How to Win at Craps: Interview with the World's Greatest Dice Control Shooter! • The Jackpot Gents

Last year I was in Vegas, my return flight got canceled, so I had to stay another night in Vegas. I tried to find a cheap room, ended up staying at Sahara Casino hotel. I went to the craps table that night, after about 15 minutes of playing a guy showed up. He had a dice control out of this world !! He didn't throw 7 for about 1 hour. He made like $20k, I made $8k, all people made thousands of dollars at that table. It was crazy !!!

[@creativity.studio4967]

There's a story that Phil Ivey told about a 3 hour dice session without sevening out!

[@donaldmankow]

I was a supervisor on the 4 hour roll at Borgata. The shooter sadly only made a pittance. But the majority of other people left winning thousands if not tens of thousands. It was a low limit table. People who would actually bet to win weren't there. Instead of more people coming up to the table mid roll. One of the dealers was new and inexperienced. Six players were allowed on each side. That's it. The experienced players wanted to come join in, but sorry, the table is full. There is not the ability to stand next to the stick every time, you're not allowed to switch spots to shoot the dice. As long as you HIT THE WALL, you're more than welcome to shoot for as long as you can. Hit the wall, and NO MOOCHING. If you want to give another player money for a good shot, good for you, good for him/her. But to make the dealers work the whole time, and not give them ANYTHING, is a joke. Tipping the dealers GOES TO THE DEALERS(NOT THE HOUSE) Dealers are there to help make the gaming experience ENJOYABLE. Dealers make their living on tips, and WANT YOU TO WIN. like a waitress or a bartender. To be so ignorant as to say "I'll tip when I'm done" would be similar to expect a waitress to see if you need another drink,without tipping her is a joke. Drinks are usually free, so making a waitress get your drinks and bring them to the table without even recognizing that is simply ignorant. MY OPINION ONLY, but being in the casino business for over 35 years, I know more than this person selling his formula. But, good for him, and good for you if you can take hints from this, but NOT CARE about the people(dealers) booking your bets, paying your bets while making sure your bets are paid ACCURATELY and not take care of them, shows a selfish inconsiderate mentality. Simply an opinion from someone who is in facebook jail for his 32nd 30 day sentence, for having an opinion...

[@ratataran]

@@donaldmankow all the dealers split the tips, so you tip $5, they get maybe a few cents.

[@dirkmantele5095]

I've been following this method for several years and can say you don't win all the time, but, I've had some serious rolls. One night a man at the table was a Don't player and the first hour or so was terrible - 7 every 3 or 4 rolls, sometimes 2 rolls and this jerk kept howling "I'm winning and you're not" and kept getting loud whenever someone was trying to setup, like a shill trying to keep you off balance. It was a packed table, so took time to move the dice back around to me and it usually takes 3 or 4 hands before I get the feel, so finally it's my 4th hand that session and I zoned in on it - 56 rolls later - crushed all 6 numbers over and over. The don't bettor kept saying its nothing but luck while is bankroll dwindled to nothing while the rest of us were screaming and howling - hit the all-tall-small twice in the same hand and left a happy camper. The Dom is my craps hero - My seven out ratio runs about 8 to 10, but have pulled plenty of 25+ rolls. I'm a local Las Vegas guy retired and fly low and slow...

Great interview with Dominic LoRiggio! His views on dice got me started. My best roll betting on a FireBet was 5 Points ( total of 11 points that were not different). I started with $22 in hand at the start of my roll. I had $10 Pass, $5 FireBet, $5 Field, and $1Pass - $1 FireBet on the Dealers. 90 minutes later I hit the 5th FireBet at 3:45 AM. I made less than $1K. After watching this Video - I would have made $20K+. Thanks you guys.

[@nastynate7913]

How is what you say true? The Place bets have a 1.5% edge on the 6/8. Dom clearly explains in the interview how a Come bet with even just 1X Odds has a house edge of just 0.84%.

Would like to thank the " Dom", it was the first time using the grip and tips he talked about in a video. I usually pass on being a shooter, but using his tips for the first time resulted in my longest throw ever!, ( about half an hour ). It felt great making some money, especially for the other players, the guy next to me kept fist bumping me after every roll, making point!, thanks again Dom

[@AndrewAbeles]

When playing craps on a cruise ship, does the fact that the ship is floating on the water and could cause the table to roll and therefor affect the dice/shooter?

