With a tap of a toe, a microcomputer in the shoe transmitted a voice-synthesised message to a wireless micro-earpiece telling the user of roulette wheel's speed. This could help calculate the next number that would appear.

I'm sorry, but I just don't see how this could work. I hope someone can explain it to me, because right now it sounds like BS.

How would knowing the speed of the wheel help a person know what number might come up next?

It also seems to me that unless shoe power was actually changing the results or manipulating the outcomes, that it shouldn't be against the law. What am I missing?

How about the "Force 7 Anti-Nasal Reinforcer Spray" Factor?

Rumors run rampant about the "pole-cat" capsule.

Didn't NASA even perform an experiment about how long the molecular odor of that animal could exist in a vacuum? Nah, the Pentagon has better use for those Billions, don't they?

Color me insensitive, but I have a very difficult time sympathizing with the gambling industry when it thinks it's getting ripped off.

Hi All-

I can't see how the calculations of the spinning wheel vs. the rolling marble taken into consideration with the dealer point-of-release can be calculated fast enough to have any demonstrable impact on the game.

"the speed of the wheel combined with seeing the release point of the ball could allow a section of the wheel to have a higher chance of hitting. imagine playing roulette and your odds of hitting are twice anybody elses."


It's been decades since I played roulette. Don't all bets have to be placed before the ball is released?

Microchips and the 666 wheel ping.

I don't quite get how the shoe thing works, but when I read the title of this, I got an image of Maxwell from the old TV series "Get Smart" and his shoe phone-LOL.

Now if they could come up with a version of this in a horse shoe, maybe I could win at the races.
