I don't know that the term "fraud" is used, but every State that has gambling/gaming has special laws that protect the integrity of the games. That's why "cheating" the casino can actually get you arrested in most cases. (Not that the casino will always give enough of a shite to press charges, but they do mostly have that option.)

Things like altering a slot machine, marking cards, and violating the rules of table games are all criminal offenses.

*Counting cards is the outlier. You're not technically altering the game; the casino does have the right to not allow you to play, but it's not against the law.

Casinos get almost their entire revenue from addicts and stupid people.

They are predators, but they are predators who generate tax revenue, and therefore they are protected.

It's all bullshite

Depends on the casino. Shitholes like downtown? Yeah, the vast majority of the people in there are degenerates.

Nicer casinos elsewhere? They make most of their money off of the fewer highend players. The Beau Rivage made over 80% of their revenue from the top 10% of their players.

Yep.

Asians make up the majority of the high level players at both l'auberge lake Charles and baton rouge. LBR now has a high limit Baccart table mainly due to Asians

If this were to happen at an Indian reservation casino, who has jurisdiction? Just curious.

So how did they catch him at the airport? Were they able to electronically find out he had a plane ticket out at a certain time?

There are tribal police/courts; however, generally speaking the FBI investigates felonies on Tribal land.

I was watching a few video demonstrations and most of them look far too obvious - I was thinking there's no way this would go unnoticed. Then I saw a video of a guy rolling one of the dice while sliding a 6 on the other, which greatly increases the odds. I can definitely see a skilled roller/slider pulling this off.

I have played in Vegas where you had to use the cup.

Eliminates sliding.

He is not "tossing" the dice. Dice sliding is just that....setting the dice at a value and sliding the presented value across the felt while a partner distracts the stick man or dealer.


The better way to do it and not be obvious is to set one die on 6 and slide it while letting the other one toss normal. Increases odds in your favor and looks more legit

Casinos love hearing people say that.




Dice setting and dice sliding take lots of practice. Especially to be slick enough to get away with it. Takes months of practice to get it down. You have to find the sweet spot for the roll and practice it over and over until you develop muscle memory

Craps clearly says the dice must be rolled. Not slid.


I prefer dice setting but it's harder to do. You set both die with the four facing up on both and the two on both facing you abd throw it where the die roll on an axis and it will avoid hitting 7 because all 4 sides it can land on equal to numbers other than 7. You have to mess up the throw to get a 7 and it leads to really long throws before crapping out

Do it outside Baton Rouge since they appear to be onto it now.

Surprised the dealer didn't catch it. I guess maybe he could have been distracted by the other team mates.

Everyone who thinks they can do that, can't.

Furthermore, rules require that you hit the back wall which is covered with those little pyramids that scatter the dice.
