Proving it to yourself and the casino is all that matters.

You don't need to prove it's a game of chance. That work has already been done centuries ago.

It may be a game of chance to the regular public but if it was a game of chance to me I wouldn't play it.

If I want to discuss the details of my method I have a thread to do it in but I'm not doing that here. Every time I mention the word roulette somebody pops up and screams ' you can't talk about that!'.

you've never discussed the important details of your "method"
what give you such a large winning edge - winning 90% of your even chance bets

your thread doesn't educate anyone
it exists for one and only one purpose

I've done the Fibonacci at Roulette before and it is definitely not low-risk. You can get wiped out pretty quickly with a few bad spins. It's not as bad as Martingale but it's at least a medium-risk.

Given that EvenBob is forbidden to talk about his roulette "method" in other threads, it is not fair game for you to start attacking his "method" in other threads, hoping to provoke him into violating his agreement. Please stop doing that.

EB bragged about his roulette method in this thread
he posted this BEFORE I POSTED ANYTHING:
"It may be a game of chance to the regular public but if it was a game of chance to me I wouldn't play it"
then later he posted:
"show me somebody who is lucky all the time and I'll show you a winning method"
based on that it seems like my comments were fair
it doesn't matter to me what thread they're in
I don't plan to comment anymore about it but I hope others do either in this thread or in his own thread - what difference does it make
it seems strange and wrong to me that you jump in to defend somebody who has made such ridiculous and misleading claims
but I will follow what you asked and not comment further - anywhere

Lots of people envy systems that promise “guaranteed wins,” but the thing is: roulette has built-in house edge. No matter what system you use — Martingale, Fibonacci, Labouchere, or whatever — over many spins, the math favors the house.
What these betting systems can affect is volatility / risk per session:
Some systems make your swings bigger (you might win more in shorter time, but also lose bigger in short bursts).
Others are more conservative but drain more slowly.
One thing I’d like to see in any “comprehensive guide” is risk management suggestions: like setting a loss limit, or having a stop-loss even when you are winning. Without discipline, even the smartest system can lead to a quick bust.
He was spinning the wheel for electronic roulette and discovered the machine announced the winning number with a three-second delay. He found that if he moved the ball to another slot before the result was announced, the machine would announce that second number as the winner. He partnered with a number of players and split the winnings. He was caught, arrested and charged.
When his case was approaching a year later, the prosecutor offered one year in jail, one year probation and full restitution. He refused that offer as well as two others. In frustration, the prosecutor showed him their file. Surveillance photos with captions 'Cupping the ball, dropping into another slot' included.
When he saw the photos,he showed them to the prosecutor and his attorney and said, "This isn't me." "These photos aren't me". They weren't.
He ended up agreeing to a $250 fine.

It seems like there is a missing piece of this story. If it wasn't him in the photos doing it, who was doing it, and what did this guy get away with? Why did he have to pay a fine at all?
Quote: ChumpChangeI've tried to play the roulette machine and my best laid plans get so thwarted, I lose beyond what my loss goal was quickly. I play at a table with a $25 match play and for one spin there's not much better. There's no low HA tables or machines in my area, I'd have to go to Vegas or Atlantic City to find single zero or the half HA variant on that wheel at very high minimums. I've given up on this game in the meantime. I might play the machine at low limits to waste time if what I really want to play is busy.

Giving up in roulette is the best move, takes way too much time to study it and perhaps find a way around it.

The story is from an episode of 'Hustlers, Gamblers, Crooks' which aired on the Discovery Channel.
He claims he showed other dealers what he was doing and they began cheating as well. He mentioned one dealer buying a car and jewelry. The photos might have been one of those dealers. The show did not say.
He said he cheated the casino out of $200K. If his story is true, he got away with stealing $200K.
He probably mentioned what the $250 fine was for, but he said he was glad to pay it. Considering what he got away with.
Tells a good story. But is it true?
