Mark Howe Roulette Computer

 

 

NOTE: A site created by the victims of the predictroulette.com scam is at http://www.zyworld.com/predict_roulette_computer_scam/ - the victims are freely distributing the roulette computer software and providing details of testing to protect the public from being scammed.

WARNING: This seller (Mark Howe) is now running a new scam. Instead of selling an ineffective device, he claims you can initially pay him £600 to "evaluate" his roulette computer, then later pay the rest him with profits. Sounds like a good and fair deal, but for your £600 numerous victims received NOTHING. He blatantly stole people's money and lied claiming the product was already sent. He refuses to provide any receipt to prove anything was actually shipped. So far, we are aware of TWO individuals he has scammed this way, one of which is so outraged he requested we publish his contact details so he can verify to anyone that Mark Howe blatantly stole his £600 (US$1200):

The remainder of this review is regarding his known-ineffective product (when he didn't merely steal people's money):

This seller is incredibly manipulative and dishonest, so a lot of detail is provided. Additional to blatantly lying about his competitors, the seller (Mark Anthony Howe) has broken countless laws to promote his ineffective product. For example, he has lied claiming the Gaming Commission (www.gamblingcommission.gov.uk) tested his device and found it to be effective - a blatant lie that the Gaming Commission confirmed. The UK Gaming Commission stated:

"Mark Howe has been brought to the attention of the Gambling Commission on a previous occasion and we would advise you not to purchase this product. The commission has received previous complaints regarding this individual and these have been passed to the Office of Fair Trading." - Thomas Allmark, Licensing Administrator, UK Gaming Commission, Ph: 0121 230 6666

Mark even published fake letters from the Gaming Commission claiming the quote was inaccurate. He has emailed me a threatening letter pretending to be a Gaming Commission representative, asking me to remove negative information about him. Mark has since fled to Norway.

Mark has also lied and claimed government labs (National Weights and Measures Lab www.nwml.gov.uk) have tested an endorsed his device - an outright lie as the lab confirmed. He has impersonated well known roulette researchers such as Thomas Bass and Ion Saliu (read Ion's comments) to give himself false positive reviews on forums. He trades under a fake business name and operates many web sites under fake names selling the same products to escape poor feedback about his products. He has made countless lies about his assets and claims to be a millionaire when people that know him personally confirmed he's nearly broke. He's even fabricated purchasers of competitors to give false negative reviews to boost his business, in particularly to harm Forester and Steve Hourmouzis. Mark also runs the fake review site roulettecomputerreviews.com where he attacks his competitors, gives his own products high reviews, and provides top reviews to computers that don't exist so he convince people the review site is genuine. This is scarcely the tip of the iceberg. I have little doubt he will eventually be imprisoned. Nevertheless, what can be said about his computer?

In short, it is nowhere near what he claims. As many others have found, Mark Howe's computer is extremely simplistic, and largely inadequate to beat modern roulette wheels. It can only be successfully applied only on easily beaten biased wheels where the ball constantly drops at the same point around the circumference of the wheel. Mark recently released a mobile phone version, although individuals who have this version claim it is no better than his Psion 3a model shown above.

From Mark's DVD where you see his wheel spinning, I obtained a 1 in 23 hit rate (the correct number was hit 1 in 23 times). However, this wheel is of a very easily beaten design you are unlikely to ever see. It has extremely predictable diamond hits deflecting the ball sharply down from the same diamond on almost every spin, and the ball has virtually no bounce. When queried why he selected such easily beaten conditions, Mark claimed it was because he was renovating and couldn't access his other wheels when making the DVD. Mark has refused a $1,000,000 cash award if he can prove his computer is effective on common unbiased level wheels. He conducted one demonstration to the Guardian newspaper, although it was on a tilted (biased) wheel. Although Howe claims the demo was on a level (unbiased) wheel, the actual article itself makes it clear Mark's claim is false. For example, the reporter states in the article, "Mark Howe claims his software will also work on level wheels." indicating the demonstration was not conducted on a level (unbiased) wheel. In fact half the article is about biased wheels. Furthermore, in the audio report, the reporter clearly states the demonstration was "statistically insignificant7 as it was conducted over only 50 spins, although Mr. Howe advertises the demonstration as conclusive proof of effectiveness, which is far from the case.

