    Of course the odds are in the favour of the house, that’s how the house gets paid - that’s why theres a 0 on the Roulette wheel, to take the obvious example. Everybody understands this.

    And of course the odds of winning a big prize are longer than the odds of winning a small one… That’s, well, obvious.

    None of this is “rigged”, it’s the game. You haven’t discovered some dark secret, you’ve just understood “how casinos work” and the players understand it perfectly well too. (In well regulated markets the pay tables are published, audited, and available for anyone to view.)
