Man With System Enters Casino, Exits System
Witnesses say the fourteen-step roulette method performed flawlessly right up until the first spin.
LAS VEGAS. A man who arrived at the Golden Parlay Casino on Tuesday night carrying a laminated, fourteen-step roulette system left ninety minutes later carrying only the laminate, casino officials confirmed.
Gary Pemberton, 44, had spent six months refining the method, which he described to staff at the door as mathematically inevitable. The system called for doubling his stake after every loss, a step it reached, by Pemberton’s own count, eleven times in a row.
Step one worked perfectly. Step one is walking in.
Pit supervisor Lorraine Castellanos said the casino sees between thirty and forty systems a week and has, to date, been beaten by none of them. “We love a system,” she said. “Systems pay for the fountain.”
What the system required
- A starting bankroll the system described as “modest”
- A table with no maximum bet, which does not exist
- Infinite money, listed under “optional”
- Red, eventually
It only fails if you stop. I stopped because they asked for my watch.
Pemberton told reporters he has already identified the flaw, which was the wheel, and expects version two to be ready by the weekend.
