Casinos have long been prey to organized crime. When the Casino was not a magnificent money to whiten money, it could be emptied with sometimes ubiquitous plans that have worked and which have become material to fill the dark rooms around the world. Literature and cinema have made these bandits of real heroes. Even if it is more moral to steal the rich than to rob the granny and its savings, we cannot praise what is illegal. However, we will tell you how two different gangs have defrauded the casinos and this time without going through hackers and computer networks. We are on cases where the belligerents are school day before or talented opportunists. Success is not necessarily at the turn.
Cheating gang or stroller technique
It is often heard that this technique has been made obsolete by the multiplication of cameras in casinos and the development of software that would signal all the extraordinary movements to the security center. First, this software is so secret that you can wonder if it really exists and secondly, it is not perfect in front of the stroller experts. The stroller is a very simple technique to understand. It is effective in roulette and ball tables. It is "enough" to push a token when the ball stopped on a box. Obviously, the difficulty is to do it discreetly at the worst moments, because this is where the dealer will do the accounts. The opening window to make a stroller and less than a second. In addition to this difficulty, no one should see the subterfuge: Neither the players, the croupiers, the cameras, the vigils. This technique is at the level of difficulty of the pickpocket which steals your watch by asking you the time. Most of those who try to do so get caught in the bag.
Best Casinos - September 2024
Recently, it was at the Deauville barrier casino that two stroller swindles were caught by the safety of the casino. Often, casinos are discreet when they get fooled, but when they catch the crooks, they send a message to all thugs and other little, clever "not at home". It is also a challenge launched to all aces. The two amateurs have in fact revealed to be pros with false papers. The gang of cheaters has operated for years and never knows how to catch. They preferred to hang up before they were taken. Their technique was ingenious, because they were not based solely on the dexterity and the speed of the pusher. They were trying to master the external parameters as much as possible. Needless to say, to last, this gang was made up of rare talent pusher. The problem they quickly encountered was their notoriety with casinos. If a player earns 100,000 euros as soon as he settles in a roulette table, he will arouse suspicion and therefore focus the attention of all the casino staff. And even the best shooter in the world cannot make his gesture by focusing attention. The tip found by the gang is simply worthy of a Hollywood film. They were cuming to avoid attracting attention. For a player, there were always several accomplices with him. It was when the pusher was going to make his gesture that the accomplices were responsible for joining the attention of the dealer and sometimes even vigils. the CroPArs was never chosen at random. They chose it with caution by favoring beginners while waiting for the moment when he was at the end of the working day so that he was tired and less vigilant.
They never got caught and they were able to stop when this life tired them. They took more pleasure à cheat earn money. And that became dangerous, not with the multiplication of cameras, but because the habit could make them less vigilant. For the cameras, they made fun of it. While the vigil can see the subterfuge, it was already outside. The speed of execution, the counter-information launched by the accomplices made it difficult to identify the technique used. In the PI
re of the cases, the vigil had to rewind - at the time, it was tape cassettes - Look, check. They knew the world of casinos so well that they knew when the casinotier had doubts. In these cases, they quietly left the casino. You can say that this gang is legendary and that it rarely speaks to the press. One of the members would be today magistrate! We don't know how long, they have practiced and how much they won. According to them Poussers still exist and if the arrests are rare, it is simply because they are good.
Invisible infrared lenses and ink
Again, it was the barrier casino "the princes" in Cannes who was the victim of a rather daring and original scam attempt. The crooks have sinned by gluttony by settling in a Texas Hold'em's Poker Table. They won big without ever losing; Over 10,000 euros in less than an hour! If it is not impossible, it is surprising to say the least for a casinotier. The players were arrested with infrared lenses. Investigators suspected the dealer and the card game. Jackpot. The cards were all marked with ink invisible to the naked eye, but visible with the infrared lenses.
The crooks are creative, but the employees of the casinos are vigilant, even if some Casino robberies have successfully succeeded ... The war is far from over!
