I was just thinking today that before you know it they will have a computer chip inside a casino chip so they can track you and guess what i was just watching a show where they said at Steve Wynns new casino WYNN. they will have such a thing to try and prevent counterfeits (which is bull ****) and to track customers (which is the bottom line) i cant believe i was just thinking of this today and then vala there it is!! So no more taking your winnings to the sportsbook and cashout!

I had the same happen to me in Atlantic City. Not seriously counting. Ok, I do play Basic strategy and when I see a few more pictures leave the deck, I will lower the stake, but that seemed enough for them to give me the boot, when I had one of those shoes, in which I hardly had a losing hand. You know one of those in which you split, double, etc. get even more **** cards, but the bank always hit two pictures on a small card. The moment you do want to make money playing Black Jack, you are left with playing such a spread and you will then automatically be in the picture. Nothing you can do against it. Your only way out is to go to places where there are plenty squares at the table that play big.

acw,

With all due respect, most people who actually have an edge against the house or sports book, don't come in here to talk about it...:smoker2:

THE SHRINK

that's the problem. counting or not, you play at a sweaty shop, they will boot you if you look like a winner, even if you play a losing game.

I heard a story about that ( not sure if true). Showboat had all you can lobster buffet ( about $12 10-12 years ago). I heard a story about a guy eating about a dozen, or so, wanting more and getting cut off and having money refunded !

things like that make me upset but the worst to me is insurance companies. i lived in what they called the worst zip code in hartford for insurance rates, jakced my rates up.....wasn't married at the time, jacked my rates up......im male, so they jacked my rates up.....etc

they say males get in more accidents so the policy costs more.......ok maybe that is fact, males get in more accidents.....
what if there was a study that said chinese people get in more accidents per capita than any other group of people....could they then charge them more? would that be allowed?

sherman · Feb 9, 2005

youll have to excuse me, but i get mad, i still pay crazy rates!

Spreading 1-14 black in a juicy DD game and you complain about being barred. What exactly did you expect?

Im playing by the rules why should i be barred it is like telling someone that keeps hitting slot jackpots that they cant play slots anymore it just doesnt make sense to me when the casinos are the ones setting up the rules !! There are enough losers out there!

Slot machines are a game of chance (luck) where as blackjack there is some skill to it. Why did you bet such a heavy spread that in itself was going to cause attention. What did you expect them to be your personally ATM.

mj - unfortunately casinos/sportsbooks want it all and don't want anyone to win but if you are good it's part of the game. I've been banned or had my limits cut to ridiculous levels by countless sportsbooks so why should it be any different for a card counter?

Was reading an article that the casinos now have softwear that they can watch all the games at once and if someone iswinning or appears to be card counting they can tell the dealer to reshuffle. add that in with the automatic shufflers and they are oviously out to eliminate counting with out barring you. they just wont you getenough bets down before they reshuffle.

They can reshuffle as much as they want i am not counting cards i am just playing a strict money management system. The only reason i like a 2 deck game is because you can play basic stratagy and not deviate as much as you have to in a 6 and 8 deck game.

bigbet1234 · Feb 10, 2005

be thankful they booted you. if you are not counting, or shuffle tracking(or cheatin) BJ can not be beat long term. take you winnings and be happy. you would give it back in the long run. a mathmatical promise.
