Casino & gambling riddles
Much like rapper C-Loc’s classic Baton Rouge album, “Life’s a Gamble,” the emphasis is on risk. Today, more than ever, a rap career is similar to buying a lottery ticket. The odds of winning are slim, but a huge payout is always a possibility, no matter how remote.

The casino players
Riddle: There are four men who sit at a casino all night long and play until the crack of dawn. They are there for money instead of fun with a separate score for every one.
When it is time to square the accounts, they each make fair amounts. No one lost, and all gain – can you you explain?
Answer: Each man is a musician for the casino’s entertainment.
A mysterious gambling association
Riddle: A large group, each with a different face – regularly in smaller groups of four with identity as your case.
The first group will bring a desire of wealth – to steal though is tough and requires stealth.
The second group distract you and lead your mind astray, but don’t let this happen or your life will pay.
The third group can be utilised to take a life, without even using a gun or a knife.
The final group can be used to hide a man who just happened to have died.
Now if you were paying attention, what is this mysterious association we mentioned?
Answer: A pack of cards – each clue describes the four suits of a deck.
- First group – Diamonds, as they make you wealthy but are very hard to steal
- Second group – Hearts, as they can lead you astray
- Third group – Clubs, these are weapons which can be used to kill people
- Fourth group – Spades, which can be used to cover up a murder by burying a body
Heads or tails
Riddle: A gambler has three coins in his hand – the first is a regular coin, the second has two heads, and the third has two tails. The gambler picks a coin at random, flips it, and the result is heads.
What is the likelihood the other side is tails?
Answer: Since there are three heads and only one has a tails on the other side the likelihood is one in three – more of a mathematical problem than a riddle but fun to crack nevertheless.

A BlackJack
Riddle: A man visited a local land-based casino and on his first hand he managed to get a blackjack, while the next hand he lost. He then got another hand with a blackjack and the next hand he lost again. He ended up leaving the casino having lost every single hand and with no winnings at all – how is this possible?
Answer: The first hand featured a Jack of Spades and his third hand featured a Jack of Spades, both of which are black Jacks.

Poker face
Riddle: What is the weakest hand in a game of Texas Hold’em, which you can have but still end on the river with a guarantee of victory?
Answer: Three Queens. For example, if you hold a Queen of Hearts and a Queen of Diamonds, and the board is showing Queen of Diamonds, Jack of Diamonds, seven of Clubs, four of Clubs, and two of Hearts, you can’t be beat. A straight or flush isn’t possible and no rank is higher than your Queens to allow someone to hold a better three of a kind.
The identical pokies
Poker Face Life's A Gamble Full
Riddle: A man owns a small casino with 50 pokies, each identical in appearance and the way they function. They all have the same return to player percentage.

Answer: Nothing – it ultimately comes down to the human factor and that more people must be playing it and losing.
