Casinos ban iPhone card-counting app
You’ve seen it happen in the movies before and someone was bound to create an application for it. Card counting is something quite common gamblers rely on in the casinos, but they can only do it in their mind. The problem though is you can’t use an iPhone to help increase your chance in winning the stakes. Nevada casinos have recently banned an app that allows iPhone users to operate the device in a stealth mode so it can count cards. The app will run when the screen is turned off while the operator taps the screen for a count. When a particular count is reached, meaning the odds are in your favor, the phone will let out a vibration. The recent ban actually increased sales of the popular app.
