¿Question #4793?
Gialmere: True Life Gaming: Did you ever watch one of those cable shows on how people cheated the house in Vegas, hoping to pick up some pointers for your next gambling trip?

kiloforce: The House Always Wins
Woelf: I don't take gambling trips. There are countless better ways to spend money than pissing it away at a slot machine or blackjack table.
vandemonium: I'm a long gone daddy in the USA
Caerid: uh huh
PasiMax: nope only watched 21 on dvd
slavek: no
kathleenryan: I've watched those show, but no. I like to watch them and marvel at the ingenious ways they came up with to "level the playing field." The common theme is that they all were too greedy and got caught before they could walk away. It was always, "This will be the last time," sort of thing then they got caught.
djbrickhaus: I don't gamble.
The Unbeliever: 42
Hendal: no
Wabete: yes
Polgara: no
Hector Vortac: Yes, that's how I lost my thumbs.
ZeroZilla: Nope, don't gamble. Nevertheless, I've looked in on a few such programs, for entertainment purposes only.
DHEK: Hahaha... I've seen those shows, but not to pick up tips. That would be cheating and dishonest. And not to mention that I might just end up in jail if I get caught.
jimv: Never watched for *any* reason
aleo09: no
TheArchAngel: no
JedEvangelion: nope
Eric Haas: I don't gamble.
droolster: good question.
POvidiusNaso: I did, but then I saw Casino and got very attached to my healthy hands.
Ebon Wendigo: Nope, I don't gamble, generally speaking.
rootbeer: No, but I did read a really cool book about some university hippies in the 70's that actually built some computers that they hid in their shoes that predicted (based on physics, with startling accuracy) what number the roulette ball would land on. Anyway, I don't gamble, and I don't watch TV.
MisterCranky: Sure, and after half an hour of watching America's Most Wanted I always go out and con the elderly out of their savings.
yoacusna: No. Don't gamble, don't watch television.
KentuckyKid: No.
joebelanger: Nope.
brainrob: No
Nekura: No. (I don't want to wind up in a hole in the desert.)
Cromaa: Nope
Godeke: No, but I did learn to count cards. Badly.
WatchmanX2000: no
hellsbishop: no
ralpheous: no
BoB3K: No. There is no cheating Vegas or else they wouldn't be in business. Unless you mean actual cheating which is pretty risky as well as wrong.
skrutsch: nope
keldrak: i saw them but probably wouldn't use them
troken: haha, yes
bigbadsteve: cant say that i have
rawdawg: no
jellospike: Yes. I liked it.
LemonyFresh: No
Famous Mortimer: Yes, then no.
Loquutus: yup
Tushratta: No, but I did see a great show on what the house did after they caught the person cheating. It made Texas Chainsaw Massacre seems tame.
Agrajag: Yep
MochaKimono: We don't have Cable.
puffinge: kinda, but I'm not brave enough to actually try that stuff
ZombyDawg: How about a show about counterfeiting hoping to pick up some pointers?
djlg: No
jttm: Fantasy Gaming: Boring.

Great Dane: no
chaddyboy_2000: Nope.
Lord_Prussian: No
CDRodeffer: No
skelebone: Sure not, I'm not much of a gambler, in spite of the Kenny Rogers song.
Spielfreak: nope