[@buckeyeslim6177]

Without having shit on a cruise, I would assume it does. I would still use a controlled throw just to decrease the effect of being in a moving ship.

[@rheath1967]

The short answer, yes, however it is not a uniform thing and mostly not because the table is moving. Remember, the table really does not move that much... it is the entire ship or the shooter that is moving and the table is much more stable than a shooter due to mass and the fact it is not balanced on 2 legs. By "not uniform" I mean it depends on certain factors, for instance the larger the ship the less the wave action moves the ship, or more likely moves the shooter as opposed to the smaller day cruise ships. Put another way, imagine trying to shoot with people bumping into you (which happens during waves on smaller ships but mostly it is the shooter swaying because of the wave action on the day cruises).

[@maxkelter3561]

It seems to me nowadays most people who go to Casinos have some kinda system they imploy trying to beat the odds? It fun to try to increase you odds even on all games which affects your comps. Enjoyed the interview. Dom was convinced!

If it isn’t the Dice Dominator! I was waiting for this crossover! It’s important to note one of the core tenets of dice control: marginally reducing the amount of 7s that are rolled is mathematically enough to reduce and/or overcome the house advantage.

[@geekin3159]

Hey Sumthang678, The concept of " marginally reducing the amount of 7s that are rolled is mathematically enough to reduce and/or overcome the house advantage" is sound. However, overcoming all of the variables that determine what number will be rolled is impossible thereby rendering the concept wishful thinking.

[@dragonore2009]

Speaking of dice control, there is a slot machine I play on that let's you control the spin during the bonus. Normally you click a button and the RNG has already preselected something for you before the spin stops (usually small of course), but this particular slot machine you controlled the spinner. I won a cool $1000 from it.

[@dynjarren8355]

This is perfectly legal and not cheating. The roller controls the dice and if he or she can roll without rolling a Seven frequently is a skill they developed. The Casinos have no right to complain or say it’s cheating because it’s not. It’s skill! But of course they are going to ban him because he beats them consistently. I think it makes them look petty and bad. If you have plenty of gamblers losing money regularly, why can’t they tolerate one winner? They don’t want anyone to win? Ever? Then no one should play either! He figured out how to win so they should be quiet. And take their losses. They have more than enough people losing regularly to cover one winner. I commend him! The Casinos should have more class and respect winners. Not ban them.

[@healthsignalllc3456]

Awesome work guys. Interesting, educational and entertaining. Thank you!👍👏

[@jeff13148]

I'm a believer! I started to learn craps about 15 years ago after reading 3 or 4 books. I believe in setting because I just paid attention to all the successful shooters and noticed over time that most set the dice and pretty much did the same thing over snd over again. And like Dom said, didn't just chuck them down to the other end slamming into stacks of chips. It's just a better way to roll the dice and it has helped my game enormously. I didn't learn this from anyone, just my own observation over the years. But everything Dom said rang true! My tip, like Dom said, don't play the center bets! They will eat you up over time. Playing craps is the most fun you can have in a casino! And thank you to ACG for all the great videos!

[@razorbacks1983]

I agree

[@buckeyeslim6177]

I agree...except for one thing. DO play the center (prop) bets. Just DON'T play them using your money (that you brought with you). Win some money and once you've made a "comfortable" profit, take a FEW chances on the prop bets. WHEN they hit, and they WILL hit, the payout is worth the extra investment out of your winnings. I wouldn't suggest going crazy on them, but a $4 Horn or a $1 Hard Way every once in a while when you're already $200+ in profit won't hurt you.

Dom wasn’t the only one highlighted on the history channel who didn’t cheat. They did episodes on Ken Uston and Tommy Hyland as well.

[@youdecide2696]

My second watch of this interview, valuable info imo. The alligator skin randomizes the dice and casinos do not care about the dice being set. That is the answer I have gotten when asking. My belief is the random dice rotation can be controlled with dice setting. I know some casinos do not allow dice setting and they must have a reason for it. Matt really broke down all aspects of craps, maybe a live craps video is in the future? Sorry to see there will no longer be an ACG book, I appreciate all the great deals I had found in your book through the years. I will download the app instead.

[@matt24ishere69]

if theres a casino that doesnt allow dice setting its because its a waste of time .

