Yes, It's true - We LOVE teaching players these casino games we love so much. It's so much easier giving classes on just how the games work when you can give your students "Hands-On Experience" at casino-quality tables with phony, valueless chips. They get the real "feel" of the game's play and speed, without feeling the "pinch" of losing their hard-earned cash. "Win-Win."
However - Once we started the Aces Casino Blog, we discovered one interesting factoid: Our faithful Blog-readers normally can't attend our Orange County casino party happenings here in SoCal. Solution? Why, It's the Aces Casino Blog's own "Mid-Term College of Casino Game Knowledge," of course! Last year we published our blog's Mid-Term on Blackjack in true/false form (the link can be found here), and THIS year, It's Roulette's turn.
OK, here's the only hint we'll give you.
OK, students. Sharpen those #2 pencils, and open the Roulette test booklet. Inside, you'll find ten questions concerning the fun, yet frustrating game of Roulette. Each question will have three possible answers - Mark your paper from 1-to-10, and answer each question with an "A," a "B," or "C." We'll give the quiz today, and the answers next Friday, one week from today, in this same Aces Casino Orange County casino party blog. Ready? Begin.
