Actually, they do the exact same thing, they laugh at our stupidity, so many thinking they can win in the long run and just as you can claim you know some who make a living off casinos, they know plenty of card counters who went broke.

I, and a lot of others, thought they were stupid. Here we were, walking into the local casino to be greeted by the pit and the dealers and chuckling that they had no clue we were great card counters. Each time we walked away with cash, they were pleasantly saying "see you next time" and we were thinking "those dumb idiots, they dont even know they have become our ATM machines". Because they were so damn stupid, we abandoned the minimum cover and raised our bets just as the count went up. Then one day you walk in the pit does not return your greeting, the dealer does not meet your gaze as he cuts off half the shoe, even the hostess avoids you and you are done!

Nah, by over estimating their stupidity, we lose our local casinos, get backed off other places.
