It’s also important to understand that the “house edge” isn’t about luck - it’s pure math built into the algorithms (RTP, volatility, etc.). At the same time, a lot depends on the operator. Different providers offer different levels of flexibility, and the casino owner ultimately decides what kind of conditions to offer players.