[@moon1003]

How can you throw against the flat part of the back wall if the wall is really curved? I’ve noticed that every table I’ve seen at a casino has a curve in the back wall if shooting down the “runway” of the pass line. You would almost need to reach your arm out to the come area to have a perpendicular shot at the flat part of the back wall. But that would cause your body to be out of position. Any suggestions or tips?

[@mrperson6963]

learning the game of craps, had some good random rolling and tried this and have had some good success. seems like the rolls are a little longer and more frequent. with less point 7's .physically and mathematically it makes sense. great video!

[@mr.e1944]

Good interview. Very interesting.

[@geekin3159]

After watching a few videos about dice control, I have come to the conclusion that individuals who endorse dice control have no comprehension of the concept of randomness. My comments on dice control hopefully will provide an understanding that dice control is not improbable but impossible. Some individuals stress the importance of maintaining the same axis on the dice when tossing them. It does not matter whether or not the same axis is maintained. There are so many other variables to consider in the toss: -how much force is used -how high the dice are tossed -where the dice strike the table before contacting the back wall -where the dice strike the back wall -which pyramid and which part of the pyramid each die strikes -where each die comes to rest -how many bounces and turns each die completes before coming to rest -how many chips the dice encounter -how firm/soft/bouncy is the table -etc. If a player is unable to control just one of these variables, he will be unable to practise dice control. In an attempt to convince others of the possibility of dice control, I would like to see just one proponent of dice control to create a video recorded in slow motion which documents the action of the dice on each toss I.e. record the results relating to all of the variables mentioned above I have a suggestion. Use two different coloured dice, one red and one green. Let’s make it even easier. Assume that on each toss, the red always shows a five. Now the shooter simply has to control the green die and have it show any number other than a two to avoid the dreaded seven out. Conduct this experiment over many thousands of rolls to more closely simulate results due to probability and graph how often the seven appears. If a sufficient number of rolls are made, then the seven should appear in the ratio of once every six rolls. If the ratio is much less than 1:6 a player may insist that he is controlling the dice. However, remember in the example the red die is already fixed (controlled) by setting it on the five. In the videos posted on line, there are an insufficient number of rolls to describe any longer roll to be dice controlled. I have watched videos in which after the creator of the video sevens out, he tries to explain the seven by claiming he did something wrong on the toss. Truly moronic behaviour. Remember Patricia Demauro? In May 2009 the grandmother played at the Borgota in Atlantic City and rolled the dice 154 times (over four hours) to set the record for the longest roll. Was she controlling the dice? No!!! This was only her second time to shoot craps. There will be short rolls and there will be long rolls. No one can predict whether a roll will be short or long. Only Lady Luck knows. Proponents of dice control are delusional!

[@geekin3159]

@Walliam Shitner Walliam, I don't understand what you are trying to say in your final sentence. Please elaborate. Thanks

[@geekin3159]

@Walliam Shitner Walliam, no need to encourage me since I know that I am right. I am hopeful that my postings will enlighten newbies especially and others who are easily misled and to induce them to analyze more critically the absurd claims made by wannabe "controllers." If they digest my comments about the many variables that affect the outcome of dice tosses, they hopefully will realize that dice control is IMPOSSIBLE and that claims uttered by "controllers" are made without any sensible, logical, believable, data to substantiate their claims. By the way Walliam, you did not attempt to address the questions that I posed to you about your fantastic feat i.e. where and when you accomplished the three incredible rolls of 500 plus I know that such an accomplishment would have been documented. I am sure that other "controllers" would love to know your secret! Surely you could assist them in improving their own skills. I really don't expect you to reply to my queries; imagine if you couldn't substantiate your claims how your credibility would be shattered. On the other hand, if you did respond and substantiated your claims imagine how your status would be elevated and the adulation you'd earn for yourself! You'd be more renowned that Patricia Demauro! Walliam, I will continue in my efforts to make "Walliam Shitner" a household name.

