That's the police acting unilaterally on behalf of one party. The burden of proof with respect to cheating is on the casino, and until they have something solid nobody should be arrested. Which is precisely why the police has no business doing this. > The catch 22 is the accused cannot defend themselves without divulging their secrets. LE has no business here, tough luck they should have run a business where the flow is one way by design instead of one with a pretend two way flow.

There should be some symmetry here, if the casino is a-ok with making money on gamblers then they should take their lumps when the situation is - temporarily - reversed. The police should not be in the business of protecting the revenue streams of gambling installation operators. Statistically unlikely equates 'we haven't seen this before' and that should not be enough reason to arrest people. That's the casino's problem though, not law enforcement. > It’s that these folks won in a statistically hugely unlikely way, and that alone is pretty damning evidence that something is off. Of course it was! If they had lost using the same method there would have been no issue. I have no illusions that had I been placing maximum bets on each spin, I'd have been escorted out of the casino after the first visit. I made a respectable amount of money (about 40k ZAR) over 13 months. I found one biased wheel (casino had maybe 14 tables in total?), which remained unfixed and remained biased for the next 13 months or so, and I repeatedly just placed small bets on all numbers in that slice that was biased.

If any one of those columns is an outlier, then that wheel is biased. Each time that slice 'wins' (no matter what the number is) simply make a checkmark in that column. For two months I spent those Saturday afternoons (til around midnight) sitting in the casino noting the frequency of each pie slice of the wheel on as many different roulette tables that I could simultaneously view (between 6 and 8 at a time).ĭivide the wheel into 5 pie slices (one will be a different size from the rest) and make 5 columns on a small page - one for each pie slice. My Saturday afternoons during this time were usually free and I was bored. As another poster put it below, the role of the player is to lose.Īnecdotally, I used to travel to a coastal city 650km away every two weeks for around 5 years. You could lose 500K in a casino and nobody would bat an eye but win 500K and suddenly the police is involved and the casino refuses to pay out.
