    I think the casinos are using cards with shifting ink. For example, if a dealer ace up detects a 6 in the hole, it sends a signal to shift the ink on the hole card and make it a T.

    Well, I am still losing at that casino. Since my last post, I have played twice, lost another $800. Today, I played 9-10 shoes, with 1-4 other players, the count never went high positive (TC4 or more) and only once went high negative (TC-4) and I had wronged out. I was playing 2 hands to start, dropping to one hand of $15 at TC-1 and wonging out at TC -3.

    At one point, dealer had an Ace up, 2, under, hit with 10 and then 4 straight Aces. At another time 7 4’s were on the table. Everyone noticed this because first base had a pair of 4’s and had played a $10 top bet that would have netted him a lot of money. He did not get it.

    Cannot believe the consistent losing in a casino with a cut card placed at 30 cards in a 6 deck shoe, counting with no cover and yet no real heat. It seemed, from the look on the pit guy walking about the floor, that he knew. He just always glanced at my chips as he went by.

    in any case, I am down about $5k this year, plan to take a break.

    Why don't you understand that you could play 48 straight hours, far more than your number of hours, and still not have meaningful results?

    You've spent most of a career counting and are at square zero.

    Its my 6th year but it looks like the first losing one. It’s just never happened to me, losing at one casino so consistently with such deep penetration and I don’t want to bring it up that the ASM might have issues.

    Now you're just trolling. You should have been banned years ago.

    This just shows your nastiness. When people lose, it’s not uncommon for them to blame dealer, casino, shufflers and such. Maybe I am being paranoid but don’t go calling for bans. Many of my threads have ended up getting out some good insights for readers.

    When I lose, I blame the moon and the stars. Get your head out of your ass.

    You're trolling because you know exactly what you're doing.

    I don't want to bring it up but tee hee hee I brought it up!

    Troll.

    I agree with you. refinery is the worst kind of human being I ever met in my life or online. He is most likely working for casino or gaming industry.

    Zee's post is like me saying it is raining today and I lost. Must be the rain?

    His spread is anemic at best and stupid at worst. You can not beat a 6 deck game with that spread.

    Near the end, the house edge decreases about .2% for every 26 cards, it is the place you will have more positive opportuniites and will therefore have larger bets and lose or win at much higher rates. Duh?
    Luck is nothing more than probability taken personally!

    Never heard it expressed this way - another way of explaining the floating advantage.
