    Question Is that a CSM?(Picture)

    Hello fellow Card Counters!
    I recently searched for a beatable game (standard rules but not using CSMs). After having screened the rules, I came across this picture of the blackjack table and I was wondering whether that is a CSM or not. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

    Looks like a CSM to me.. I thought in Germany all machines were CSM.. Last time I played there was back in 2016 but the two places I played both had them.. I did okay at both.. I played an hour at both casinos. Potsdamer Platz and Fernsehturm If I am correct. My daughter was on exchange for college in Berlin for a year and we visited her. I was head to head at the first sessions, the second I had only two other people at the table... Germans didn't seem to want to play BJ much at least not when I was playing just before dinner. If I recall correctly they have strict hours for when the tables are open.. I think the max bet I could make at any table was $100 euros... So add in the CSM and a max bet limit that low it I knew I wasn't going to make any money there. I guess I played for the novelty of it more than anything.. The one thing that really struck me was that my dealer had no clue what basic strategy was and no one else at the table did either?? I was told the 'real' gamblers all come out after 11pm..

    Thanks for the inside!
    The shoe displayed does belong to the Casino Chain in Hamburg. Has anyone played there before?
