Among the many common myths perpetuated about the game of blackjack are the following: Non-optimal play by other players at your table will effect your returns. Players often grumble and groan at the decisions made by other players at their table under the misguided belief that these decisions will impact negatively on their bet outcomes. In fact, while non-optimal, or even downright ridiculous decisions made by other players may put you off your game, they will have absolutely no impact on the mathematical returns applying to your game. Similarly, where you are positioned on the table relative to other players, good or bad, is irrelevant to the house edge applicable to your bet decisions. Counting cards is illegal. Casinos would certainly like to have you believe this it discourages counting, but that fact is it is perfectly legal and no casino casino can prosecute a player for having counted their way to a massive win at the blackjack table. This isn't to say they will tolerate proficient counters however. All casinos, whether terrestrial or online employ counter measures to detect and or prevent players' ability to effectively count and bet to that count. And of course in the event that these counter measures don't work, there is that old casino fallback of reserving the right to refuse service to whom ever they choose. Live casinos thwart card counting in blackjack by instituting shuffle policies that render counting strategies largely ineffective. |
