Casino live Blackjack, card counting?

[hazliam]

So I went over to the most degen play, online casino. And there is a section with live Blackjack. Then I notice, isn’t it super easy to card count? I was tallying the high and low card count with a scoreboard tracker and betting $200 when the count gets above +8. I mean I can’t be the only one that notice this.

So how does the casino prevent losses?

On most live online BJ they cut off over one third the deck with limits the opportunities to find a running count of plus 8 or a true count of plus 2 or greater.
Also they actually all have software that detects card counters. The software can tell exactly what edge they have on individual players.
Example player 1 plays the game to 98.35%
Player 2 to 99.38%
Player 3 to 100.46%
All based on your basic strategy, Variations in basic strategy, bet sides.
If your winning and playing the game with an over 100% edge they will take action against you.

OTWinner.... If your winning and playing the game with an over 100% edge they will take action against you.
That means you are never allowed to win at an online BJ table?

That make sense, because it look soooo easy to beat. You can literally just sit to the side and jump in and play $1k hands when the count is good. You don’t even need to wait for a new shoe.

You can win, as long as you are losing on average.

or

Like at sportsbooks, you can win till they can’t handle your action anymore.

Do yourself a favor and just pass on that. They have so many fvcking bots jumping on and off and switching from in front of you or in back of you. Then you have the idiot you play behind that takes the worst possible hit/double/split. Just say no brother. Remember they know what will be dealt out ahead of time. I have sat back and waited for someone to really make a bad move than play the next 2 or 3 hands as it appears it fvcks up their rigged deck and turns favorable to the player. It always finds a way to correct itself but for 2 or so hands it is $$.

I almost never go into the BJ anymore but just pay attention to the baccarat. That can be beat if you are not greedy and have the will power to walk away with a profit. Just remember these decks are set up to bust all the Marty bettors. Lightening does strike and strikes often on their live tables. Really find a quiet place where you won't be interrupted and have an understanding of all of the different so called can't lose "Marty systems" in the back of your head. Your brain should be firing away as you see them all being set-up ahead of time. All of this means nothing though if you don't have the will power to walk away and be happy with the winnings. The longer you spend there and the more often you go in for the "easy money" will eventually catch-up and bite you. Greed is a bitch...

Oh sports got me plenty busy, but was intrigued by the notion it. Because coming from online poker, everyone plays with HUD that gathers hand frequency. Seems so easy to create a bot that only plays when you get abuse nice odds. That bot can just watch 10 tables and play with a positive count.

I think the fun part, like sports betting is finding a system and see can you break it to gain a positive EV.

Kind of like the dude that broke Hong Kong’s jockey club for a few hundred million.

Good luck hazliam, Tanko and Enikk with all your wagers. Be careful with baccarat the house edge of slightly over 1% catches up with you. Good advice money management and the ability to step away with a profit.
