if you just did it in a way to tilt the odds slightly in your favor, went to many different casinos, didn't play very long stretches, etc, the odds of being detected would go down substantially. the play wouldn't resemble that of a card counter.

roulette has to be the best one. guaranteed 35:1 payout on every spin. the hardest part would be using the ability in a way that would cause suspicion.

I thought a bit about the 20 second detail, though.

Say you have a kind of split screen, where youre seeing the future roll out, and youre also seeing the present, with 20s difference.

(and presuming no butterfly effect shit, nor that youre locked into your 20s future activity)

so you see the roulette ball drop into black 17, for example. You now have 20s to respond in the real-time world. That would be enough to shout out "black 17" and place your bet? I bet the ball is loose for at least 5 seconds, so youre down to 15 before the dealer tosses it, no

ive never been inside a casino

they spin the ball around the table and as its spinning people place their bets. when the ball begins to descend the dealer announces "no more bets." i'd get it's about 10 or so seconds before the ball settles after that, but you're right it would be tight.

craps might be an even better game since so many rolls happen. also much easier to manufacture swings in your fortune by intentionally losing but winning big on a few long odds bets.

lol imagine being the guy who yells the right roulette answer a split second before "no more bets".

I think even TWO of these would get you escorted out. Suppose you'd have to fail a few small bets, and then win one BIG one before taking your winnings and dipping.

I dont think you could win twice and expect a peaceful night

Poker

No need to hide the ability, like you would with blackjack, roulette or any other game where you’re playing against the house.

Knowing every card on flops, turn, river alone ahead of time is an insane advantage, even if you didn’t know others cards (which you would close to end of hands).

20 seconds it's nearly enough time to even see the flop in most cases. only really if you're last to act and you see that your 7-2 would be a monster with a 777 flop.

the best use of this ability would be to see if an opponent would snap fold or call you. which over time would probably make you a world class poker player. probably would be a heads up god.

everyone else is thinking about how to mitigate some huge risk and for you that's the ego hit that comes from being rejected by a girl. however you'd still know you'd be rejected with your prescience. so really all you're trying to mitigate is other people knowing you'd be rejected. that's dickless.

real time sports betting would be another good one. you can do prop bets on which player would score next. big payoffs when it's a WR4 that rarely gets the ball, and that happens all the time.

gets into circular time travel trouble, i guess. flaw in the hypo

trying to think this through.

You are contestant A. Contestant B picks a Jeopardy box which reads "This US President farted uncontrollably" or something.

You see that 20 seconds before the hint is seen by the other two contestants. Youre not hearing what someone/you answers and whether they are correct in just 20 seconds, are you? Maybe....

So youre getting valuable info early, but not necessarily the answer. Just longer to think about it, and MAYBE a correct/incorrect answer. Certainly enough to always win over the long haul I guess
