Default Trying to get caught.

It seems that the best way to make money playing blackjack is to get backroomed and then win a serious settlement.
Anyone hear of anyone setting out to do this?

Default back roomed

I don't know if that would be a good thing where I play since they are on resevations. I don't know how to make pottery or jewelery or even hook rugs so I wouldn't risk it. If a person pulls a stunt like that I would bring my lawyer on the trip just to save time on filing the lawsuit. blackchipjim

No, but this could be a good idea. Make fun of the security staff at a casino when they try to back you off. Say something like "oh look, it's the idiots that couldn't cut it at the police academy!". Just one punch might get you $30k.

Yes there are a few ways to encourage a security guard to tort you. One I discussed on another site is to lean back slightly and hawk up, as if you were going to expectorate in his face. Of course you don't let anything come out, but just the implication is enough to send some guys into a rage.

Use racial and ethnic terminology. Only show deference to the Caucasian security guards.

The simplest is to just run if they approach you. Many of them will instinctively pursue you and tackle you. This will create an impressive spill and pileup on the floor, which of course will result in you being carried out by EMT's.

Do not drink any alcohol at all on a night you're going to do this.

Haha, the ethnic slurs is a really good idea. I mean, not ethically, but from the perspective of getting someone to punch you in the face...

Personally, I try to avoid bodily harm. If you guys are that hard up, sign up for some medical experiments.

Actually, medical experiments offer really good pay. I know a guy that is a professional guinea pig. Gets free meals and stuff, too.

The point is to avoid bodily harm, but make it look like you were harmed.

Having been on both ends of some severe beatdowns,I can honestly say there are a lot worse ways to get rich.

Will any non-Indian casino actually backroom you in this day and age?
