Through my recent research, I've discovered what card counters have been fighting for decades is a losing battle, or maybe not? For almost 40 years, Blackjack Advantage Players, Known as "Card Counters" have been at war with casinos. AP players have always claimed, with valid reasons, that card counting isnt illegal. Supreme Courts have already ruled card counting isnt illegal. However, for years now, Casinos have operated under legislatures "the common law" which has allowed them to exclude any patron from their establishment for any reasons. Now through my research, you'd think there would be thousands of cases where Advantage Players have challenged this in the highest courts of laws right? Wrong, in fact its not even in the hundreds (Plural). Out of those very few cases, mostly the same argument was raised, "Card counting isnt illegal thus should be allowed to be played in Casinos". Almost everyone of those cases, the plaintiff's admitted to "card counting".
This leads me back to the beginning of this post, which is that mentality hasnt and will never change the enviroment for card counters in Casino. Now through my background and common sense, I know that the law states innocent until proven guilty. Now youre asking, card counting isnt illegal, so it shouldnt matter. WRONG, through what I've already proven in this post, it does matter. Casino employees for years have been banning card counters and many dont put up a fight citing its not cheating or wrong (which it isnt). Now I fully understand that if you're not doing anything illegal, you should have nothing to hide. However, thats just not the case when it comes to card counters rights in Casinos. Card counters continue to lose all rights to the common law rule that casinos have been operating under for years, which very few have challenged.
So what if I say theres a very great possibility that this could all change, all the card counters would be interested in hearing right? However, just like everything in life, change only happens when many people unite under 1 common goal. Now some may read this and say, "what the hell does this guy know, whats his background". So I'll tell you, NO, I'm not an AP player and No, I'm not a Lawyer. So now youre saying I have no credibility right now and whatever else I have to say doesnt matter on this subject right? So before I go any further, I'd like to see those who are interested on knowing more and those who doubt my credibilty. I request this, for 2 reasons, it aids in my research and gives me satisfaction to saying and proving to those "I told you so"
So please, leave comments, as I write up my article further.
EDIT-DUE TO THE REPLIES ALREADY ABOUT CASINOS CAN KICK YOU OUT FOR WHATEVER REASON? PLEASE SPARE YOUR TIME AND SPACE ON THIS THREAD AND DIG DEEP INTO THE SUPREME COURTS COMMENTS ON THIS MATTER, LIKE I HAVE ALREADY, THANK YOU
