Question

Are the F.O.B.T (Fixed Odds Betting Terminals) That they have in betting shops Rigged?

Answer 1

no a completley random generated number is produced every second if you and the person next to you hit the button at the exact same time you would both recieve the same number no matter what number you had betted on

Answer 2

They are a rip-off. But that is nothing new, actually. Check out how often they are being replaced because of some people cracking the system (Windows xp they run on) and check out how many aren't even discovered to be run by hackers. The whole thing is a computer controlled betting facility, and any computer system can be broken into.
