Joseph Jagger The Roulette Winner

By Carl Taylor

While the vast majority of players never make it big playing roulette, every now and then there is somebody who figures it out and makes out like a bandit. One of these players was a man named Joseph Jagger. Joseph Jagger in a short time was over five-million dollars by destroying the Monte Carlo Casino.

Joseph Jagger employed six people to secretly keep taps of the outcomes of the roulette wheels at the Monte Carlo Casino. After years of data collection enough data had been gathered. After looking at the numbers Jagger saw that a specific wheel has an obvious bias towards a few numbers.

One of the wheels had a very strong bias towards the numbers 7, 8, 9, 17, 18, 19, 22, 28, and 29 the ball landed on these numbers far more often than the other numbers on the wheel. So he did what any self respecting gambler would do. Jagger walked right into that casino and robbed it blind.

During July of 1875 Jagger took at seat at the malfunctioning wheel and placed bet after bet on seven. It did not take very long for Jagger to win a large sum of money. Jagger had what every gambler dreams of having, knowledge of where the ball will land.

Jagger kept betting and betting day after day, all on the number seven. Needless to say he didn't stop winning. Things then got worse for the casinos because many gamblers saw what Jagger was up to and also started placing bets on seven.

The casino became desperate. They decided that it was in their best interest to try and trick Jagger. They moved all of the roulette wheels. They hoped that this would fool Jagger into losing some of their money. This only worked for a short amount of time.

But Jagger was one step ahead of the casinos. Before the casinos knew that Jagger was about to make them look like a fool for the rest of history he discreetly scratched the malfunctioning wheel so that he could track it down. Once Jagger had a bad day or two he eyed the wheel and realized that the scratch was missing. He then found the correct table and began to win once more. The casinos then did a complete overhaul and moved the frets on all of the tables on a daily basis.

Jagger soon realized that he would no longer be able to gamble profitably. His prized table had been forever hidden from him. He knew that his run was done and he left the casino with the intentions of never returning. He took over five-million dollars from the Monte Carlo Casino. Jagger is now a roulette icon, a folk hero. Every roulette player dreams of some day replicating his success. Will it be you? Perhaps you shall one day discover a way to game online roulette.
