Page 1 (p. 270) - Look at the third line in the paragraph CROOKED DEALING SHOES USED TO CHEAT AT BACCARAT AND CHEMIN DE FER, the line with the words "The secret pocket holds..."

Secret pocket? Since when do dealing shoes have secret pockets?

Are secret pockets the reason Half Peak gets better results against Blackjack and Baccarat at home than in the casinos?



Page 2 (p. 223) - Look at the second paragraph from the bottom, the one that begins "The ball is gaffed with a magnetized steel core in its center."

The word "gaffed" is gambling slang for RIGGED. Yes, friend. Is this your favorite casino he's talking about?

Are magnetic roulette balls the reason Half Peak gets better results against Roulette at home than in the casinos?



Page 3 (p. 183) - Don't let the word "cubes" fool you, Scarne's talking about casino dice, and he says they may contain steel slugs which respond to "an electric magnet built into a Craps table or counter."

Are electric dice the reason Half Peak gets better results against Craps at home than in the casinos?

If you look at your records and see a gaming table is consistently defying the Law of Probability, do you have to see the guy pushing the button to know a button's being pushed?
