PyCon APAC 2025

[Talk] Python in the Casino Industry
2025-03-01 , F223

This talk focuses on the use of Python in building and implementing simulations tailored for the casino environment. Sample use cases:

  • Game Mechanics Optimization: Leveraging Monte Carlo simulations and custom probability models to test and refine the payout structures and mechanics of games, ensuring regulatory compliance and an engaging player experience.

  • Risk Analysis: Applying simulation techniques to evaluate operational risks, such as managing jackpot payouts and assessing the financial impact of rare but high-stakes events.

  • Scenario Testing: Using Python to model and stress-test hypothetical situations, such as changes in customer behaviors, or adjustments in game rules, providing valuable insights for strategic planning.


We will focus on item 3: Scenario testing, where we show how the Casino's decision can change based on the betting behaviour of the patron/customer.
