end up at the bar instead. That's not because the blackjack dealer gave you bad directions. That's the maze hoping that you're going to get lost and distracted by another game.

[02:16] they put the milk and the eggs in the back. That way you have to pass all the tempting quick grab stuff first. Now, it's important to be precise here. The tricks that land-based casinos use, the lights, the sounds, the layout, the lack

[02:29] of clocks, they aren't illegal, and they aren't scams. Supermarkets, malls, airports, they do the exact same thing. They're designed to keep your attention, not to rig the outcome of the game. Where you actually need to be vigilant

[02:42] is online. Online casinos don't need lights or psychology tricks. They can do far worse. There are countless offshore sites that actively work against you. Things like rigged games, absurdly low table limits, withdrawals blocked or

[02:55] delayed, and accounts suspended the moment a player starts using strategies or winning consistently. Fully licensed online casinos they cannot do any of this. They're audited, they're RNG tested, and payouts are legally enforced

[03:08] by the licensing authority, and usually the local government, too. That's the keep you playing and one designed to make sure you never get paid. That's why you should only play on verified fully licensed online casinos. We've built a

[03:21] country-by-country list of properly regulated casinos with tested RNG and fast withdrawals. The link is on screen, in the description, and pinned in the first comment. Similar to the maze effect is trick number four. Have you

[03:33] ever wondered what kind of eccentric designer thought those bizarre carpets would be a good idea? Well, that wasn't just an overzealous intern. Those wacky navigate inside the casino. Plus, and

[03:46] this is no joke, they're ugly on purpose so that you avert your eyes back to the of a land casino, there's a good chance you hear it before you even picture it. That non-stop chiming of slot machines, that constant noise, is that classic

[04:00] casino soundtrack, and it's there by design. That's trick number five. Those feel like people are winning big all around you. In reality, someone might have just won 10 cents and the machine reacts like they hit the jackpot. But,

[04:13] tables, they don't know that. All they hear is wins, wins, wins. And subconsciously, that message sinks in. If everyone else is winning, maybe you can win big, too. That's the entire point. It's the exact same trick used at

[04:26] fun fairs, at those games where you try to win a giant teddy bear. You ever notice how they ring a loud bell or they make a huge show when somebody wins? It's the same psychology. Amplify small wins, make them feel massive, and let

[04:39] number six is something that we all love to see. Even uttering the word sends a rush of dopamine to the brain. That word is, wait for it, free. resist free stuff. Just like the free ninja community, intent. For real

[04:55] though, join it now. You're not going to regret it. You'll receive daily tips, plus you're going to get all the charts we use, all for free. Anyways, free stuff is why the drinks

[05:07] playing a lot, and in most places the parking is, too. And once you're getting freebies, you loosen up with your money. You hit your betting limit and you might say, "Well, I didn't pay for these three gin and tonics, so I can toss in another

[05:20] 30." And that's how they get you. Now, the last trick that we're covering today is a deeply sinister one. This is a strange method that has been passed around from player to player. It's been whispered in dark back alleys as the

[05:32] most effective way casinos manipulate you into staying. And the trick is a The myth that somehow still persists is that casinos pump oxygen into the air to keep players awake and alert. And it sounds juicy, but it's not true in the

[05:46] slightest. To actually pump enough oxygen into the floor to make a difference, the casino would require 40,000 cubic meters of oxygen per day, which would equate to approximately $30,000 daily. Now, if they thought it

[06:00] was a worthy investment, the fire hazard would be catastrophic. Oxygen is highly flammable. One person lights a cigarette, boom, there's no more casino to worry about. What casinos actually do to keep patrons awake, however, is keep

[06:12] nothing to write home about. I mean, I do the same thing when I drive at night to stay awake. And anyways, I think you'd rather play craps next to people who are sweating less. It's a much more pleasant experience for everyone. So,

[06:25] encourage you to stick around and play. Although pumping oxygen is a very expensive myth, casinos will hide the clocks, the windows, create a maze, and outfit the decor with hideous, confusing carpets. But, now that you know the

[06:38] tactics, you can spot them, stay aware, and stay in control of your game. What already notice them in your own casino experience? Let us know down in the comments, and we'll try to reply to everyone. When playing at a casino, both
