Who discovered a “tilted wheel”?
I would nominate him for the Nobel Prize.
The roulette wheel is indeed a sensitive device and even the slightest tilt can have significant effects on its behaviour. A small tilt in the wheel can cause the ball to consistently exit the ball track and land at one specific place on the wheel about 70% of the time. This phenomenon is known as dominant diamond hits.
When analyzing the behaviour of the wheel, we can consider the dominant diamond hits as representing 100% of the observed outcomes. This means that the ball tends to land more frequently at this particular spot due to the wheel’s tilt, and it becomes a critical factor to consider for advantage players seeking to exploit the wheel’s biased behaviour.
Imagine we know exactly which diamond (dominant diamond DD) the ball will hit on each spin. Now, let’s pretend the rotor is not moving. If the ball starts at the 12 o’clock diamond, it will always end up landing on number zero, regardless of whether the dealer spins it strongly or with a shorter spin. The outcome remains the same – the ball consistently hits the 12 o’clock diamond and drops at zero.
Let’s look at what will happen when the wheel moves 1 pocket per second.
The dealer spins the ball which will spin for 20 sec, for that time rotor moves and because it’s so slow it makes only 20 pockets in 20 seconds. If the dealer starts spinning the ball and under DD is number 0, at the end of the spin when the ball hits DD under DD we will have number 24, since number 24 is 20 pockets distanced from zero (CW clock way ball direction).
As you can see the ball because of tilt couldn’t drop at 9, 6 or 3 o clock diamonds which could produce any results. Now our distance in pockets “d” from the start of the spin until the ball drops depends on time “t” that ball spins during the spin, and rotor speed “v” in pockets per second.
d= t x v
For example, a 20-sec long spin and 10 pockets/sec rotor speed will make the rotor move
by 20 x 10=200 pockets.
If we divide it by 37 (amount of pockets) we get that rotor will move by 5.4 rotations, or 5 rotations and 15 pockets. If at the start of spin under DD we have had number 0 when the ball hits DD we would have number 30, which is 15 pockets distanced from number zero.
What if the next spin dealer spins, the same rotor speed but the spin is 20.5 sec long?
It is very important here to understand that if the wheel is not tilted that extra 0.5 sec may be more than one ball rotation, maybe more than 37 pockets change, and that’s why all previously explained about DS would never work.
But on a tilted wheel it is
20.5 x 10 =205
Wooo, only 5 pockets difference compare it to more than 37 pockets if the wheel was levelled.
With levelled wheel we look at all the number of pockets that the ball crosses, with a tilted wheel we look at only pockets the rotor moves.
But there is more, even this will not work and produce enough advantage to win at the casino.
The wheel will never be so tilted that it hits only one diamond, the ball spinning will never be constant, it may be 2-3 sec different which even with reasonably slow rotor speed as in our example makes 30 pockets differences also rotor speed is not constant.
15 or 20-sec long spin is relatively long if the rotor is 1 pocket per second faster it may result in a 15-20 pockets error. Ah, and that ball jumps can’t be forgotten. When we add it all up we get nothing?
Sure this may be simulated at home and proven to work with an old wheel, controlled environment, shorter spins, slower rotor etc, but in today’s casino it will not work.
Twenty years ago when casinos did not know about the tilted wheel effect (many wheels were heavily tilted), when wheels had deep pockets, and when balls were not jumping so much DS did work.
Once when you finish reading this thread and see the player’s chances when he uses more advanced techniques you will understand why all explained until this point has no or it has only a small theoretical chance to work.
Some time ago I made a post
