      @Luna’s Rambles…..it isn’t about “luck of the draw” at all, though.
      Casinos are in business and the odds are in their favor. That’s why casinos make money. The rules exist for them to make money.
      If you will, it is NOT the casino’s money you win- it is the money of OTHER people.
      Some people will make money, others will lose money, the casino will make money because those who lose, lose more than the people who win. That’s where the casino’s profit comes from. Make no mistake, nobody wins the casino’s money.
      Casinos have no desire for people to change the odds , which are set in THEIR favor, to odds that are more favorable. ie Counting cards do not allow the player to win, but simply create odds that are more favorable to them. Casinos love the odds, so long as they favor them.

      They don't want you to play a game of luck with too much skill. How is this so hard for people to understand? They make money from house advantage, losing the house advantage is giving away money. They are the bookies, they are not playing the game with you. I would argue that they shouldn't play Blackjack if they don't have a solution to the problem but suggesting that a business expose themselves to loss is just unreasonable.

      And to your point, many casinos do basically what you're saying. They have half deck shoes, or continuous shufflers. But the general gambler doesn't like those. It slows down the game for the former. And people don't trust the CS.

What would be twisted is any law which stated that a person can openly disobey and participate in games even after the casino says no, because that means that the property owner loses power over private property, as well as meaning a lot of fights and lawsuits and complications when really the casino has the same right to say no, as u do to tell someone to leave your house.

      I'd like to hear a lawyer's opinion on this. I'm not a lawyer, but I feel the following argument sets an important precedent.
      This thug says they're providing a service and can refuse to cash out if ID isn't shown. In other words, he's banking on the "It's a service so I can make up whatever rules I want to cash you out". If that's the case, it means he could refuse to cash people out regardless of whether or not ID is shown. This means they can take people's money by telling them they can cash out, then decide not to cash out for whatever arbitrary reason's they choose.
      This is fraud.

      Its just how law work. They are allowed to do that to discourage underages from gambling. If they know cheating the system is 100% loss, they will never get the money out, they are discouraged.
      Thats why, when I worked in a convience store, I would take payment first, then ask for ID, and if ID was underage or person did not have ID, I would enter 0.00 in cash register and then push the "TIP 100%" button (meaning the sum registred in the card machine were allocated 100% to TIP) on the cash register. That was free money for the store. So when underage attempted to buy alcohol, they would lose both money and product.
      And since they were underage, they would just get a laugh from the grown ups when they said: "I attempted to illegally buy alcohol as a underage and they kept all my money!".
      This ONLY works in countries where the law says its illegal to give alcohol to underage, but legal to sell alcohol to underage. (Sweden is such a country, the laws says you may not physically give alcohol to a underage, regardless of its for money or for free, but you can legally sell alcohol to a underage, as long as you dont give the bottle to the underage).
      If the law says its illegal to both sell and give alcohol to underage, this trick don't work, since then its illegal to also sell (as in completing a monetary transaction) the alcohol to underage even if you don't give the alcohol to the underage afterwards.
      In sweden you can actually BUY a pistol without a weapon's license. You just wont get the pistol until you show a license. Its because the law says its legal to sell weapons to those lacking the license, but you may not physically transfer a pistol to someone lacking a license.

The establishment reserves the right, as a private entity on private property, to refuse service to anyone they please - as well as the right to request anyone to leave their property. Neither of which requires the individual to identify themselves. No casino, or bar, may press criminal charges for someone refusing to identify, because they have no legal authority to do so - as it's _not_ a crime, or violation of _law._
      The only thing you were correct about was whether or not a bar can ask for an ID at any time. Yes, they may ask anyone, at any time, for identification. In fact, any random person walking down a sidewalk has the right to _ask_ for anyone's identification. That does _not_ mean there's any legal obligation to fulfill the request. Ask any practicing Washington state attorney, or just use google. It's free.

      They probably suspect people when they bet normally and then all of a sudden start betting larger. It would take much to review footage and count the cards during playback and compare that to when the bet amount increases.
      That's why its better for them to work in teams. The "counter", so to speak, doesn't alter his betting at the table and then signals for the high roller to join the table and start betting.

      Counting cards unsuccessfully actually probably caused him to lose more than if he were flat betting. When the count is high you increase your bet, potentially substantially, to take advantage of a high expected value on those hands. Some bad luck (variance) on those hands could cause a fast and large downswing. On that day the casino profited off of the variance, while in the long run the casino industry would lose money on the positive EV

    As for the whole trespass thing and the casino needing your info for that. Uh, I don't think that is true. All the casino needs to keep you out of their casino is your picture which they can pull from the security cameras.
    IF the law says that you don't need to give them ANY info to cash out if it's under $10,000, that means that you don't have to give them ANY info for any other reason either.
    If they want your info, they damn well better be filling an actual restraining order on you. And to do that, they need the cops present. (or some other way to get your info to the cops.. which would be them asking your your ID and again, you don't have to give it to them)..
    I could be wrong, but it seems that this is the case to me.
    Businesses have been excluding people for thousands of years without ID or personal info.
    They just wanted your ID for their database.
    So, the cop was WRONG about the casino needing ID to "trespass you" . The casino could just tell the cop they want you out and the cop can just escort you out. Then it's up the casino to keep you out on their own.
    .. unless they get a restraining order. And if they do again, the casino has to go through the cops. And I highly doubt a cop would actually allow a casino to get a restraining order for counting cards.
    I sure as hell wouldn't if I was a cop. I'd probably laugh at the casino management, tell them you aren't breaking any laws nor are you actually harassing anyone and walk away.

