    As a card counter myself, I think I speak for many counters in saying the hardest part about the process is the emotions of playing, particularly having to go through them alone. These videos are great and help me to relate to someone besides the thoughts in my head lol. Love the vids!

      @@337DimesI mean if they weren't tipped they'd need to be paid more by the casino so I'd wager they're rather neutral on the matter. It's a tiny amount of money anyway relative to what they're managing, I know it all adds up but yeah there's no way they care enough to warrant saying they "hate" it. My guess is they're mostly indifferent and just accept it as a business expense. I don't disagree with you at all though about them only caring about the bottom line, but in this case what can they do? Nothing, so why care about it.

      Card counting has been a thing for decades. There are continuous shuffling machines and paying 6:5 on a bj, which make it unviable to count. But tbh, the effort that it is required and the amount of $$$ lost is not that massive for a casino in general from counting.

      @@DoomaBJ Nope. I am a basic strategy player. Your videos are great because they are not fake. I'd love to get to your level. No worries if you'd rather not say how. I understand.

    at 3:19 why did you not hit your 12 vs the dealer's 2? Was this a deviation due to the count?

      When true count is above 3, you stand 12 vs 2.
