A payout is the amount of money a player receives after winning a bet. Payouts can vary widely depending on the game and the type of bet placed.

A high roller is a player who consistently wagers large amounts of money. Casinos often offer special perks and privileges to high rollers to encourage their business.
Keno is a lottery-style game where players select numbers from a set range, and then numbers are drawn randomly. Players win based on how many of their selected numbers match the drawn numbers.
