I miss rotary phones. You can't give anyone a proper flogging these days.

That's not a rotary phone,
but I get your point.

Hmm were the staff in on it? How could they get that much money while cheating and not get caught at the table? Wow.

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


The casinos where I live are kind of lenient on that. The key is to barely tap the wall where it has little effect. Takes practice

Respectfully, if three dealers and 30+ cameras cannot pick up a technique as archaic as sliding then something is wrong with their system. Virtually every table manufactured in the last 35 years has defense mechanisms against this technique. Comical that they had to go to these measures and lets everyone else know how soft their security is. I can only imagine the number being pulled from these hacks in BJ and roulette given this story. I am on my way now!

Well, that is just it. 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.


Either you are a shill for the ephen industry that only plays games with as much as a 35% advantage, or you are an illinformed schmuck that should not be posting about garbage you have no clue about. Have you been on a craps table in the last 30-40 years? Every one of them require a roll to the back wall and all of them have a minor bump (metal rod) on both sides of the table, that prevent sliding because they cause the dice to jump. Watch closely in between your "free" Crown and cokes (which are watered down versions of cheap bourbon) the next time you are in a high class establishment like this.

The fact that they are even suggesting sliding as a viable method is comical at best, if not altogether illogical. Also tells me the sharps are going to be after this place in the coming months given their soft "security" methods.

Casinos are not fans of someone improving odds against the house, even if nominally 'legal'. They aren't in the business as objective game-providers.

since gambling/gaming is highly regulated, typically the regulatory scheme itself imposes the odds, so if you do something to gain an edge not anticipated within the regulatory scheme, the gain is void as it's illegal.
