Caesars LV had a drawing. Tickets based on amount of gambling.
Had an awesome dinner where tickets were drawn. Big entrance by Cleopatra and her entourage.
Think it was invitational only. They had NSUD at $1 and above.
Cleopatra picked out the tickets. She would look in the barrel for the tickets that were orgami'd into an airplane. Kind of looked like the space shuttle. Too obvious. Wife was so pissed.
I told her to keep a low profile as she did well on the VP.
It was ~10 years ago. Didn't go to anymore drawings as that's about when they shut us off.
Seen other blantant cheating. It would be a good thread. When you calculate the E.V. of a drawing/tournament have to take that into account. Is that deduction or induction or reduction?

When your name was called you went up to the booth and picked up your envolope of money-then you were required to reach into the drum and pull a ticket for the next winner.

The cheat went something like this. I'll call the cheaters Larry, Curly and Moe. Whichever got his name called first the other two names would be called behind him.
