    No, he didn't. He says the law defines blackjack as a game of skill (which I'm taking on faith, because I have my doubts). He then says "You can't exclude people from games of skill." Structurally, that's a second-person statement sandwiched between two third-person statements; and it genuinely appears to be his own interpretation.

    And apparently the casino's interpretation. If they interpret things that way don't you think it is so or do you think the casinos just decided not to back people off for counting and just use countermeasures instead.

    Apparently the casino's? Where you getting that from?

    I've heard of games of skill not being legally considered gambling. You can't possibly be arguing that blackjack isn't gambling. So I don't know what you're saying.

About Blackjack: The Forum

BJTF is an advantage player site based on the principles of comity. That is, civil and considerate behavior for the mutual benefit of all involved. The goal of advantage play is the legal extraction of funds from gaming establishments by gaining a mathematic advantage and developing the skills required to use that advantage. To maximize our success, it is important to understand that we are all on the same side. Personal conflicts simply get in the way of our goals.