If your betting is not too aggressive and you don't lose all your winnings with a bad loss streak, sure. But if there is a bad loss streak when the numbers tell you otherwise, then there has to be some luck involved.

      What works for some might not work for others, and the crazy thing about statistics and calculations about averages is you can easily lose when you expect to win. This is the Gambler's Fallacy, and yes it does apply to Blackjack in the sense that you are expecting to win based on statistics. Gambler's Fallacy is most well known for the Monte Carlo incident where a game of roulette landed on black 26 times in a row. That's a one in 66.6 million chance to happen, yet it did. People lost millions that day because they expected a (roughly) 50/50 chance to balance out and for red to come up more and more as the spins went on. Statistically, red should be coming up more often, absolutely. But if you are working with small sample sizes, and you were unlucky enough to sit down right before this streak started, you probably lost money on it.
      Counting the cards in successive deals from an unshuffled card deck, sure you can calculate that and win easy. However many casinos counteract card counting by adding more decks to the mix. The average is 6 decks, and some even run 8 decks. This severely impacts your odds, and while it may still be in your favor after a bunch of low cards, the odds don't change so much that you can guarantee high cards come out for you. Especially with others in the hand. There is always a chance the 1 in 66 million is going to happen to you, and with card counting from 6 or 8 decks, your odds are much more likely. Hence the Gambler's Fallacy.

You bet small and you play over the span of hours over multiple days. You should keep that in mind when card counting. You play so that luck _isn’t_ a factor. That’s the point.
      Your whole spiel about the gambler’s fallacy doesn’t refute anything I’m saying. I’m not sure why you took time out of your day to say that.
      Again, you count cards over hundreds if not thousands of hands. You bet a small amount and increase the bet proportional to your edge. You scale your bets vs your total initial investment so that the chance of you zeroing out your funds become as likely as winning the lottery.

      Casinos still retain not only the structures put in place when they were mafia-run, but also the lingo and the attitude of power at the higher levels. Where else can you work with someone whose title is The Pencil?

      Casinos certainly contain some scummy parts - by their very nature, they're a 'funhouse' where people go in and essentially siphon off money to the owners. While individuals may get lucky here and there, there are so many people betting so often that the 'long run' is basically consistent, and the long run from the casino point of view is +EV on every game (except niches like - for example - an AP Blackjack player with a high enough count to gain the EV edge).
      So to begin with, you have a business where they're siphoning off money from everyone, and they usually don't care who. The pensions of the elderly; that poor guy on his last hundred dollars who is so desperate he doesn't care about the odds. They will gladly take every last dollar from people that can't afford to lose said dollars. Individuals within the casino may be decent people, but the business itself is pretty heinous. It's also very profitable - if I could turn off the empathy centre of my brain, and I was a multi millionaire, I'd definitely look at starting a casino or sportsbook (which generally operate in the same way).
      And because the casino's whole profit structure is based around all the games giving them the edge, they want to squash any interference with that notion immediately - so you get pit bosses, and in some cases, super aggressive pit bosses, who will do whatever they need to to get rid of players who have the edge over them.

Anyway, this series is superb.

      tv trash is always geared toward the lowest common denominator. also they expect ppl to b tuning in and out randomly along with commercial breaks so you have to sum up ur idea into a very small simplistic catchy pitch while also being dramatic n exciting to hook ppl. The repetition comes from the expectation of ppl to be in and out every 5-10 mins without any clue what they just stumbled into.
      So basically, tv is engineered to target a horde of drunken toddlers with severe ADHD.

    Just as an FYI, in the US, I'm quite sure that trespassing laws generally require you to refuse to leave in order to be legally trespassed. This means that as long as you leave when asked, you don't even need to show ID to the police. Certainly do your own research and take it with a grain of salt, but I just want to point that out in case it helps.

    • @Meekerextreme
      @Meekerextreme 2 роки тому +1

      No, you got to show your ID to police as they were called to investing a potential crime and States have rules that you need to be able to identify yourself if needed. This is why all States have State ID's because you don't need a drivers license as proof of ID. However we are a population that drives for the most part so it's common to use that as an ID. I'm suspecting people that might have grown up in NYC or other large cities there might be a bunch that don't ever get a drivers license because they never own a vehicle, thus a State ID. Some States I believe it's free even.

    As an ex croupier (dealer) i loved it when a card counter came to the table. They were diff to the average player in the confidence about cards. But in our casino we had what was called a big C. This cut the cards to 80% of the original cut of what an ordinary customer would get, but near the end of the shoe (8 deck of cards) the card counter would start maxing out bets and hit nearly 90% of the time. Which as a croupier was cool to see someone winning for a change. Since this was 20 years ago they were abit smarter and would win for about 3 shoes then leave till the next week.
