Get Over It

I was watching an interview of the physicist Neil deGrasse Tyson called “Get Over It”. He’s used that title for a couple of them, like his interview on Pluto. In this one, he was asked if the universe would end in another Big Bang or what?

His answer was that 40 years ago it was a little uncertain but these days we know that’s a “No.” The universe will end, eventually. And that we should, “Get over it.”

Have I mentioned that I’m a physicist? I’m not just a physicist, I’m other things too, but it’s a big part of my training as a research scientist. And have I mentioned that I’m a research scientist?

I was laid off in 2021 during the pandemic along with one-in-three co-workers, none of whom had a Ph.D. oddly enough, from a primary jet engine manufacturer where most recently I was studying the application of artificial intelligence to … well, let’s just say that it had military funding. Anyway, I thought Neil deGrasse Tyson had a good question which applies to slots.

Will Professor Slots cause the end of casinos? And if so, when? Let’s discuss it.

Blackjack Card Counting Ended

In 2008, there was a blockbuster movie called 21. It was based on a book from 2003 called Bringing Down the House: The Inside Story of Six MIT Students Who Took Vegas for Millions.

While being a work of non-fiction, the book had significant fictional elements and was based on the MIT Blackjack Team in 1993. I mention these dates because it tells us how long we have as an outside estimate. Thirty years.

Counting from early 2021 when casinos pretty much killed off successful card counting with infinite card shuffling devices, the clock has started for us. Based on the lifetime of blackjack card counting, it’ll all be over for us with slots around the year 2050. And perhaps sooner. Maybe.

What happened with blackjack card counting was the MIT Blackjack Team found a mathematical approach to winning at blackjack. That’s all there is to card counting. A workable, repeatable strategy.

In blackjack, you see a card being used and know your odds of getting that card again. With a single deck, never. With two decks, only once more.

That’s where it all started. Over the next 30 years, casinos and card counters went back and forth. The MIT Blackjack Team was basically kicked out of Vegas casinos, so they used disguises.

Casinos retaliated by asking for government-issued IDs. The MIT Blackjack Team countered by training others to be card counters. Casinos then added more decks to each table game.

So, the MIT Blackjack Team figured out the math for that, too. Then casinos added surveillance cameras to watch card games and hired card counters to identify patterns of play used by other card counters, like splitting 10s and more. And even more decks were added.

Eventually, after more than 20 years, infinite deck shuffler technology was invented. And that is pretty much the situation we have today: The demise of blackjack card counting.

How Long has It Been so Far?

With this card-counting example, let’s examine if anything like that is happening with slots. First off, card counting existed before the MIT Blackjack Team. And some of my methods, like my 5-spin strategy, is very old.

Get Your FREE Guide Revealing…

How old? I saw it in a Columbo episode from 1975. And there’s a season 1 episode of The Twilight Zone called “The Fever” from 1960 which more or less explains it.

While I didn’t invent the 5-spin method, I have popularized it. It’s my most-watched video on YouTube.

Looking at my 5-spin strategy alone, what effect has it had on casinos? Fans like you have told me that “everyone uses it at my casino”. Many fans have told me this is happening at their casinos.

I don’t know what effect this method has had on casinos because I don’t have access to their finances. It wouldn’t take much for them to feel the hurt. A medium sized casino in Indiana makes 1.8 billion dollars in monthly revenue but typically gives back 90% of it as winnings.

So, their monthly profit before utilities and other bills is 180 million dollars. How much do casinos must lose of that 180 million dollars to be upset? Likely … anything at all.

If they are losing one million dollars a month, around half a percent, they’ll want to know why. And they will want to do something about it. And they can.

They have. They chose to have the 5-spin method at their casino because they used it to manipulate players to spend more month after winning a little bit. But only about one-in-four casinos do this.

I suspect a lot more casinos used this in the 60s and 70s and in later decades. It’s only at one-in-four casinos now. So, their option is to get rid of it.

For the 5-spin method to no longer work like it already doesn’t work at three-out-of-four casinos. Heck, the more popular my 5-spin method videos get, the more likely Las Vegas itself will start getting rid of it. There, just every casino has it.

Their method for removing financial losses is to turn down the odds so nobody wins, to make slot machines “tight” like the differences between the last week of the year and the first week of new year. It was so shocking. They don’t turn off the 5-spin method, because it’s part of their operating system and expensive to change, they just turn down wins until you’re still getting a taste but no longer making a profit.

So, that’s the casino’s out. They have something they are already able to do to combat these losses. Yes, they lose this tried-and-true player manipulation method.

But maybe they investigate some other form of manipulation.

Table Game Expert Explains Slots?

My strategies are based on the casinos attempt to manipulate you. They have a strategy to get your bankroll to which I have designed counterstrategies to take advantage of them instead. But my videos describing them aren’t getting nearly as many views as my 5-spin method, yet. YET!

Oh, and there’s a barrier to my YouTube Channel popularity. Casinos and their colleagues in the slots industry have set this up. Players have been told for years, mostly due to a video from 2009 with over 10 million views, that slot machines are completely random.

That video explaining how slot machines supposedly work was created by a table game expert. After all, having table game expertise means you know how slots work, right? Nope.

A table game expert looked at a slot machine and said, “If it was a table game, how might it work?”

And so, they explained it that way. And for more than 10 years, that was the one educational slots video available. Other table game experts have come out with educational slots videos, but they basically repeated the ideas from that first video.

All of them repeated that first slots video. Until I didn’t. I couldn’t because that video is wrong.

And casinos love this video about how slot machines are full luck-based devices. Why? Because it says you have no control.

Random Means Nothing Matters

Luck-based winning at slots means nothing you do will or can matter. As a physicist, trust me that that’s what luck means. Yet we know strategies matter to slots.

But so many slots players have been told nothing they might do matters. And they believe that, so they don’t try. They don’t bother.

Central to my content is that winning at slots is more than just luck. And you’re reading this because you’ve seen something, a lot of somethings, which don’t match fully luck-based gambling. There are so many things you might have seen!

And so, you went looking for answers. And found me. That’s how I grow. You went looking for me.

And then there are those who didn’t. Slots players clinging tight, sometimes with all their might, to the idea that slot machines are fully luck-based. And those people are being eroded away by others around them who are winning.

Whole casinos winning with the 5-spin method yet non-believers denying it exists. Again, and again, and again. And these are the slots players giving their hard-earned bankrolls to casinos.

But as my popularity increases, as slots players who only think slots are luck-based turn into slots enthusiasts who take advantage of their casinos, casinos will lose money. What might casinos do then?

Summary of Will Professor Slots?

So, you’re learning to win. Well done! But with all your winning, what might casinos do next?
