casino

Wagering establishment venue

A casino is an establishment where people gamble, typically featuring games like blackjack, poker, roulette, and slot machines.

Casinos range from massive resort complexes in Las Vegas and Macau to modest riverboat operations.

The word extends to card games played at home: We're having a casino night.

Casino is also a specific card game involving capturing cards that match or sum to cards on the table.
