The Bally\’s System

Awesome must-read story that gives some behind-the-scenes insight into how a casino really works.

\”We\’ve got a system,\” Brant said. \”Our strategy is to bet against all the customers who come in here. Then we spread our bets around to each and every table and machine in the casino and keep at it for the long haul. We were down about $200 at one of the roulette tables, but were up on everything else, so we came out pretty much ahead. Actually, more than half a million ahead.\”

I wonder if The Onion has been credentialed to cover the WSOP.
