I am curious if these methods of cloning the strip would even work in the short run, forget about the long run. As soon as someone notices that someone else’s card is reading on the machine, they are going to notify the casino. The first thing the player is going to think of is “how long has it been giving someone else credit for my play”? The casino will immediately investigate and find the issue. And it’s not like they don’t know which card to kill, they have the name right there. Then they are obviously going to check the cameras and know what culprit to trespass. So you would have to use someone where that’s all they would do, they couldn’t be involved in other aspects of the multicard operation.
The only option I can see is in the high limit area. You place the cloned card in several high limit machines, the key would be to stay in the high limit area as people play on those machines. As soon as someone notices there name is not displayed, they will notify the casino. When they walk away, you pull the cloned strip, so when the casino personnel return to investigate they see no issue, and there would be no card to kill. If a person plays $100 per spin for an hour at an 8% theoretical- they leave, you then pull the cloned strip. The massive coin in on reel slots makes it’s a good day.
Maybe it’s one of those things you only need it to work once in a while to be successful.
Overall seems like a tough gig, as well as illegal.
