    Day 7: I was playing on a table by myself and two guys joined. I now know what other members have said by being able to spot another card counter as soon as they see them. Lol, one guy did not blend in at all wearing some thrift store attire to an upscale casino. Turns out he didn't know how to count, he only followed his friend's lead while making a few basic strategy errors. Anyways this casino is very tolerant and we're playing together for an hour talking about all sorts of things. Then, the dealer brings up the high limit room. I say something like $100 per hand minimum will either be a blessing or a curse and I don't want to find out. This dumbass (the one who doesn't know how to count) turns to me and says "Yeah you would need a $100,000 bankroll to sit at those tables." What a moron. I finished the shoe and left. Returned later and heard they were asked to leave 5 minutes after I left. Since I was sitting at the table earlier I went through a short lived shit test by the detection dealer before being cleared. How oblivious can you be? Boys, for the love of God watch what you say.

    Result 4 hours of play +555. Reduced spread to 1 hand 1-8 for longevity.

    For Upscale casinos, their table limits are $25 min, so you were probably doing 25-200 a hand. That is good enough to beat the game when head up playing. It looks like you are well prepared. Good luck.

    Always wonder about this. These days people dress like their going to bed while they’re out in public all the time. Unless you’re sitting in a HL room of the nicest strip casinos, it’s hard to imagine looking like a bum raises any flags.

    Looking like a bum and buying in for $700 in crisp $100 bills looks odd to me. Idk if that's a norm for Vegas
