You, know, I've been concluding that, in general, for many years. People like Redietz just couldn't bear the idea that casinos were a lot bigger than him, whatever mental horsepower he could muster.
Players like to think that they're "under the radar", but, hey, those so-called "stupid casinos", weren't on anybody's "radar" at all. In other words, nothing happened in a casino that wasn't thoroughly engineered or otherwise orchestrated.
P.S. I like your numerals concatenated as 3671014 = 17*2*107971 ---> 17*2*10[6+1]9[1+6]1 ---> 1/(7/2), or 1/(2/7), and, 1961, or 1691.