[@buckeyeslim6177]

The first time I ever heard anything about dice control was when I saw the History Channel Breaking Vegas video about Dom (on KZbin). CHANGED MY LIFE!! I have become a 10x better craps player since then. Months of study and over a year of daily practice for hours at a time have helped me develop an amazing throw that has shown me better results than any I've seen (in person) so far! Learning to shoot in a way that extends my rolls has not only improved my game, it has improved my focus and discipline in ALMOST every aspect of my life. It reminds me of when I played sports when I was younger. The desire to get better each day has relit the fires of ambition and determination in me that had previously reduced to smoldering embers. I'm so grateful that I can't across his video shortly after I started learning craps strategies and playing the game again. I will continue to improve until I make as much of an impact on the fraud community as he has. ✊🏾😎

For the ppl who don't get it it's not dice control. Instead it's seeking to successfully reduce the built in pure randomness element (Highly Profitable for the Casino. Seeing how they have the number 7 with the most possible combinations covered. Which has the highest odds of being rolled after the Comeout or the Point is established. If we are dealing in terms of pure randomn rolls or pure luck or chance. Which is the exact way the house wants dummies to roll the dice. For painfully obvious reasons. Now for example if one is using the hardway set with 5's on top & 3's facing the back wall 2's on the bottom & 4's facing you or the non shooting end opposite back wall. And you are using this same dice set up. Fingers in same location & pressure. Same landing zone practice & actual Casino table Experience. And you notice after a while a pattern of. Let's say hard 6 being the most frequent hardway number that you roll. Out of all the other hardways on the set or period. Or you notice a pattern of the 6 coming hard (3,3) about 50% of the time on average compared to the soft 6. You mean to tell me one can't come up with a strategy to capitalize off of this info or pattern? That's note not occurring randomly at all. Or for example one notices that most of the numbers being rolled (The current Pattern/Patterns.) With that hardway dice set up. Is the inside box numbers. With maybe 1 or a couple 4's & 10's being rolled. So one can't use this Non completely random info. To now mainly only bet the inside numbers? Once again it's not dice control it's successfully seeking to reduce the built in Completely random element. That is profitable to the house & not the players. AKA making bets not completely in the dark or BASED off completely random rolls & dice set ups. Ppl also always forget basic facts such as. If a human mind or minds thought it up. Then a human mind or minds can also find the cracks or human manmade flaws that are sure to exist within the manmade developed system. We talking about a imperfect being in regards to the developers of Casino craps & the Players. Yet folks talking like they playing against God or something. The house has already psychologically defeated you.

[@virgilio1956]

what you really want to do is get those dice as close to back wall as low as possible without rebounding , the pit bosses will yell at you to hit the back wall. The back wall with that corrugated surface will put a random finish on roll of dice. You can also get away with flopping the dice short a few times, and get hard ways. Everyone will yell at table, and will riot if pit boss tries to take that roll away from you. They kept yelling "hit the back wall Jack". Someone called me and I said my name. It wasn't Jack. Pit boss said no wonder you aren't hitting the back wall, your name isn't Jack !

[@TheJackpotGents]

The odds of getting dealt a four-of-a-kind are the same in both games. As far as drawing to four-of-a-kind, I would assume that you get them less often in deuces wild because in many hands you are holding a deuce, along with the pair, or three-of-a-kind that you are drawing to.

Many hours of work and dedication is involved.

[@knuckle12356]

Haha, funny you mentioned Shaq. Years back, an engineering professor I was taking some review classes from told a story about a statistician friend of hers. He noticed that Shaq, while holding a low free-throw % overall, had discernible patterns for hot/cold streaks, uncovered by whatever analysis method he used. So the stats prof would follow the games, and when it looked like Shaq was due for an upswing, dude would bet heavy, and clean up on the long odds thanks to the season or lifetime simple % being low. Apparently made him quite a bit of money.

I think everyone has a tendency to land certain numbers. Maybe it’s some type of mystical connection to a force higher. Or it’s some type of kinetic synergy.

So when I roll a point I get internally worried cause I know I personally have a higher chance to hit 7 cause I typically roll 7 a lot for whatever reason.

How pit bosses look at you dealers etc. ... I haven’t seen dominator roll when he was in NC I’d like to see. Emptying a fill 6 times depending where he’s playing is close to 3/5 mil. I’ve been in Patricias shoes. Bogata loves advertising the 4 hr roll but they only give out 30 k to the highest player r u kidding me... That 🤮

Has anyone seen the dice move in slow motion? They scramble around like eggs once they hit the table.

[@Lsntobillhicks]

Lots of superstition in gambling. Just let them set their dice. ;)

No they dont. The scramble like eggs after the hit the alligator wall. Someone on here has posted a super slow motion toss. It is on youtube.

