The Ritz-Carlton Roulette Wheel

Britain's royals were regulars, as were Saudi erises and hedge fund tycoons. But the way Tosa and his friends played Roulette stood out as weird even for the Ritz. They would wait until six or seven seconds after the Croupeier launched the ball then jump forward to place their chips before bets were halted. Even with a dozen chips on the table at a total cost of twelve hundred pounds, about twenty-two hundred dollars at the time, they could more than double their money.
