Okay, I was bored and so I changed my mind and decide to play through this game. I will post my first WIP of this video sometime later today.
In Roulette, it is by far the easiest and little luck maniupulation is required. But when I got up to the King when playing this part, there was a "limit" on the money I was forced to carry. It was exactly $1 M. I had about $167,000 when I placed 5 bets on # 15. After it landed on the 15, payout was 35 to 1, however... this payout should have been $1.8 milllion! But the King said $833,350 instead. I can't believe I was so ripped off!
In 21, I had to examine each hand and determine what would be the best ways to get through it or around it without losing a lot of money. Luck manipulation is extremely difficult here! Memory addresses are very hard to discover and/or change just to get the right card at the right time. But anyhow, there has been hands where I would have to bet little on hands that wouldn't beat or would bust upon each dealer. Then there were hands where I was able to use splits, double-downs, or both, just to drain their money and try to finish them off quickly. I beated Rocky using a 21, and Nikoria with a split-up where both of my hands each had a double-down.
And finally, draw poker. Again, luck manipulation is extremely difficult here, too. It is by far impossible to even get a royal flush. The best hand I had was just a Flush by itself. But after I beated Allton, I started showing greed by betting and raising the pots back-and-forth to further drain their money and use the best hands possible to capture them every time. When you watch the movie, maybe this might save you some time because that could be the key to a decent to perfect TAS. For Allton and the King, I placed them in a situation where they had to forfeit in the middle of a dealt hand. Thus, I beated them hands-down under that circumstance.
The "Mystery Leader" is the exact same character like the one in Casino Kid 1. It's "King"! This was a so-called "final battle" through, in sequence; roulette, 21, and finally draw poker. I didn't become an instant millionaire until after I beated the King in Roulette. Not only there was a $1 million limit on that game, but for 21 as well. Either this was a programming error, or the developers really pissed players off by throwing this in on purpose! Again, Casino Kid got ripped off after these two battles against the King, however, it wasn't over yet. I recalled not only the judgment strategies in 21, but the back-and-forth betting and raising strategies in draw poker as well.
After I beated the King, I walked away with $1,100,000. But I will go back and recalculate how much Casino Kid should've had after being ripped off by the game. Anyhow, I had to go through the screens where the King said I was #1 and that I became the best gambler in the world or something. And that should be the end of the movie. I beated the game in 24 minutes. Only countless hours of random luck manipulation could save up to a minute off of the run that I done last night.

According to recalculation, Casino Kid should've ended up with
$2,174,650.00! What a million-dollar highway robbery... =/
