  That seems to still be talking about making predictions after the ball is released. The biases remove enough randomness that an experienced human can predict sufficiently to get a slight advantage where the ball will end up the same way the earlier computers did. My recollection of the family in the "Breaking Vegas" episode is that they were not looking at the ball release and making predictions. They were taking their records of a large number of observed outcomes and then could come up with a list of bets to make when they later returned to the wheel.
