Absolutely, you have outlined some key aspects of how casinos ensure profitability when it comes to gambling decisions.

Different bets have different probabilities of winning, and the payouts are adjusted accordingly to ensure the casino maintains its edge in the long run.
In card games like poker, where players compete against each other rather than the house, casinos still generate revenue by taking a percentage of each pot in cash games or charging fees for tournament participation.

This, combined with mechanisms like the house edge in roulette and the rake in poker, allows casinos to be profitable in the long term while still offering games that are entertaining and potentially rewarding for players.
