Personally, I am not much paranoid of ASMs programmed to stack the shoe because I only play at mainstream casinos which I do not believe would ever risk their licenses, not to mention jail time, to pull such a trick. A small casino-- who knows what they might do? The history of casinos in this country is not entirely a pretty one.
Is Sands considered a mainstream casino. Because I find that place to be rigged.
