What if you are on a winning streak, and haven't
broken any laws, and you are not cheating… can a casino ask
you to leave or ban you from the casino ?
A casino is a private business, and they have a right to throw you out
or even ban you from coming back.
What are some common forms of casino cheating?
Some examples include:
- Past posting - Making a small bet, and if the cards
look good, then adding chips to your bet.
- Collusion - Working
together with a casino employee to rig a game
- A player works with the
dealer with the dealer signaling his hand to the player, so that the
player has a larger payout.
Is cheating a casino a crime in Missouri?
It
is a Class D felony.
Is it a crime to count cards?
- Obviously casinos discourage it, but card counting is not a
crime.
- However, if you use some type of device to help count cards,
then it is a felony.
Casinos obviously have surveillance cameras, but are
there any new high tech changes in the future for the industry?
Currently the industry is working on a new type of chip that can send
radio signals to a nearby computer.
The computers will then be able to track how many chips are bet
on each hand, and the casino can track who has chips or if the chips
leave the casino.
Operating a casino is big business, and eventually cheaters
get caught.
