Thanks for the link. I wonder how he was able to gain entry/ reprogram a machine on the floor in A.C.
without getting seen? We will probably never learn all the details.
It turned out that Ron Harris had access to the source code of a random number generator, which is used in electronic keno. He cleverly used this information to predict the results of the draw (which is not so simple ) which made it possible to "guess" all the numbers on the ticket.

Many video games are designed the same way. Speed runners have figured this stuff out and beat games that used to take hours or days under normal play and now do it within minutes in some cases.

The below is in every compact between the State of Michigan and each Tribe that I quickly reviewed:


(2) A representative authorized in writing by the Governor of the State shall - - have the following right to inspect all tribal Class 111 gaming facilities and
all tribal records related to Class 111 gaming, including those records set
forth in 5 4(F) herein, subject to the following conditions:

(a) With respect to public areas, at any time without prior notice;

(b) With respect to private areas not accessible to the public, at any
time during normal business hours, with 12 hours prior written
notice; and

(c) With respect to inspection and copying of all tribal records relating
to Class 111 gaming, with 48 hours prior written notice, not
including weekends.


I would consider (2)(a) above to mean that if a complaint were lodged with the State of Michigan and if they got the urge; they could inspect video poker machines on Reservations anytime they wanted.
Thanks Ted could you tell me how to reach the source of this info. and any possible public reporting of there checks and findings?
If they act on some random checking cycle or only upon complaints would be a crucial factor for players to know.

This guy is still knocking down them rolling pots. There is no luck here. It must have to do with volume at the $25 per hand. These pots once they cross 4k go in less then 30 mins. How much can you lose in 15 minutes playing 100 play nickels? The average pot hits near $4500. I have only seen one in 6 weeks go below $4300.

If one starts playing at the $4200 mark, 200 hands and it hits. At $25 a crack I ran 10 test runs on Video Poker for Winners. The average loss came to 45 bucks on 350 hands per session.

How I came up with 350 hands was if one started at $4200 and it must hit at $5000, if one had to play all the way to the top end of the range would be about 350 hands.

So my take on this is using 15 mins and $4500 for averages to me its not that much of a risk at the $25 a hand to play 100 hand.

What do you all think?
