Welcome to Games of Chance Gaming
My Story
I am no different than anyone else, I had my life setbacks. Now in my 50s, I can say life feels different. Expectations changed for me, from the idea that when you do something you always get what you think you are entitled to get every time. I work towards goals now, understanding that life will get sideways again for me somewhere along the way towards the next goal or destination. My name is Scott Christopher Burns.
Growing up in the Almaden Valley of San Jose, California, I witnessed technology change our lives. I spent time throughout the west coast until I left for Las Vegas in August of 2003 to attend UNLV at William F. Harrah College of Hospitality.
My work experience was in Shanghai and Las Vegas. I studied with Cornell to expand my understanding of hospitality strategies. Real estate is at the core of all of our lives and is a significant interest of mine also.
Hotels and nightclubs will continue to be necessary for my idea of what a casino gaming experience should include. More specifically, proper product placement, with an emphasis on timing and space utilization to increase profits in the casino resort industry.
My Community
Games of Chance social on YouTube is for educational purposes at this point. The space will expand as my understanding of casino gaming expands with my studies at UNLV and the Master of Hospitality with a focus on casino gaming.
Casino Gaming has created cities and the industry has expanded internationally and online. Generational changes influence casino gaming industry, those changes influence society. The idea is to get a better understanding of the total conversation to understand where I fit in to make positive changes in a great industry.
My Goal
Casino Gaming is a broad enough topic to keep my thoughts busy with an exciting pace for life. Research is something I enjoy and the idea of making money at it in an industry I like is what motivates me to keep going.
Another interest is personal rehabilitation to create a better mind, body and soul connection after several accidents altered some healthy years for me. During those times that felt like wasted years, I can now understand why immediate significant progress is nice but when I suffered setbacks I began to unpackage my own thoughts, and here I am. I have faith in the understanding that I just need to keep on living and not worry too much about anything else.
