A Guide to Super Hero Super Powers in the Casino

Super Vision:
Imagine going to the casino and everyone is showing you their cards and the dealer is telling you what cards are going to be dealt next. It would make all the card games in a casino easy right. You would be unbeatable. You would know when to fold and when to go all in playing poker and when to hit, stay and double down playing blackjack. Super Vision would only be good for card games. When it came to craps and roulette there would be no advantage to seeing thru the table.

Transparency:
The ability to turn invisible would be a nice power for a spy or an extortionist, but not really that good for gambling. You would have to work as a team with someone. They could place bets at a roulette table and you could move the bet to the winning number, but you would have to be slick about it. If you bumped into someone they would want to know what touched them, and if suddenly someone sees a stack of chips moving they are going to wonder why.

Super Stretch:
This is like the guy from the fantastic 4 he could make his hand go under the table and up the far side and he could more the ball on the roulette table or move the bets around, but that’s about all he could do and realistically someone is bound to see is rubbery arm doing all of this.

Super Strength:
This would be a great superpower if you were going to rob the casino. you could walk right in rip the doors of to the vaults and just grab the money and walk out, without anyone being able to stop you. But this would not be a very good power for cheating in the casino.

The Ice Man
Great if you want a cold drink, but not really good in the casino. I guess maybe he could make it so cold you are unable to pay attention and start to play bad.

Communicating with Nature:
Unless there is a plant behind the other players at a poker table I don’t see what good this one will do. But it could be cool top have an outdoor poker game and you could get help from animals and plants and stuff, but no good in the casino.

Using Your Brain:
Call it whatever you want, but the ability to move things with your mind would be a great help in a casino but not in every game. You would not want to sit at the poker table or the keno room with this power. It could be good for the slots as long as they are not video slots. This power would be best for the roulette or craps table.

Telepathy:
This super power would fall right under X Ray Vision because you would know what everyone had in their hands, but you could never know what was the next card in the shoe like you would if you could see thru things. So this would be helpful but not the best one to have.

Super Hearing:
The only way I can think of to make money with super hearing in a casino would be blackmail. I am sure people talk about things they should not discuss in public in a casino thinking they are safe with all the noise of the casino.

Ice Breath:
The ability to freeze everyone in the casino again is another talent more practical for a thief then just a casino cheat. This would be a great skill if you were throwing a party. You could keep the keg super cold, but do not see it working in the casino.

Mind Control:
This would be one of the best of them all even better then X Ray Vision. It would not matter what you had in your hand you could make everyone think you won. This is the only super power that would work in an online casino, and that is assuming that you can control the minds of people who may be across the world.

If you should ever gain a super power you should know nothing says you have to use it for good.
