    Fun fact. In Australia there is a law that makes a casino or club (places you can gamble here) have to make it so all patrons have access to the time. So where ever you’re sitting in the casino you have to be able to see a clock (they’re on all slot machines, on all walls, everywhere) good law.

    The dice bit of Ocean's 13 is definitely out of their hands - the story is that, they infiltrated into the dice manufacturing facility and altered how the dice were made altogether. I remember because there was a sub-plot that the dice factory workers (in Mexico) went on strike and to alleviate that issue - they were thinking of just paying the workers fairly which they thought were going to be tens of millions of dollars, but turns out it was just a few tens of thousands. Much like them, the billion dollar gambling industry should pay their workers fairly.

I have seen similar situations working as a dealer in AC many years ago with varying degrees of success on the part of the high roller. They tend to be less than thrilled when their advances are spurned, thereby leaving them with a bruised ego and a very salty disposition towards everyone.

    Yeah the dealer talking really felt awkward in Casino Royale, he was really talking to the viewers of the movie (those that have never watched a live game of poker), and not at all to the players. The showdown manipulation of the players cards felt embarrassing. There's just one thing that didn't shock me: the accumulation of super unlikely hands. That was pretty consistent with the common accumulation of super unlikely events in any James Bond movie.

I mean both banks and casino robberies have low success rates but every year at least one casino gets robbed and they are not caught. Same way they rob everyone else, walk in with guns and have the teller put the money quick at hand in a bag and then take off.
      They are usually arrested though, especially if they do it repeatedly. But not always.

    It’s not illegal it’s not cheating it’s using every advantage you have to your benefit.

      What I always wonder, how well do they catch card counters? For example, in poker the goal isn't to win every chip, it's more like the goal is to win 55+ big blinds for every 50 you lose. If someone is smart and fast enough to count cards, surely they can count the odds to where they are 'above average' lucky without being constantly lucky? Like, win 6 out of 10 hands, or even 3 out of 10 but bet a lot bigger on one of the 3 winners? Or keep count, lose 8/10, fake tilt, bet all your remaining chips (55% of starting chips) on a hand you know will hit. Stopping card counters doesn't seem noble at all, but I also doubt they could. I'm sure they stop some, but surely not all.

      It's because the casino has a plethora of game types and playing just one is like going to Disneyland to go on the Matterhorn multiple times and leaving without touching any other ride with the full park access ticket you purchase. Sure, you make a lot of money with that one game if you're good at it but it becomes suspicious after a while or it becomes the equivalent of loitering as much as a casino could consider it such. The key to not being kicked out is to go explore other games then come back to the game you were originally making money on. Repeat several times with various time differences between leaving and returning (and try to go to another table). It makes them less focused on you.

      Why not allow dealers who manage to impress customers such that they get tips to get paid more? What you propose pulls everyone down to the same level, makes everything bland. People arent the same or equal as they say and shound not get paid the same.

      The legal action is called trespassing. Same method bars use to kick out drunks and restaurants use to remove rude patrons. Any place of business can tell you you leave and call the cops if you refuse. Not unique to casinos at all.

    I worked at a Casino and a Dance-club attached, we had secret security dressed as civilians. Mostly big guys. Their job was, if the Casino didn't want direct confrontation, they would send those guys out to start a confrontation / argument with the party they wanted to kick out - hence using them as ploys to get rid of certain customers without arousing direct suspicion.

    In the Rounders scene, this is called a cooler, not a bad beat. A bad beat is when your opponent is the underdog when the betting occurs but ends up winning the hand. A cooler is when you have a strong hand (supposedly unfoldable) ultimately losing to a stronger hand.

    Lived in Vegas through the 80's. Fabulous town. Dealt 21, drove a cab, other things. One guy robbed a casino for $20,000 but stayed in town. Just walked up to the cage and demanded money. Security won't make too much of a fuss if it's crowded. (A little secret) The reward was $30,000 and someone turned him in. No, it wasn't me. I can attest to the notion that whatever happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. Mostly. Good luck.
