I am new to this forum. This forum has amazing info. Thanks to all for sharing the knowledge and experience.
I have been playing Air Ball roulette at a local casino in Delaware(USA) for the past one month.
The model of the machine is Alfastreet R8 (eight seater).
It has a real mechanical wheel at the center covered by a glass dome. The numbers are separated by gold colored metal rods. The shape of these rods is not cylindrical but diamond.
But the ball doesn't look like a normal ball (light weighted and bouncy) used in the live dealer table.
The ball looks solid and heavy (probably a metal ball coated with white rubber). The ball doesn't bounce that much like live table. It rolls with no or very little bounce.
The ball makes 15-30 spins before loosing the momentum. I have noticed the following three types of insane ball movements after the ball looses the momentum:
1. The ball looses the momentum and drops into the wheel. But the drop doesn't look like a normal drop. Rather it looks like the ball is being sucked into the slot. This occurs 20% of times.
2. The ball looses the momentum and drops into the wheel almost dead. Then, suddenly it picks up momentum and rolls 4 or 5 numbers apart, as if the winning number is pulling the ball magically. This occurs 20% of times.
3. The ball looses the momentum, drops into the wheel, rolls few numbers and literally sits on top of the gold colored metal rod (that separates the numbers) for few seconds before falling into the winning slot. It looks as if the ball tries very hard to climb the metal rod from one side to reach or fall into other side. In the process, it sits on the metal rod for one or two seconds just like a metal piece sticking to a magnet. This occurs 2 or 3% of times.
I don't understand why or how this happens.
Neither I can believe these are rigged because these machines are GLI certified and the casinos are controlled by the state regulations.
Your explanations/opinions are welcome.
