How Pit Bosses Try to Stop Card Counters #blackjack

[MrZoolook]

Amazing how a legal means of weighing up the odds of winning is so highly frowned upon by the people who invite you to play a game where there is a chance of winning against them.

*the pit boss staring in disbelief, at first because he thought I was counting cards, then later because he realized I don't know how to play*

They love trying to talk and distract me. One even sat next to me and started flirting once lol. I politely engage and eventually they stop bothering me. There's an art to the game of cat and mouse.

"He's thinking, GET HIM!"

Card counting is literally how the game is meant to be played. Anyone upset at it either works/owns a casino or is shit at the game.

When I have a dealer who won’t stop talking I completely stop playing to answer them back, even dragging out a response. Eventually they catch on that this guy won’t play if I’m talking and keep the interactions short

Usually they just cap your bet limit or make you stick to one amount

The old Sands Casino Literally Closed the Black Jack table I was sitting at.
I was playing all 5 Hands & winning.
Switched Dealers- Still Winning, so that closed the table. I go to another table & play 2 Hands. Then Security, Pit Boss & Floor Manager all told me to "Please Leave the Casino". I cashed-Out & left immediately.
I came with $500 & left with 9 Grand.

Shuffling mid game should be 100% illegal, unless the player is REALLY cheating like using fake cards or a watcher, etc. Counting cards is just another word for being smart as fuck, shouldn't be illegal.

Them: "Card counter". Me: "A good memory".

"The players watch the dealers, the dealers watch the players, the box men watch the dealers, the floor men watch the box men, the pit bosses watch the floor men, the shift bosses watch the pit bosses, the manager watches the shift bosses, the owner watches the manager and the eye in the sky watches everyone"

If you play their games you should expect to lose, the saying "The house always wins" isn't empty words, if they think you're a lil too "lucky" they kick you.

My mate got backed off once and he wasn't a counter. Was just having a half decent run. Turned out the employee was new and wasn't supposed to be backing people off. He was getting ahead of himself on an ego trip. Small casino
My friend complained the next day and they looked confused and said he is not allowed to do that and invited him back in. He pretty much lost the lot that night. 😅
Believe it or not true story

If a pit boss suspects you of counting surveillance has already gone back and watched your play to determine if you are indeed betting with the count. One of the skills a surveillance agent must have is counting cards. And if you have been caught counting and identified, you are reported to a private wibesite called red hand that like 90% of casino surveillance agents have access to. The only way to gain access to this sight is to have the surveilance department verify that you are a surveillance agent.

Casinos have a thousand ways they can cheat you, but if none of them work, they can throw you out for just being too good.

They once told me they would suspect someone like me of card counting since I do dumb shit like split 10s or whatever, thankfully I'm too stupid to count the cards in my hand let alone in the deck😂

[MrWillaqui]

Card counting - Illegal

Not paying when a slot machine "malfunctions" - Legal

[VegasNoonan]

They sometimes gave ppl free tickets to a Diddy party

The eye in the sky determines a card counter.

When I'm winning they just send that older Asian woman to my table who splits 6s 🤨
