	   |  BC Casino laws? can you be kicked out for winning too much?  
 
			
			can anyone with more knowledge shed some light on this subject? say IN THEORY a stats genius brought his strategy into a roulette table and constantly cashed out in the thousands on a regular basis. All 100% legit, nothing more than pen paper and himself. Do the casinos have a right to kick this guy out and ban him?

2.  A "stats genius" would never set foot inside a casino, except perhaps for the poker tables.

			yes, you can ban yourself for 6 months, 1 year or 3 years.
 I see customers walking to and from the atm machine all night. I don't know how people can throw their money away like that.

			A stats genius would play craps. It's the closests to 50/50 odds as you'll find in a casino.

 took down which numbers the ball landed on
 then he ran a test and it showed which numbers showed up the most and he would play those numbers all night

			well in the past i played black jack with 3 other guys at river rock.  i played 2 hands and the other 2 guys played 2 or 3 hands.  it was like 4 am when it wasn't busy
 i was winning about 400 and the other 2 were winning like 2000 each.
 
 
 the cards were totally in favor of us and we played long enough that we start to see a pattern from the cards that were dealt from the machine.
 
 every 10 hands i would get a pair of aces and i would split but i would always get Ace 9 and Ace 8.   it was weired cuz it seems like the card was repeating itself after so many hands.
 
 the manager was called up and told us to move table as they have to close it without any good reason.
 
 so if they see that you table is doing better than the house is, then would close it.

			they wont kick u out for losing too much but if your family doesn't want you to gamble i believe your family can ask the casino to blacklist you, but i think you gotta do this voluntarily as well cause you gotta take some mug shots.  then every time they see you step foot in the casino they'll kick you out.
