Learning the secrets of a casino from the perspective of R. Paul Wilson: Part 1 of 3
In the world of gambling, there's a hidden realm where the odds are often skewed in favour of the hustler. This series, titled "Dice Hustle," takes a deep dive into these games, and this week, we're focusing on Dice Hustle #3 - Aces Wild.
Dice Hustle #3 can be played with either poker dice or playing card dice, making it less obvious for the unsuspecting gambler. The unique twist in this game is that aces are wild, meaning they can represent any number from one to six. This seemingly small change significantly alters the game's dynamics, making three of a kind more likely than a pair.
The goal in Dice Hustle #3 is to win with any pair, but lose with any three of a kind. If you manage to roll three aces, for instance, you'd lose the bet. The host, however, can win more often than they lose, making it a potentially profitable proposition.
But how does the host achieve this edge? The secret is revealed after winning a proposition bet, as it is part of the price of losing. Unfortunately, specific details about the secret are not disclosed in this article.
Dice Hustle #3 is just one game in this series. Previously, we explored Dice Hustle #1 - SixAnd Four Before, where the proposition is to roll a six and an eight before rolling two sevens. The odds against the player are almost two to one, setting them up for a (minor) financial fall, especially when they fall into the false logic that most people do.
In Dice Hustle #2 - Add Up To Seven, the goal is to add up to seven with three dice. The hustle lies in the fact that the hustler can secretly manipulate the dice to ensure they always add up to seven. After a few rounds, players will realise that three of a kinds happen almost twice as often as pairs.
The next article in the series, "Be Your Own Casino," will delve into a mathematical principle that can turn the flip of a few coins into a winning proposition for the house. The series takes a different approach, putting itself in the house's position of playing with an edge against anyone curious enough to accept a seemingly simple proposition.
Remember, when it comes to Dice Hustle, the key is to keep the rules clear and any apparent advantage hidden or far from obvious. Carry a few dice in your pocket, and you'll find no end of gamblers interested in playing a seemingly fair game. But beware, over time, anyone is sure to wake up to getting fleeced in Dice Hustle.
