So... are we meant to believe he did it for real and got a near miss and just gave up? Do we believe that?

Think it was a deliberate reference to the classic 'Off by One' routine....?

think it would work at the casino if he had "off by one" written underneath the chips?

Considering that the casino appeared to be empty on a Friday night, and there was nothing to prove that this was really live, the whole casino part could have been completely staged and faked - like they did with the moon landings. ;)

Honestly, there was no reasonable excuse to be one out. :D

Maybe it was a morality play - a dire warning to tap dancers not to risk their everything on the turn of a wheel.

i thought that mental-ists were supposed to get things wrong from time-to-time as it makes the hits more realistic.

The newtonian roulette people only had a 44% advantage, apparently they weren't perfect.
