Casino Canada - Probability for Games of Chance for American Scholarship

Gambling can be an exciting leisure activity when done responsibly. Our motivation for creating this website wasn’t just to help our readers enjoy their gambling experience, but to do so in a responsible manner as to improve their chances of winning.

We constantly strive to inform our players on the lessons of gambling and in doing so, impress upon them the fact that there are algorithms and probabilities that can be applied to gambling, and that “luck” is not the only factor which goes into winning and losing.

We also believe in the importance of education in a broader sense, not just in terms of gambling. A good education can change a life for the better in many ways, not least by providing opportunities that would otherwise be out unattainable. We feel, as a successful U.S. company, that we have a responsibility to contribute in some small way to the education of young Americans.

This is why we operate our $1,000 annual scholarship for those studying Statistics, Physics, Accounting, Chemistry, Computer Science, Actuarial Science, Applied Mathematics, Theoretical Abstract Mathematics and Engineering.
