FFS, that list was lame. It didn't cover a number of ways that pros have used over the years to cheat casinos. Here's an example not coverd, but won't work now with ticket payouts.

And then there's past posting at roulette. Still being done by the brazen and greedy.

And then there's card swapping at blackjack, which is still possible at casinos that deal the cards to the players face down.

Very easy to see why 150 years ago so many people ended up shot or in a fight.
I'm sure this happens quite often but I saw a guy past posting not to long ago at a blackjack table.
He was in the anchor seat and occasionally playing the side bet called kings bounty, I've personally never played the side bet because blackjack is hard enough to beat as it is so I don't really know the payouts on it. I just remember the dealer throws out the first card he has a face and when she goes to kick around the 2nd card he quickly past posts $5 and hits another face card to win a whole $5 bucks but when he did it he celebrated like it was the national championship.
A friend of mine was at the table with me and we both seen it happened and snap looked at each other without saying a word like, yo did we really just see that happen? He got away with it because he was more often than not betting the side for various amounts of money. Still, pretty ballsy move considering you're probably going to catch a life time 86 from michigan gaming if you're caught and possibly worse like a felony. All for a red chip. lol. I guess I could have posted this in the niggas doing dumb things thread because we all know his color.
After it happened he continued to play on and off, I don't recall seeing him past posting again but again it's not something I'm like staring at but my buddy and I kept making jokes and referencing the incident without really saying anything. Like double down situations try and double for more as a joke, when we get dealt the kings bounty shit pretend while the dealer is waiting for your action that you're putting a red chip down on it. I'm sure the guy was like fuck you guys! but hey, were not rating you out but we know you're cheating.
Also I had to use the bathroom while he was still in the game, obviously I do not trust this guy at all and I'm sitting right next to him. So I colored my chips up and asked for a marker. The dealer was like why are you coloring up? You can just leave your chips right there! I'm like Yea.. I have my reasons.
