Las Vegas Roulette Wheel Stops on Same Number 7 Times in a Row
Are Las Vegas roulette tables rigged? That's the question professional poker player Jeff Romano was asking himself after coming across a table at the Rio All Suite Hotel and Casino that just finished producing an incredible string of seven consecutive landings on Red 19.
The "lucky streak" was preceded by an equally suspicious number of Black 20's, and followed by yet another Red 19 after a quick break for Black 15.
Crunching the numbers, Beyond the Bets estimates that a roulette table will naturally produce seven of the same numbers in a row once every 114 billion spins.
Chances are, this is not natural.
