English term or phrase: card counter
The stock market is better than the casino because you can get an edge all the time.. it doesn’t mean you win every day but you have a mathematical edge if you do it appropriately where a casino unless you’re a card counter or a black jack they have the edge all the time and there’s no way to win at craps or roulette or any of those kind of silly games.