In addition to it's many shortcomings, Mark's computer requires you to determine ball speed before wheel speed. This is absolutely incorrect because the ball should be sampled as late in the spin as possible. Such an error is indicative of development from an amateur.

My thorough testing of Mark's computer on level wheels produced virtually random results. His computer has been tested by many others with similar results although to explain poor feedback, Mark claimed purchasers are merely incompetent. To my knowledge, not one credible person (a person other than an anonymous forum member) has ever claimed to have witnessed Mark successfully demonstrate his computer on a modern level wheel. A simple test where the same spin is predicted repeatedly on DVD easily and indisputably confirms the ineffectiveness of this device - namely that it deals very poorly with human errors in timings among other things.

In attempt to refute claims that his computer cannot achieve an edge on modern level wheels, Mark released video footage of his computer being applied on a different wheel. The wheel appears level, and he points to the prediction to confirm predictions aren't voiceovers, but the video has the following suspicious attributes for consideration:

 

• The demo is conducted over only 60 spins which is insufficient, especially when the footage ends abruptly with no comment. Howe could have easily taken the best 60 spins and cut the footage short where the results were still favorable, instead of doing the demo over a set number of spins.

• Again a heavy ball is used with minimal bounce.

• The footage is badly corrupted and the wheel becomes invisible about half way through the footage. This is extremely suspicious, and would make it extremely easy to cut and join two favorable sets of 30 spins.

• There is absolutely no continuous movement in the footage's background. This would make cutting and editing footage much easier.

• Most notably: at the end of the video, a scatter chart is shown which is extremely misleading. This is because after any amount of spins, a "peak" will inevitably form because there will never be a perfect spread of values. It is much like how after 100 spins, there will almost never be exactly 50 red and 50 black numbers. Mark claims that his computer's edge is where the peak has appeared. The problem with this is especially over a low number of spins, because there is never a perfect spread of values, a peak will inevitably form. What Mark appears to have done is merely claim this inevitable peak is where his computer has the advantage. To an amateur, Mark's demo may be convincing. To someone that knows better, his latest video demonstration shows many signs of manipulation. In light of his level of dishonesty regarding countless matters, and the fact that I and many others have personally tested his computer, I have little doubt he has manipulated his video demonstration.

VERDICT: Completely ineffective on modern roulette wheels as many others have found. It can only achieve an edge on very easily beaten biased wheels where the ball constantly falls at the same point around the wheel, and even then the device doesn't do the job anywhere near as well as it could. But because it can at least beat some very rare wheels, it is given a two star rating. What makes it a scam is the outrageous lies from the seller concerning the product's effectiveness, and his own results. For example he claims to have won US$14,000,000 and been banned from casinos, and drives Ferarri's, Humvees and lives in mansions etc which are blatant lies confirmed by people that know him personally and indicated he is actually near broke. Despite the computer's limited effectiveness, literally you can achieve better results with visual ballistics than this roulette computer (visual ballistics is a technique that is legal in all jurisdictions, and forms part of the genuinewinner.com roulette system). Mark Howe is the most dishonest and manipulative person I've ever known. Falsely claiming his device was tested and endorsed by a UK Government Lab (NWML) and the UK Gaming Commission is only a fragment of Mark's dishonesty. Mark is also well known for blatantly lying about competitors, posting false positive reviews, impersonating others and creating false identities on message board to promote his computer. For such action, he has been banned from many gambling forums. If you've been scammed by Mark Howe, report him. He has recently fled to Norway.
