Is it possible for a croupier to?

Question

Ok, on the roulet wheel, the guy who spins it and then flicks the ball, do you think he can do it so well that he can land the ball within a certain part of the wheel?

Example...

I bet on 6, he aims to land it on or around 24.

Possible?

Answer 1

Sure it's possible, but what croupier in his right mind would try? As soon as the pit boss or security people noticed, he'd be fired and blacklisted as a dealer for life.

Answer 2

possible.

gambling is wrong and sinful....just so you know...makes it more enjoyable when you do it.

Answer 3

It sounds like you're asking whether it is possible for the croupier to cheat against the player. While it may be possible,  I think it is highly unlikely. The house edge is so great in games like roulette that it would be foolish for them to cheat, or to allow their employees to cheat.

Answer 4

Yes it is possible to spin to within the same section as the last spin. Some croupiers can spin within a range of 4-5 numbers. This is called section spinning. The problem here is that casino security watch the tables constantly and will notice this especially if it happens frequently. Also the Inspector may notice and request that the croup speed the wheel up slightly. If it is your friend who is the croupier dont get him in trouble so that you can win.

Answer 5

It is possible, but it's not legal for him/her to intentionally do it.  But it happens.try asking them what they're birthday is, bet the range around that number, and see what happens.  Tip well.

Answer 6

I doubt it very much.

And if he could, he should get his mate in on the act, doing the betting, and make a fortune.

Answer 7

i was a Croupier (Casino Dealer, for my U.S friends!!)) for 8 years, and just about every trainee at some time thought that they could do it.

While i would say it is theoretically possible, any dealer that can do it would be living in retirement. (and although playing poker for a living im certainly not retired yet!!)

Contrary to what Vegas mat, or Robert A think, If a dealer is capable of doing this to order,it would be virtually impossible for the house to catch or detect.
