Interesting points, but it was not that long ago when it was a PLAYER that had a fantastic run at live Roulette, yet it seemed the casino was highly suspicious that somehow the PLAYER had rigged the live roulette, and felt the need to investigate. In the end, the player was paid fully, and the casino accepted the player simply "got lucky".
Clearly, if even casinos feel the need to question such unusual runs of luck on live games, why would they expect the PLAYERS to trust them 100% when THEY have the run of extreme bad luck.
I also find it odd that an operator would take down the webcam for "essential maintenance" when there is a full table in play & everything is working fine. In business terms, this defies logic, however the real reason might be that the pit boss suspected something was up with too many players winning too often, and wanted to perform "essential maintenance" on the DEALER to ensure nothing "funny" was going on. They must have replaced the shoe of cards, but neglected to do so while "on air", thus making players suspect that the casino had installed a rigged shoe to get back some of the wins.
If all players are playing "perfect strategy", and none leave or skip a hand, it would be possible to construct a rigged shoe for this, but it would easily be ruined if any players deviated from the game plan, so the casino would not want to try this unless they were already rogue.
Another way to rig a shoe that would not be disrupted by players changing their play would be to load it with low cards at the front, giving the dealer a long term advantage, and making dealer 21's more frequent, and dealer busts less frequent. It could be worth analysing the cards played from the shoe once the live game came back on air, and see if it is loaded with low cards compared to the shoe beforehand.
