For decades, the massive, sprawling "all-you-can-eat" buffet was the undisputed defining symbol of a Las Vegas casino vacation.
+
Understanding exactly how the [casino](http://itz.my.id/read-blog/2434_psemata-kai-alh8eies-ston-xwro-toy-online-tzogoy.html) ensures they make a profit while you gorge yourself on crab legs reveals the brilliant psychology behind the buffet line.
+The Secret Psychology of Buffet Plates +
Modern casino buffet plates are significantly, intentionally smaller and heavier than standard restaurant dinner plates.
+
Chefs also utilize massive, oversized serving spoons for the cheap carbohydrates (like mashed potatoes and macaroni) and tiny, restrictive tongs for the expensive meats.
+The layout is heavily engineered; cheap breads and salads are always placed at the very front of the lineExpensive items like crab legs require tedious, time-consuming peeling, slowing down consumptionMany modern buffets now pre-plate food in tiny, single-bite ramekins to strictly control portion sizes +The Economics of Food Waste and Labor +
A massive casino buffet completely eliminates this inefficiency because they dictate exactly what is served, controlling the menu based entirely on current wholesale market prices.
+
Because the guests physically serve themselves the food, the casino can employ drastically fewer waiters, relying only on lower-paid staff to clear empty plates and refill drinks.
+The Premium Buffet Experience +
At $80 a head, the casino is no longer using the food as a cheap trick to get you to gamble; the food itself is the massive profit center.
+
To justify these astronomical prices, casinos have replaced the massive troughs of cheap, rubbery scrambled eggs with live-action cooking stations and premium ingredients like Wagyu beef.

To "beat" the buffet, you must ignore the cheap carbohydrates entirely, pace yourself carefully, and aggressively target the carving station and the seafood bar.
