Realtime Gaming cheats: casino suggests software is predictable
In my recent Rushmore theft article I noted an almost ad nauseum response to any question with the statement "We can not verify this player and refuse the right to pay", unfounded as it turned out to be.
Since then, Rushmore has issued further statements, most recently in a post containing this remarkable claim:
We have deemed that this is a fraud ring which was operating which is either and/or using some sort of software and/or bonus abuse technique in order to accumulate the same winnings each time.
On a sidenote to the alleged fraud aspect: the apparent proof, in the form of profile similarities...
....assuming the claim is genuine, is indicative of possible group information sharing, and extremely common practice. This is not illegal.
However, the more extraordinary claim is the talk of "...using some sort of software...in order to accumulate the same winnings each time."
Realtime Gaming software is random. There is no programme in existence which can tell a player how to bet in order to achieve a given win, as random software is, by definition, non-predictable. I have played many hundreds of thousands of hands on RTG software, and I am convinced it is fair.
So we have a discrepancy here, and there are two possible explanations:
1) The casino is right and I am wrong. RTG is non-random, or rigged. It is therefore conceivable that a given software programme could read the patterns and predict subsequent results in order to achieve a precise win level.
2) I am right and the casino is talking nonsense: RTG is random.
The first scenario above has no particular relevance to the player; if one is able to detect patterns that lead to a greater winning possibility, then that's all part of the gambling game whereby the player tries to win as much as possible. However, the consequences would not be good for RTG, because a major software supplier found cheating would be big news.
As such, I suspect that RTG would hotly dispute the casino suggestion that their software may be non-random, and I would support them in so doing.
Assuming the second scenario is correct, and it most certainly is, then the casino is left having made an uncorroborated and absurd statement in public, and their case for not paying the player is weakened further with these fabricated accusations against their software supplier.
I will be discussing with Rushmore their accusation that RTG may be non-random at the gambling conference at the Prague Supershow next week, and will report on their response.

I feel this whole cherade with RNG is garbage, the number of times I have watched a roulette wheel spin the only number on the board not being covered is nothing short of criminal. This should be deemed illegal, it is as though those machines are saying you can pick any number of numbers and i am going to spin any one of the numbers you do not select, or ensure that I give you a number that will ensure that you lose. A gambler pays their money and should therfore take their chances, but the nature of the gamble should be 'fair', it is getting to the point where I think punters should just go to the counter and give the cashier their money and leave. Random numbers is BS, simple, no puner can be that unlucky, and no bookie can be that lucky, punters are being ripped off.

I've had similar thoughts many times. However, in the cold light of day I've invariably ended up accepting freak runs for the bad luck they represent, rather than dodgy dealing.