Hey Dom, I will state right from the outset that I am a skeptic of anyone claiming to be able to control the dice. Below I will offer some of my own thoughts regarding the concept of dice control. First I'd like you to explain what you mean when you talk about the 45 degree angle of your dice trajectory. You mention the apex of the arc but you do not clarify to which point you are joining the apex to form the 45 degree angle. It would appear that this would be another variable among the multitude of variables some of which I mention below which affect the outcome of the dice roll. You cannot duplicate the arc that your dice would follow on each roll; therefore, the position of your 45 degree angle would fluctuate. After watching a few videos about dice control, I have come to the conclusion that individuals who endorse dice control have no comprehension of the concept of randomness or refuse to acknowledge the significance of randomness. My comments on dice control hopefully will provide an understanding that dice control is not improbable but impossible. Some individuals stress the importance of maintaining the same axis on the dice when tossing them. It does not matter whether or not the same axis is maintained. There are so many other variables to consider in the toss. Here are just a few of the variables: -how much force is used -how high the dice are tossed -where the dice strike the table before contacting the back wall -where the dice strike the back wall -which pyramid on the alligator wall and which part of the pyramid each die strikes -where each die comes to rest -how many bounces and turns each die completes before coming to rest -how many chips the dice encounter -how firm/soft/bouncy is the table -etc. If a player is unable to control just one of these variables, he will be unable to practise dice control. In an attempt to convince others of the possibility of dice control, I would like to see just one proponent of dice control to create a video recorded in slow motion which documents the action of the dice on each toss i.e. record the results relating to all of the variables mentioned above. I have a suggestion. Use two different coloured dice, one red and one green. Let’s make it even easier. Assume that on each toss, the red always shows a five. Now the shooter simply has to control the green die and have it show any number other than a two to avoid the dreaded seven out. Conduct this experiment over many thousands of rolls to more closely simulate results due to probability and graph how often the seven appears. The sample size of the number of tosses must be sufficiently large to render the test reliable. If a sufficient number of rolls are made, then the seven should appear in the ratio of once every six rolls. If the ratio is much less than 1:6 a player may insist that he is controlling the dice. However, remember in the example the red die is already fixed (controlled) by setting it on the five. I have watched videos in which after the creator of the video sevens out, he tries to explain the seven by claiming he did something wrong on the toss. Truly moronic behaviour. Remember Patricia Demauro? In May 2009 the grandmother played at the Borgota in Atlantic City and rolled the dice 154 times (over four hours) to set the record for the longest roll. Was she controlling the dice? No!!! This was only her second time to shoot craps. There will be short rolls and there will be long rolls. No one can predict whether a roll will be short or long. Lady Luck is your friend and only she determines how successful/unsuccessful a player's roll will be. Dom, I would welcome a response from you or any other viewers in which you address my thoughts on controlling variables which affect the outcome of a roll of the dice.

@Walliam Shitner Walliam, I really enjoyed reading your reply. It made me laugh! Many individuals who post replies are grammatically challenged and unable to articulate their ideas coherently. It is often difficult (even IMPOSSIBLE, here's that word again) to determine the point that they are attempting to convey. Me delusional? Hardly! I'm as sane as all of the patients in "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest." LOL (right back at you)! I do not dread ending up in a nuthouse. Someone would have to achieve the IMPOSSIBLE and prove me wrong to achieve that end. Walliam, did you read my comment about Patricia Demauro who is credited with having the longest roll on record - 154 over four plus hours? Your bests of 550, 521, and 514 rolls are over three times longer than Patricia's. Did you roll for over twelve hours to accomplish these heights? Were there any others playing with you? Where did you accomplish these feats? Surely your accomplishments would have been documented somewhere! Is anyone out there aware of your monster rolls? I'd like to know the whole story. Please enlighten the rest of the craps world; this is fascinating! How can one actually hope to disguise the techniques that you employ to succeed as you claim? Finally, what do you mean by the words "another algorithm to ferret out and red flag an unusual statistic?" Can you clarify precisely in detail what you mean by this so that there is no doubt in any reader's mind what it is exactly that you are attempting to say? Looking forward to hearing back from you.

