The crucial part in ticket cheating is getting a valid ticket ID. But it's not hard to get a valid ticket ID. Put $1 in a machine, hit cash out and — voila — you have a valid ticket ID. Now, scan the ticket and use your Photoshop skills to turn that $1 ticket into a $1,000 ticket. You can't redeem your fraudulent ticket at a redemption machine because it retrieves the value of the ticket from the ticket database. You have to redeem your ticket at the cage or with a slot floorperson, but that's risky now because their procedure is to scan the ticket, verify that the system says the ticket can be redeemed, and check the value on the ticket with the value from the ticket database displayed on their screen. The value from the database is the official value of the ticket.

The ticket database stores all of the data printed on a ticket — date and time issued, amount, machine, ID — and, in many cases, the players card number if there is a players card in the reader when the ticket is issued. When you're leaving a machine, always cash out before removing your players card. When a ticket is redeemed, the date, time and location of redemption are captured in the ticket database.

If the player used a players card when the ticket was printed, the database connects the player with the ticket. If the player did not use a players card, the casino may review machine and ticket records and surveillance footage for high-value tickets. If a ticket is so mangled that it can't be read, the casino can find the correct amount using players club, machine and ticket database records. If someone turns in a ticket, it's easy to figure out whom it belongs to if a players club number is attached to it. If not, the casino is back to reviewing database records to try to determine the owner. That's a lot of work, so casinos do it for high-value tickets only.

All of the issuance and redemption data is in the ticket database. One company has developed software that can track the money on a ticket through all of the tickets in its lineage all the way back to the original machine.

I've noticed a flash from the machine when I cash out vouchers from a slot machine. Maybe I had removed my player's card before hitting cash-out and that's why. They seem to be taking flash pictures of people doing cash-outs from the machine itself, but maybe not all cash-outs. Cash-outs for abandoned <$1 amounts are also snapshotted.

I tried to insert a 1999 $100 bill into a slot machine and it got stuck. The slot attendant came around and opened the machine to retrieve the stuck bill. He couldn't get the machine to accept it either. We tried a newer $100 bill and that worked. So I had to go to the cage and exchange the old $100 bill for the new $100 bill.

Triple Lux

I'm thrilled with the Triple Lux system, but I can't seem to get two hits on a number, much less three. I probably need a 40 roll hand to get to table max on a number. But there's one Hot Shooter per hour (or two), so it might be worth trying out.

Dealer trying to explain this system while going too fast to explain it well.
I'll try to explain what I thought he said.

For a $5-$5,000 Table
4:10: $5, $15, $15, $40, $100, $100, $300, $500, $1500, $1500, $4500, $5000
5,9: $5, $15, $36, $36, $86, $200, $200, $500, $500, $1250, $1250, $2500, $3500, $5000
6,8: $6, $18, $42, $42, $90, $90, $210, $450, $450, $900, $900, $1800, $3000, $5000

For a $10-$5,000 Table
4,10: $10, $25, $25, $75, $200, $500, $1500, $3000, $5000
5,9: $10, $25, $60, $60, $125, $125, $300, $750, $1500, $3500, $5000
6,8: $12, $30, $66, $66, $150, $330, $720, $720, $1500, $3000, $5000

He mentioned that $15 tables are like $5 tables and $25 tables are like $10 tables at the beginning. I can only infer what he meant.
