Casino owners prefer inexperienced players because "an average inexperienced player does not have sufficient skill at the game to win". or it means "that low experience = low skill = low chances of winning" . The only inference that could be made from this is that, with more experience chances of winning would be more (reverse causality).
Ans B explains the same thing.
point D has "expect to" which doesnt help this option. a simple statement "Inexperienced players lose more money than do experienced players, when playing poker at casinos." should have been a correct choice.
Hence Ans B it is.
