It's not hard to understand that the house has the edge over you.

But that doesn't mean you are going to get beaten all the time, or that you are at a big disadvantage.

In point of fact, the edge is usually small. But it works on the basis of volume. Casinos - just like the one at <a href="http://betanysports.eu/btb50/"><strong>BetAnySports</strong> </a>- have thousands and thousands of customers, so it is that which, in effect, creates the "long run" situation for them, in a way that goes far beyond what you would do as an individual.

That's not to say you're going to get away with beating the game, though.

Players are always operating on the basis of short runs - a series of them, in fact - and in any individual situation, you are working with a small sampling, which is enough to come out ahead if you play well, don't squander your funds, and are the beneficiary of a little luck.

Of course, if you play enough of those short run sessions, you are eventually going to succumb to the house edge. And let's face it; because of the level of volume casinos are operating on, they don't really care if you win on any given day.

So by all means, don't take it personally, one way or the other.

Obviously your best shot is to try to get out ahead and then escape when you play, but (and we kind of chuckle when we say this), that is easier said than done.

Naturally a casino has a lot of staying power, which proves something even the absolute novice will tell you - "the house always wins in the end."

It might stand to reason that the longer you play a game that has a negative expectation, the more you will lose. The house is always going to exist, and is always there to take your bet. And there's nothing wrong with that; it is the rule of the road. And when we address you, it is with the understanding that YOU have an understanding of the likelihood that you are going to be in the red.

But you aren't playing these games, for the most part, with the expectation of making a profit. If you are looking at the experience realistically, you are playing them for the entertainment value and for the pleasure you would get if you DO win.

So let's come to another understanding - that if we give you advice about many of these casino games, it is not with the objective of achieving a long-term edge. Instead, it is with the intention of giving you the best chance of winning some of those short-term sessions.

Needless to say, there are requirements. If it is a game where a strategy can be employed, you'll have to know the best one to put into play. And you should certainly be wagering in proportion to your bankroll.

These are principles that demand a lot more attention, and you can count on them being dealt with. We'll enjoy detailing them to you, so keep an eye out for it.

<p>The NCAA tournament continues with first-round games on Friday, March 17, and here you can take a look at the best Rams vs. Gaels betting pick and odds.</p>



<p>VCU will meet St. Mary’s at MVP Arena in Albany, NY, in the first round of the NCAA tournament. The Gaels are 4-point favorites on <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/bookmaker/">BookMaker Sportsbook</a>, while the total is set at 122 points. These non-conference rivals will face for the first time since 2017. The winner of this game will face UConn or Iona in the next round.</p>



<p><strong>Rams beat Dayton to win the Atlantic 10 title</strong></p>



<p>The No 12. VCU Rams (27-7, 17-15-2 ATS) concluded the regular season with six consecutive wins and then defeated Davidson, St. Louis, and Dayton to win the Atlantic 10 title. It was the Rams’ first Atlantic 10 tournament title since 2015 and it was a fully deserved one as they limited the Dayton Flyers to 20 points in the second half to celebrate a 68-56 victory. VCU kept Dayton to 32.1% from the field and made eight three-pointers opposite the Flyers' three, while the Rams were also better in assists (17-11).</p>



<p>Junior guard Adrian Baldwin Jr. led the Rams with 16 points and game-high seven assists. Jalen DeLoach posted a double-double of 13 points and team-high ten rebounds along with two blocks, while Jamir Watkins chipped in 13 points and eight boards off the bench.</p>



<p><strong>Gaels were destroyed by Gonzaga in the WCC final</strong></p>



<p>The No. 5 St. Mary’s Gaels (26-7, 17-13-2 ATS) shared a regular-season title with the Gonzaga Bulldogs and beat the BYU Cougars in the WCC tournament semifinal, but the Zags dismantled them in the final. The Gaels scored just 19 first-half points and were miserable from the floor (33.3%) in a massive 77-51 defeat to Gonzaga. St. Mary’s made four triples opposite the Bulldogs’ eight, while Gonzaga was better in assists (17-8).</p>



<p>Senior guard Logan Johnson led the Gaels with a game-high 20 points, four rebounds, and two steals. Alex Ducas added ten points and team-high seven boards, but the rest of the players finished the game in single digits. St. Mary’s bench contributed only seven points, all seven scored by Josh Jefferson, while Gonzaga’s scored 28.</p>



<p><strong>Trends:</strong></p>



<p><strong>VCU</strong>:</p>



<p>N/A</p>



<p><strong>St. Mary’s:</strong></p>



<ul>
<li>12-1 ATS in the last 13 games following a straight-up loss</li>



<li>16-4-1 ATS in the last 21 games following an ATS loss</li>



<li>6-1 ATS in the last seven games following a double-digit loss at home</li>



<li>4-1 ATS in the last five neutral site games</li>
</ul>



<p><strong>VCU Rams vs. St. Mary’s Gaels Pick</strong></p>



<p>Interestingly, both teams have identical offenses when it comes to points per game this season as both average 71.4 ppg. St. Mary’s defense has been a bit stronger; the Gaels allow 60.1 points per contest, which is the fifth-best D in college basketball, while the Rams also have a solid defense as they concede 62.9 ppg. I am giving a slight advantage to the Gaels because of that rock-solid defense, and also because they are coming from a stronger and more competitive conference. Logan Johnson, Aidan Mahaney, and Alex Ducas will lead their team to the second round. Mahaney shot just 2-8 from the floor and scored seven against Gonzaga, so I expect him to bounce back here.</p>



<p><strong>Pick:</strong> Take the Gaels at -2.5 (-133)</p>



<p><strong>The Total</strong></p>



<p>The reason for such a low total offered by the bookies is clear – both defenses have been fantastic this season. However, this is a chance for the Over bettors, such as myself, to take it and make some profit. St. Mary’s allowed 69+ points in the last three games, and even though two of them were against Gonzaga, I think VCU can score at least 60 here. The Gaels scored 62+ in each of their previous ten games. Over is 6-1 in the Rams’ last seven NCAA Tournament games; Over is 4-1 in the Gaels’ previous five games following an ATS loss, while Over is 8-3 in St. Mary’s last 11 neutral site games.</p>



<p><strong>Pick:</strong> Go Over 120.5 points (-133)</p>
