I agree, you can sell information to both groups. That doesn't mean you can go on the radio telling people how great a promotion is while at the same time going to the casino and trying to tell them how to change the promotion. Your role on the radio show is similar to a journalist and this would be a career ending mistake for a journalist.
It should be clear to everyone that you have a dog in this fight. I would hope that players would similarly use their first amendment right to make it difficult for you to go out in public. I would hope that any person that sees you sells your true name and identity to the casino you are playing at. I would hope you are now banned from the blackjack ball as someone who tries to work for the casinos.

I do believe that players who take my classes and read the materials I produce will have better gambling results than players who don't. If you believe otherwise, don't read my stuff.

My view is that players and casinos both have to survive for this to work. If casinos take all the money from players, then casinos will go broke because there is nobody to support them. Likewise, if casinos lose too much money to players (as a whole), the casinos go broke and then the players will have nobody to win from.
