Abstract

The idea of a casino and speculation at its tables is not new. Casino Baden–Baden in Germany has been operating since 1809. It is one of the most exclusive and elegant in all of Europe and features 14 table games, for American roulette, Baccarat, French roulette, and poker. Despite this attraction, most people come to Baden–Baden for its therapeutic mineral springs. Still, no visit would be complete without a visit to the Casino’s tables. Perhaps most famous is the Casino de Monte Carlo, which has been attracting visitors, including royalty, movie stars, and the world’s filthy rich since 1863. It is the top tourist attraction in tiny Monaco. Macao, China is known as “the Monte Carlo of the Orient,” in part because of the Venetian Macao, which has over 800 table games. The Venetian is also the largest hotel in Asia. It’s enough to make Donald Trump envious. There are dozens of casinos in Moscow but the most elegant is the Casino Metropol, located just a few minutes from Red Square and the Kremlin.
