A casino is an establishment for any kind of gambling, usually involving the use of cards, dice, or any other game of chance. Casinos can be built near or mixed in with other hotels, restaurants, shops, cruise ships, or other tourist destinations. Some casinos are also well-known for hosting live entertainment, including live music, stand-up comedy, performances, or sports. Live entertainment is a great way to spend time at a casino, especially if you enjoy comedy.

All US casinos have minimum gambling ages. These requirements usually differ from state to state, but the majority of them start at twenty-one years old. If you are a minor in your country of residence, however, you may still be an “underage gambler” on some US casino property. You should know the exact rules about being a underage gambler in the casino you plan to visit. Casinos in many countries try very hard not to let underage customers gamble at their properties, but in some instances it is simply not possible for US casinos to forbid underage gambling because of the high profitability of these games.
