Roulette Prediction Device?
It seems that a nifty little device that calculates where the ball will land in Roulette is for sale in the UK.
Professional gamblers are rushing to buy £1,000 devices that they believe will enable them to win millions of pounds in casinos when the gambling industry is deregulated next year.
Hundreds of the roulette-cheating machines - which consist of a small digital time recorder, a concealed computer and a hidden earpiece - were tested at a government laboratory in 2004 after a gang suspected of using them won £1.3m at the Ritz casino in London.
After the research, which was never made public but has been seen by the Guardian, the government's gambling watchdog admitted to industry insiders that the technology can offer punters an edge when playing roulette in a casino, and the advantage can be "considerable".
People seem to agree it works, but the question is, will using it be considered cheating, or just science used to help you make a better decision (see card counting). Either way, you will likely be unceremoniously booted from the casino if you're caught.
