Everyone who walks through the doors of a casino is in an optimistic state of mind. The promise that they can walk out a winner. However, most gamblers walk out losers since every game is mathematically designed with a house edge. The following people knew this and were determined to rectify the situation. Number 10: Richard Jareck On a warm night in May of 1969, a mob of awestruck gamblers crowded around a well-worn roulette table in the Italian Riviera. At the center stood a gangly 38-year-old medical professor in a rumpled suit. He’d just placed a $100,000 bet (about million dollars in todays money) on a single spin of the wheel. As the croupier unleashed the little white ball, the room went silent. He couldn’t possibly be this lucky… could he? In 1964, Jareck made his first strike. After establishing which wheels were biased, he secured a £25,000 loan from a Swiss financier and spent 6 months candidly exacting his strategy. By the end of the run, he’d netted £625,000 (roughly $6,700,000 today). Jarecki’s victories made headlines in newspapers all over the world, from Kansas to Australia. Everyone wanted his “secret” — but he knew that he’d have to conceal his true methodology if he wanted to replicate the feat. Eight months later he returned, winning $192,000 ($1,400,000) in a single weekend, and breaking the bank (depleting the casino’s on-hand cash) at two different wheels twice in one night. Teetering on bankruptcy, the casino owner had no option but to issue Jarecki a 15-day ban… for “being too good.” All told, Jarecki made a reported $1,250,000 ($8,000,000 today) placing hefty bets on biased roulette tables between 1964 and 1969. Number 9: Louis B. Colavecchio  Born January 1, 1942 – July 6, 2020, Louis B. Colavecchio, Louis B. Colavecchio was an American casino counterfeiter known as "The Coin." While residing in Rhode Island, Colavecchio defrauded several Atlantic City and Connecticut casinos until his arrest and initial conviction in 1998.  He had led a gang that fabricated numerous slot machine coins using hardened steel dies of the originals and was revealed when casinos began to notice a surplus of coins on their gaming floors. Sentenced to seven years, Colavecchio was released in 2006.  He was arrested by the FBI only a few months later after having resumed his activities, and released on a $25,000 surety bond. His counterfeiting equipment was auctioned off on eBay following his arrest. Due to his crime's initial success, casinos have slowly phased out tokens, replacing them with paper vouchers Number 8: Ronald Dale Harris  Ronald Dale Harris is a computer programmer who worked for the Nevada Gaming Control Board in the early 1990s and was responsible for finding flaws and gaffes in software that runs computerized casino games. Harris took advantage of his expertise, reputation, and access to source code to illegally modify certain slot machines to pay out large sums of money when a specific sequence and number of coins were inserted.  From 1993 to 1995, Harris and an accomplice stole thousands of dollars from Las Vegas casinos, accomplishing one of the most successful and undetected scams in casino history Number 7: Dominic LoRiggio  Dominic LoRiggio has two nicknames: The Dominator and The Man with the Golden Arm. Dominic LoRiggio is a modern gambler with a particular specialty in Craps. He spent hours learning how to control and shoot the dice on the Craps table.  It is a technique to make sure you get the role you want. The concept requires you to hold the dice in a certain way Number 6: Ron Harris In January 1995, Reid Errol McNeal defied roughly 1 million to 1 odds and hit a monster keno jackpot of $100,000 at Bally's Park Place Casino Resort in Atlantic City, New Jersey. What aroused officials' suspicion was that he showed very little emotion, did not have identification on him, and asked to be paid in cash. New Jersey law requires jackpots of over $35,000 to be verified by state gaming officials, and when they arrived at the casino, they went up to McNeal's hotel room with two state troopers. There they also found Ron Harris, who said he was a friend of McNeal. When McNeal went downstairs with the officials to answer questions, he told them that Harris was a computer technician for the Nevada Gaming Control Board, which regulates gaming in Las Vegas Number 5: Keith Taft Taft was a real-life Inspector Gadget. He was a legitimate electronics genius who devoted roughly 30 years to developing devices that defeated the casino. With his son Marty, he began his tinkering in the 70s and is considered one of the first to create a computer to capture digital video and a microcomputer For copyright matters please contact us at "theimpressiveinc@gmail.com"
