Teaching tools — the odds, computed
Twelve games, each with its return computed from the constants the game actually runs on, and an honest account of what the same game would look like in a real casino. Free play throughout: nothing here is redeemable, which is why the whole table can be shown.

Why some comparisons exist and others do not
Roulette and baccarat have edges that follow from the rules, so they are derived here and shown with the arithmetic — Roulette and Baccarat. You can check them.
A slot’s return does not follow from any rule. It is a number the developer chooses, and nothing you can see while playing reveals it. So no estimate is printed. What the law gives you instead is a floor, and the floor depends on the state: Nevada 75% (Gaming Regulation 14), New Jersey 83% (N.J.A.C. 13:69E-1.28A). A real machine must clear its floor and may sit anywhere above it without saying where.
Several games here — Plinko, Mines, Crash, Hi-Lo, Scratch — have no real-world counterpart to compare against at all, and that is said rather than fudged.
