    Small casino inside Schipol - CSM.
    Casino across from the Opera House in Vienna - all CSM, but got 35 euro in free play to sign up for a player's card.
    Casino in Budapest (along the Danube, near the chain bridge) - one table non-CSM, but they cut off 2.5 decks from a 6D shoe.
    Casino in Varna, Bulgaria - very limited hours for table games. Were closed when I stopped in.
    Has anybody played blackjack in any Korean casinos?

    I think Northern Cyprus is good for AP but not blackjack. They very intolerant of counting. In europe it os very much dead I'm very sorry. Some shoe games here and there, but travel expenses kill you amd make it not logically
    Ty for your infos. So Northern Cyprus is not an option it seems. Croatia is an option but they will catch you soon. At least if the bet spreads are big. And Slovenia may be an option. You won only 300€ and that is little but that may have been some bad variance. I mean I dont know how big the ev was. I dont know how to figure out the ev.

    No entire France are csm, but 70% I think.

    But the shoe game in France is bad now.

    Low limit, open just some hourly, dealer very slow and surrender is finish.

    Most of Europe is dead about cardcounters.

    Low max

    Sweaty casinos

    Bad penitration

    Ban

    And cheating is the main dish of casinos.

    Plus the expenses of traveling are huge to make a living out of bj

    Tell us more about your self ...
