Casino Guides: the Format Bench
6 format cards on one bench: session pace, table rules and the recourse route behind each room are measured per guide before the first stake.
Offers, bench-tested
Four operators on the bench at a time: each one read against its own published terms - the entry price, the wagering load, the rails, the payout window. The readings are ours; the offers are quoted in the operator's own words.
Every card carries its reading on a 10-point dial plus four axis chips - terms, payments, withdrawal and licence. Offers move often - the operator's own page is always the current truth.

Cards appear in dial order, alphabetical order breaking ties. The dial visualises published figures, not a promise; nothing here is a recommendation to gamble, and the operator's own terms decide every claim.
Reading casino guides against the terms
Every casino format runs at its own pace, and the pace can be priced. The guides on this bench read the format card: what makes the type different, how fast a session moves, and which recourse route sits behind the room. The readings price the format before the first stake.

How to use this bench
Test one format per visit: open the guide, match its pace figure to your session, and let the clock have a vote. Every guide on this bench prices the per-hour cost of the format, and flags any house rule that drifts from the type card.
