It depends what you want to manage in the casino. If you want to manage the hotle you dont' have to know much about gaming. If you want to manage the casino itself you have to know dealing procedures etc (you have to have been a dealer). I know of a couple of exceptions, but those are few and far between and they got juiced in years ago when the business was smaller and casinos were owned by individuals and they knew the owners. There might also be some exceptions when new markets open up to casino gaming.
