You would really have to demonstrate some savvy programming to convince players that they are not trying Physeptone or some other hybrid.

I have actually thought about this myself, but when you break it down there are so many factors which are rate limiting. I could generate brilliant game concepts, I am confident of that. I cannnot program modern computers, so I would have to learn or pay someone. Both have their obvious flaws. Then there are issues with making it legit and operating secure software.
I would have a casino with the 'uk AWP' section as an add on. Roulette is an international game, uk hi-tech AWP are not. Once you did get it up and running you could offer far higher %s than the high street and although it might be something of a lost leader compared to roulette/slots, I feel it'd still make money.
The trouble is starting the darn thing and getting it to run successfully. I don't have the knowledge to do that.

Yes, well the spelling 'error' was intended for reasons I thought would be obvious... ah well, my bad, your good, our brilliance....

Does everyone play the same virtual machine at the same time, or do you provided say 20 of each game, and allow the player to pick?
Each "machine" would need to be independant to make it playable otherwise you could get a feature every spin for X plays assuming lots of others are playing it at the same time, and they could get bugger all. It'd eliminate the gameplay.
Then if they are independant, everytime someone comes on the machine they want to play is "taken" they'll stop coming back. If you make a limitless amount of each machine, are they generated flat/ready-ish/same state?
You'd have to store all these percentage values for the future.
Its a bit of a logistical nightmare, and seems to me to make it work you'd have to limit the number of machines hence negating the whole on-demand aspect of online gaming.
