Oh, really, you don't get your ass kicked or in some cases shot for counting cards at casinos?
Go count cards at a casino in las vegas for about a month, then report back here on how well it worked out for you...


you're a ignorant dumbass if you think card counters get pulled out and shot for using their brains. All they do is bar you. If they shot you or beat you up you could sue them up the ass. But you're misunderstood, because Casinos in Vegas USED to be run by the mob. Not anymore.

I just dropped a box of toothpicks. I counted 246 of them on the ground. I thought I was wrong, because the box said 250. But there were 4 left in the box.

Curious cuz of the thread about variable change. Also because I've been seriously counting since I turned 18 (casinos in washington are 18+). I made $3800 last year counting cards, and thats a sum of all the trips i go to the casino after work, etc to double my paycheck. There was one extreme winter in Oregon last year where we were stuck in snow for a week, and in that week i read just about everything there was on blackjack and trained hard.

I guess my Q is, does anyone here count cards too? or try to use some kind of strategy when you're gambling or playing blackjack?


Sounds rather interesting, theres a show on TV about it if im correct?

Lol in the 3 months I lived in Vegas I've seen atleast 50+ people thrown out and "taken to the back" if that's what you wish to call it.

They'll spot you the minute you start finding loopholes to take money from them and they won't be very happy about it.

They probably won't physically harm you in anyway unless you keep coming back after you get kicked out.

Even if you do get harmed you won't be able to do anything about it because it'll be from someone that has no relation what so ever to whoever runs the place.

In the very unlikely chance that you can perfectly cound cards (I doubt it) you should play it safe and not go the get rich quick route.

Professional liar? You think you can eventually just decide that you want to count cards and start doing it?

You must be very young.. come back here when you're old enough to gamble.

told.

This weekend I used the Uston APC Count on Single Deck Blackjack
Face cards = -3
Nines = -1
threes, fours, sixes, seven = +2
twos and eight = +1
fives = +3
Aces = 0, but side counted.

I was very lucrative playing this and lasted quite some time at even, but my wins were bigger than my dips