[@geekin3159]

@Walliam Shitner Hey William, Thanks for responding. The tone in parts of your reply indicates clearly that I managed to touch a nerve. I love it! I'm very disappointed that you did not bother to answer the questions that I posed to you in my last posting. Your reluctance to answer the questions suggests to me that you are afraid to name the casino where you accomplished your incredible feats of magic, give the dates, etc. because you knows that these things can be documented. If your claims proved to be untrue (even merely exaggerated), what would that do to your credibility! Anyone can make outlandish claims if he doesn't have to substantiate them. By substantiating the claims that you utter you will only enhance your status in the gambling world especially among craps players. By refusing to provide details (as I requested), others will conclude that you are simply blowing smoke. A common response from individuals like you is, "I don't care!" You know this is such a copout! I am sure that others including Dom would love an opportunity to chat with you and learn from you some tips which would improve their game. Can you imagine giving tips to the Dominator! You might even elevate your status to GOAT of Craps just as Chris Mitchell did for himself in Roulette. Walliam, check out Mitchell for a good laugh! I love you guys who entertain me with your humour!

If you hit the back wall EACH AND EVERY ROLL with the dice, you cannot control them. That’s a fact. If you aren’t hitting the back wall, you’re cheating. I’ve literally seen millions of rolls in my many years dealing and supervising craps at all levels, and dice control is a myth. You can cut down the edge by playing properly, but this is nonsense. I’m glad he’s making a living with his classes.

Electronic craps tables are casinos' latest tool to deter effective dice setting. Now the tabletops are hard sections of plastic with seams at different levels that result in bouncing dies going in every direction.

Playing the side bets Make em all, all Small, and all Tall, I throw out a $5 and a $1 chip and bet $2 on each end one in the middle and a buck for the dealers on their end of choice. One night doing this, the next night, a dealer told me I had made them like $180 tip to share up, just by myself. Plus when you tip, the other players tip too. No one was tipping to speak of. My tipping broke the ice. More often than occasionally I can miss that back wall and they let it slide. lets just say, They seem to be a little more forgiving of infractions.

long as you don't roll sevens, then you are potentially winning. Unless you are a dark side player. I'm sure you can spin the dice to increase your chances (negate some of the house edge) but if it was easy, everyone would be doing it. Good interview with a professional gambler. To be honest, it is the same as any craps betting system in that it doesn't work 100% of the time.

In their "Argument" of when the Casino identifies a card counter or set dice roller. What they did not mention is the Card counter gets noticed by the style of the betting. In order for them to make the system work they have to increase their bets when the count is in their favor, If you are betting $25 a hand for 2 hours it's not going to benefit you card counting. You have to increase your bet to say $100 or $200 to make it work. That's the big tell tale!

I'm still trying to understand the Come bet thing.

[@CSLintheCASINO]

DICE CONTROL QUESTION: My ultimate question regarding dice control/influencing is: • If the first & primary goal of the dice control throw is to maintain the same axis, Then what’s the difference between the dice going off axis after hitting the table/back wall verses shortly after leaving the shooter’s hand? Answer: There is no difference. It’s a random roll regardless of WHEN they go off axis. I believe dice control is theoretically possible, but there are too many variables for it to actually happen. The question above encapsulates why a shooter can’t have the dice flip, twist and turn in virtually countless ways after hitting the table, yet it’s somehow a controlled roll because the toss was on axis. Somehow the roll counts toward their “seven ratio” as if the dice were supposed to do all that. The dice have changed axis multiple times before coming to a rest, none of which was intended by the shooter.

[@howellwong11]

The dice have to hit the back wall, so it is pretty difficult to control the roll. I don't believe that the roll can be controlled.

[@daddyphatsax88]

it would be scientifically impossible to even get an accurate control throw due to the random nature of dice... then you figure in the the gator felt and arm swing angle jitter (for lack of better terms) the ability to control the dice becomes exponentially more difficult. The only real advantage that I can see occurring would be the affirmation/manifesting/placebo effect that takes place when the shooter "believes" it's working.

To me cheating woul be using loaded dice etc. It's no different than using techniques & skills in Billiards. You learn techniques to have better control of your game. In both games you are playing against yourself because YOU are in control of the game when your rolling the Dice or shooting on a Pool table.

No. There is no control of dice by experts. Casinos would shut that down very quickly, build a database of such "experts" and prevent any such advantage. But before all those measures are taken, physics handles things quite well, thank you.
