:why:

I mean. I know how, they obviously can legally do it. Before I knew what the the term counting cards actually meant, I used to assume it was some form of cheating. But it's just adjusting your betting strategy based on how many cards are left in the deck. It's just using your memory and being smart :dahell:

It's almost equivalent to the NBA banning a player for being too good. I remember reading that Casino security will sometimes try and go distract the people they suspect of counting cards by sending people to talk to them in hopes of messing up their concentration. Then if it doesn't work, they will kick them out and ban them. What the fukk kind of fukk shyt is that:gucci:

shyt is unconstitutional. I'm not even a gambler,but this shyt is fukked up.

I have wondered about it myself.......I cant put my finger on the logic of the courts siding with the casinos on why they should be allowed to punish a strategy

other than some casino operators lobbying for a favorable law to be enacted

Live in Vegas.

Short Nswer: They simply make up their own rulebook as they are privately owned and operated.

If you can get a leg up on the house, you're playing a game with not only the hands you are dealt, but against the house itself finding out.

Greed works both ways. You gotta know when to pack it up and not make much noise for too long.

False equivalence. A gambler being too good will hurt the casino, a player being too good won't hurt the NBA. In fact, it'll be a positive, see Michael Jordan.

nikka did you miss the part where I said almost? It's too early in the morning to be one of those "well actually" nikkas.

@SparkMcGwire did you listen to the 30 for 30 podcast about Phil Ivey and his Asian mastermind chick running game around the world in Blackjack? :youngsabo:

I listened to that and saw the 60 Minutes report on it a couple years back too.

The casino agreed to his terms and then acted like fukkboys when he began vacumming up the cash
