In roulette, for example, betting chips have microcircuitry that allows them to be monitored minute by minute, and to detect any anomaly; the results of dice rolls are recorded electronically; and in card games such as poker, computer systems regularly oversee the hands played.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the use of cameras throughout the casino ensures the integrity of the game.

The security measures are necessary because of the large amounts of money handled within a casino, and the temptation for patrons and staff to cheat, either in collusion or independently.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A casino (or csino or casin) is a place where people gamble by playing games of chance or skill.
