survey for young women gamblers in Vegas

[MaxWeiss]

This is cross posted in OOT, but I thought it would get more responses here. I will understand if it is removed form this forum.

This is a survey for a casino management/marketing class. My team is doing “young, female, winning gamblers in Vegas.” Yeah, what of it? (No, I don't have to meet you for it! Just the survey.) Anybody can take the survey, but it would really help if you are a local young Vegas woman. I’ve tailored it a lot to poker and blackjack stuff but feel free to add in anything you want afterwards. I need everything I can get!



Please assume “and why?” or “and why not?” is applied after every question, except the first two. (Yes, this means I want to know why for the 3rd question.)

Age?

Ethnicity?

Religion?

A coin is flipped 3 times and comes up tails for all three. Is heads or tails more likely to appear on the next toss?

Do you like Las Vegas?

How often do you gamble?

Do you win when you gamble?

What is your game of choice?

Have you looked into other games?

Do you keep records of your gambling wins and losses?

What factors have contributed to your looking into more games or not, and what do you believe are the most significant differences between house games (player vs. house) and poker?

If you saw the dealer exposing cards being dealt to other players at a poker table, would you tell?

If you saw the dealer expose his hole card at blackjack, would you tell?

Do you like the casino environment?

Do you like and/or respect the gaming industry?

A coin is flipped 100 times and comes up tails for all 100. Is heads or tails more likely to appear on the next toss?

Do you have a positive expectation when you gamble?

Have you heard of and if so, what do you know about, the following people: Nick Dandalos, Julian Bruan, Johnny Moss, Kenny Uston, Steve Fezzik, Jeffery Ma, Michael Roxborough, Thomas Austin Preston, William Nelson Darnborough, Erich Weiss?

Definately tails.

Now tell us why.

Easy... The chance of a fair coin being flipped tails 100 times in a row is 1 in 1267650600228229401496703205376. If you figure that not that many coins exist and there are many bias coins, the chances of the coin you're flipping being bias are better than the chances of the coin being fair, so you're more likely to have tails next.

I say tail twice is better than once and thrice is better,,etc [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

If the coin was fair then it would be 50/50. But as you pointed out, given the previous results, there's a good chance the coin isn't fair. And you have to assume a problem if you're a casino worker.
