Re: pub games cheating
specter yeah but keystone has some very freaky results, defenitly against the odds.
I have seen triple 1 roll 6 times in a row, double 1's come often meaning I get low numbers more often than high, 15 seems to be the most frequent high number and is a high odds number, 10 and 11 rarely come out close together when on the rule of averages they should do.
So now I cover 7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14 on outside max bet. 9 times out of 10 I make a small to moderate profit, if the game ends quickly (under 3 throws you can lose big however). To counter that I place 2 chips on 15,16,5,6,triple and one chip on 3,4,17,18. If one of the inside bets comes in the win is big enough to cover some losses on other games and I seem to make a steady profit overall. The only scenario I will typically lose on is if 10 and 11 come out both early which funny enough is actually quite rare usually the first keystone to be rolled is rolled numerous times in one game but the 2nd either doesnt get rolled or is late on after 7+ rolls, if I get a 3 or 18 I would win big enough to not worry about it been a quick game.
Initially I was following a tactic I read about where I only placed outside bets on the 8 most likely numbers 7 to 14 but I noticed frequent occurances on 15 and numbers below 5, I then had the numerous triple ones in a row which seemed like the game going out its way to make it lose and hence my new betting pattern. It doesnt rank on tournaments tho as the wins arent big enough.
