Bubble Craps

[Travis McGee]

AxelWolf, you are correct in that they can adjust the "RNG" to determine the desired hold for each particular casino. They do this for most slot machines, including VP on a regular basis, sometimes weekly. At more modern casinos, like Aria they can do it remotely from behind closed doors, whereas older casinos like downtown, Palms or Santa Fe Station you will see them changing the motherboards periodically like on Thursday or Friday morning before the California weekend crowds come

An astute player could never be fooled. They can't change the payback of a video poker without changing the payscale. I personally have never seen video poker payscales change according to the day of the week but maybe someone else has. I've never seen payscale changes from day to day reported on any of the gambling sites.

The Bubble Craps must have payscales on them too so no astute player could be fooled.

mickeycrimm, I am sorry that my post was not more clear. Stated Payback tables on VP and odds payouts on craps are not necessarily the only way to increase the casino hold. That is not what I was referring to. Let's see how the casino increases casino profit without touching payscales or odds on the machine craps:

Player A bets $5 on the Come
Player B bets $5 on the Don't Come
Player C bets $110 inside
Player D is rolling and has $5 on the Pass Line Point of 5 and 2x odds of $10
Player E bets $18 Across
Player F bets $1 each Hardways and $1 Field

Ellis Island Casino:
Roll 1 = 5 (Point Established)
Roll 2 = 2
Roll 3 = 7 out

Red Rock Casino:
Roll 1 = 5 (Point Established)
Roll 2 = 2
Roll 3 = 4
Roll 4 = 5 (Point made)
Roll 5 = 11 Comeout winner
Roll 6 = 8 (Point Established)
Roll 7 = 7 out

Ellis Island had a tighter slot machine or increased hold for the casino than Red Rock without changing the payscales, but simply by adjusting the pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) algorithm (quicker 7 out or whatever to get higher profit).

Furthermore, in effect you are not only playing against the computer but every player sitting around the machine since everyones accumulated bets go into the computer algorithm. Hence, you do not want to be the high roller in most cases.

One day I am sitting on the Bally's bubble craps enjoying a hot run by another shooter but everyone is betting small amounts across or inside except this Come bettor next to me. He kept the roll going because he was making flat $25 Come bets, but every other roll was a crap number giving profit back to the casino. I thought I would be cute and bet $10 every roll on the Horn. Wrong, 7 out after 2 rolls because I had taken away the avenue for the casino to make a profit on a long roll.

Also, once you adjust RNG, it is no longer Random or (RNG) but instead a pseudorandom number generator (PRNG), aka deterministic random bit generator (DRBG). It appears to be random with all the fancy charts but instead includes a sophisticated algorithm that calculates casino profit as it's primary goal.
