Cheat-Detecting Dealer Chip-Tray?

Cheat-Detecting Chip Rack?

According to a 3-D animation firm CEO named Darrell Ratliff, casino cheating can be detected simply by the casino chips coming out of the dealer's chip tray via cheating itself.

Sound curious?

Well, that's what Ratlff says. He has received a patent for a device he calls "The Smart Chip Tray." It is a casino chip rack that uses lasers to track the chip-movement in each of the rack's slots. So by tracking chips disappearing out of the racks to quickly, casinos can catch on to cheating scams.

What do I think of this casino-cheat-detecting chip rack?

I would rack it up to another worthless prevent-casino-cheating claim. I mean, after all, what about all those legitimate players who get on a lucky streak and wipe out the chip racks during a string of winning hands?
