Wikipedia has heard of shuffle tracking:

I wish I had never started the topic! lol.

I am perhaps trying to say (without getting mixed up) that you have more chance to make a profit with knowledgeable players. I am not trying to make profit (well I am am), but not really relying on it, if you know what I mean.

Of course I don't know what cards are coming, but I do think that (maybe stupidly of course) with another sane player at the table, you have a decent chance of profit.

May have to re-think.

No, but that's the whole point. Asking as YOU make the right decision based on your cards and the dealer's card then it is completely irrelevant whether you are sat with blackjack pros or with clueless people such as girgy. (think he's on holiday, should get away with this)

A pretty famous pro player is also one of the best blackjack players in the world.

He is incred at shuffle tracking. Saw him in action once. He could predict when aces were coming with unerring accuracy.

It was scary really.

Who was that Keith, Andy Bloch?

I spoke to a women who was working at the casino, about 8 yrs ago, I asked her if u could ever beat a casino, she said, Yes u can, however the majority of people who come in and play can't quit once in front so that's how they make money in the end.

My advice to you would be to not bet on any of these games, as you will only end up in a world of pain and misery, I worked for the Chinese for 10 yrs, I met so many Chinese people along the way, who couldn't speak hardly any English, had families back home to support, used to work 70 hrs a week for £280 and within 24 hrs there wages would be gone to a casino or a bookmaker.

I've known people who have lost there business's, house's and family over gambling.

Yes if you are controlled enough to walk away, and not let the 'big wins' affect you then maybe, but this is very very rare. A young boy used to play it, won like 80k within 2 weeks, 3 months later he is getting credit cards and loans to fund this addiction.

Pain & Misery are the only 2 words you should associate with a casino IMO.
