I obviously made a lot of mistakes here and I am posting this for entertainment and to suggest how you should not make these same mistakes where your ego has you behaving like an invincible card counter.
Double Deck game more than 1 deck dealt.. no aces dealt, im Hiopt2 w/ace side count, also side counting 8/9 for practice.
I sit down at 15min table at casino i don't normally play at (because always 0.50 antes), no one knows me. I say hi to everyone and inform them I am the best first baseman they have ever played with.
Count is -10, +5 surplus aces, depleted 8/9
Guy on third base has half table max out with 11 versus dealer 4.
I tell him be "careful with that double, no aces are out"
He tells me, "shut up idiot i've only been playing for 20 years"
I said, "no problem man, just saying a 12 really sucks"
Dealer draws a bunch of small cards to 18.
He gets the Ace on the double, storms off the table, the other two players just stare at me, i have no reaction.
Running Count changes to even, now only 1 ace out, still 4/5 surplus aces, last hand of shoe, TC adjusted for aces now +9
I look at the other two players with slight nod, they put out half table max bets. I put out my normal 7units
I get an ACE, next player face, next player 2 aces, splits them both for 21, dealer busts.
I get stared at again followed by fists bumps.
I realize this is not my normal character helping ploppies, dealer and pitboss noticing, drawing attention, appearing like a pro, and so i leave. Back to my normal dumb act asking the dealer for help and appearance of sloppy play.
