I could write something like this in a few hours, without question. Java is not my language, but I do write C# code, which is near identical, and having come up with a reason why a 50/50 game might not behave 50/50, and having a lot existing classes (random number libraries, cards, etc.), I think it would be pretty easy to come up with some code.
Again, I am not saying that that is the case, as we do not know. But it's absolutely incorrect to say that they could not have mocked up this code.

Agreed on the first part. Secondly, one cannot necessarily intercept an error if an error isn't properly reported, either by players, or by their error checking system. You cannot assume that they KNEW the code was faulty until the time it was reported - otherwise there would be no bugs in ANY software.

Erm, yes we can, they said they had already scheduled an update for the software, and that explains how the code started behaving fairly, because they had previously arranged for the code to be fixed.
Why would you schedule an update of this nature, rather than just shutting the whole thing down?
This bit at least doesn't add up.
