The house edge is in the construction of every casino game so that the casino will always have an edge. No strategy can completely eliminate the house edge, but proficient players can minimize it with the right strategies in some games, such as blackjack.

No strategy will guarantee a constant win since much of it is in luck. Knowing when to walk away is just as important as any strategy in the long run. Was there ever a time when you reduced the house edge in your favorite casino game, and what did you do to achieve this?
 
Yeah, the house always has the upper hand. But I've found that if you stick to games like blackjack and craps, and use perfect basic strategy, you can get that edge down pretty low. Not zero, but low enough that you can have a fun time without getting crushed. Key is knowing when to walk away, like you said. Chasing losses is a surefire way to lose it all.
