Ignition online casino questions

[alikmetalik]

Does anyone know how ignition catches card counters on there live blackjack tables.
Is there a certain betting amount/winnings made that cues them to start tracking your hands?
Do they ban different accounts?
Any relevant information that you gained while counting there is something I would really appreciate.

Thank you.

I'm not sure how they catch counters but here's my personal experience.

I was playing on there the past two weeks. The number of decks (6 I think) plus their cut into the stack (middle) makes things a little harder on counters, I believe. Personally, I think it's a good way to practice High/
Low - If you're at a $10 min table , they are usually full, and don't move too fast.

I'm a total noob but counting just didn't seem to work. Talking big negative running count but the dealer is still dishing out a sh*t ton of 10's. A lot of pushes on 21. Dealer's get BJ a lot. Very clustery.

Don't bother with $5 tables there.

I've found my luck a little better during the day time at the $25 tables but I also lost a total of $500.

I'm done playing there but will use it as practice since you can join a table and just observe.

Take this for whatever you think it's worth... First, if you are counting and it's a 6 or 8 deck shoe and the shoe is cut at 50% or so, simply don't play. In order to get any advantage, you need deck penetration when counting cards, the deeper the better. Second, you need as many rounds per hour as possible. I have sat and just watched/timed it as to how long it takes to get through a shoe (50% cut) and it's horrible. You are lucky to get in 30 rounds if you are lucky. It's agonizing. If you read any book on Black Jack or read even some of the posts here, deck penetration and the number of rounds you can play per hour are key to being a profitable card counter. Third, the rules vary from site to site but none of them favor the the player. Three strikes and you're out. If you want practice don't waste your time watching live blackjack... Buy a good software BJ training program like Casino Verite Black Jack and it has drills and you can sim whatever rules/conditions you might be going to playing with when you visit your next casino and practice that way. I am not a blackjack expert but my game has improved by working/simming up my bet spread and practice functions with counting. Just my two cents,, take it or leave it.

You are lucky to get in 30 rounds if you are lucky.

Generally speaking when attempting to count online blackjack you are looking for some form of speed blackjack and/or playing at least 3 tables at once, preferably more. That is the point from an AP perspective.

If you can't or don't want to do that don't play.

Close any table where the count goes south early and load a new one.

Mostly the online casinos believe their crappy rules protect them from counters so they usually leave you alone. There will be some kind of win amount trigger however.
