Bookmaker roulette (fruits)

Whilst browsing the web, I came upon a defunct thread on your forum as follows:-

"Posted: Fri Jun 06, 2008 9:51 pm Post subject:
I have 12 trigger numbers for ladbrookes & Jennings FOBM's that is 100% full proof it's not going to make you a millionaire but i,m currently earning £125 per day playing for about 5 hours a day, these numbers cost me over £2K and it took me a while to gain that back but now it's all profit........ it's so nice getting one over on the bookies, i would be willing to give Win one trigger number to prove that it works and their is a betting pattern that you MUST adhere to.. i,m looking to sell these numbers to two more people and would be willing to meet up with my own money to show you it works........ the reason???? looking to start a course and have not got time to build up a big enough bank roll in the time i,ve got to book it.....

This is my first post on here and the only reason I'm making it is in the hope of saving my fellow punters a few quid.
Whatever the screen looks like , whatever you think you're seeing, it isn't roulette it's a fruit like any other.
Differences:- a roulette table has something around a 2.7% edge (cant be arsed to look it up) i.e 97.3 % returned over time to an even money bet. This blight on humanity has around a 91% return (much the same as your local pub one armed bandit) with the proviso "to best possible strategy". I love that one, it means it can return that but doesn't have to.
They came into being in 2004 with a loophole in the "amusement with prizes law" our worthy leaders hmmd and ahhd about it for a bit, considered it a right earner and let the the bookies off the hook.
There can be no system to beat them and "random" is a touch subjective. They are random within the pay out margins, THAT AND NO MORE. I saw some poor sod stick £1200 quid into one of these (they really should be banned) and get sweet sod all for his efforts.
Just to finish up consider what 91% pay out means (its a huge percentage to fight), it means 91% on the first hundred, put the 91 quid back and it will have 9% of that and so on till it's had the shirt off your back.
It's not roulette it's a con.
OK so I'll play a system against it....forget it. They worked that out too. The increments it will allow you to place aren't such that you can do that.
After you reach ten quid it increments in £5 units at a time, it's maximum bet is £100, there is no system on earth that can cope with that, not even the D'alembert..
Write to your MP and get this bookies curse banned, it's a con , it's not even close to a fair bet.
