If the casino does not reduce the 0,5% house edge from every bet, how does the casino collect the house edge?

It was literally explained in great detail in my post. Here it is again for you.

Yes, the first paragraph of this analysis confirms that the casino collects the house edge via the number of bets a player loses!

Confirmation 1)

"Analysis:

The house edge is not something the casino "reduces" or substracts from your bet in a literal sense."

This statement confirms the following:

How does the casino reduce or substract the house edge?

~~A) Reduce or substract 0,5% from every bet~~

~~B) Reduce 0,5% from the total amount wagered~~

C) Via the number of bets a player loses

[Confirmation 2)

"Analysis:

In Blackjack, with a house edge of 0.5%, this means that for every $100 you wager, the casino expects to keep $0.50 on average, and you expect to get $99.50 on average."

This statement confirms that the player will lose 0,5 bets every 100 bets

a) 100 bets per $1 = $100 total amount wagered.

b) The $0.50 I will lose on average per 100 bets means I will lose a half bet per 100 bets
