Spin a prize wheel that slows down and stops on the prize already rolled

The prize should be decided honestly first, and the wheel then has to look as if it simply ran out of speed there. Players notice if it stops on an edge, jerks at the end or turns backwards. This shows how to work out the exact stopping angle and how to give a click for every wedge.

Why this works

Fairness lives in the draw, not in the spin. Deciding the prize first and then steering the wheel to it keeps the odds honest and the result stored, while the spin only has to look natural and end where the result says.

When not to use it

Not when the player is meant to influence the stop, as with a timing game or a stop button. A wheel that always lands on a fixed result would then be a trick, so let the real stop position decide the prize.
