Anyone knows this is legit and worth pursuing? A friend of mine recently got super into it even though he does not frequent the casinos and practices daily. He claims if done correctly it gives you the edge and that it is easy to learn. I think there has to be a catch otherwise people would be cleaning the casinos daily. Anyone who knows about this subject can comment?
Pretty pointless in casinos as they use like 6 decks instead of 1 at tables
6 decks is precisely the situation when you can count cards. Some casinos have “infinite” shuffle machines, these you cannot beat...
It calls continuous shuffle. You also need to have some sizable bank roll. Professional card counters hardly make $100/hr. MIT level players are soon blacklisted everyehere. Playing blackjack for entertainment, not career path
If done correctly just know that casinos are a private business and they don’t have to let you play their table games. Even as much so, if you’re at an Indian casino know that if you get caught counting cards there, you have no options as you are on sovereign nation land and they can fuck you up and you’ve got no recourse.
Card counting is not illegal. At most they will not allow you to play blackjack in their casino.
Not saying it’s illegal. I’m saying watch your back.
Baccarat at my local casino lets u bet on banker with no comission. 51% odds
When at the casino, check out those cctv cameras above the table. 10 years ago I worked on a card counting detection system, and I’m sure we weren’t the only one company tackling that market. I may be responsible for some broken bones, ehh...
Every time I tried to count cards I would bet big and get absolutely smashed even when the counts were crazy good. I stopped doing it because the edge is still not very good. Get good at poker instead and try to take money from people who aren't as good :P
If you have a bad day you might lose 5 hands in a row even when the true count is high when u have bet high amounts. You need enough bankroll to sustain such rough shoes. Bankroll/money management & risk management are critical along with card counting to consistently win in blackjack.
