Roulette Wheel Lands on 7 Six Consecutive Times

According to Scoblete, a man by the name of Barney Vinson told him about the time a roulette wheel seemed to be stuck on 7.

With 38 possible spaces on the standard double-zero roulette wheel, we can use the equation (38 x 38 x 38 x 38 x 38 x 38) to calculate the odds of such a run in roulette. As it turns out, if Vinson’s report is indeed true, that particular wheel beat odds of 1 in 3 billion..

While working as a gaming instructor at Caesars Palace on the Strip in 2000, Vinson says he watched Table #211 produce a string of spins the likes of which he’s never seen since. Per Vinson’s account to Scoblete, the ball somehow managed to bounce its way to Red 7 an astounding six times in a row

In 1985, Frank Scoblete first set foot inside of a casino not as a gambler, but as a small-time theater actor researching a bit role.

He never left, however, quickly transitioning from the stage to a career as a professional gambler, strategy author, and chronicler of the Las Vegas lifestyle. The author of dozens of books—from Beat the Craps Out of the Casinos to Everything Casino Poker—Scoblete is recognized as one of the industry’s most enduring public voices.
