I’m confused… don’t those electronic crap games have croupiers?

Why didn’t the croupier declare it an illegal roll?

Can someone explain electronic slots to me like I’m 5?!

This is what they look like, looks like they still use a real dealer and dice the only thing electronic is the bets. And the table looks to be more susceptible to dice sliding since it has less friction than a real craps table. This was right after COVID so they may have gotten lucky with an inexperienced croupier/dealer person.

lol@cheating and still using a players card. i think the mask mandate was still in effect then if they were less greedy they could have gotten away with it.

ya ..... but any US casino will ask ID for any significant cash transaction. Impossible to hit 225k profit total with only small transactions, unless it was done in like 100s of small sessions

right but it was a team of people. they easily could have done this is smaller increments and gotten away with it. but as usual with any good casino scheme people get greedy and get caught.

Maybe that does happen and for every group who gets greedy and caught there are dozens who are smart about it and we never hear anything because they got away with it.

Can someone please explain to me how this cheat is supposed to work? When you throw the dice it's practically guaranteed to roll. These tables also have several steps going higher towards the back wall to prevent exactly this kind of sliding.

on the YT video i linked earlier the uploader said the earlier versions of this table did not have the bumps, it was originally a smooth flat surface and then the casinos learned their lesson

On this table it couldn't because of the speed bumps in place...but when these tables first came out, smooth fast surface

Casinos adjust fast. Thanks for the answer.
