This is a topic that came up on another discussion, but probably worthy of it's own thread.
If you've been locked out of a live (online) casino or particular live game and you believe this is because of an advantage play technique you were successfully using then please let us know about it.
What can a player do if he keeps winning then gets banning?
Play somewhere else. Fortunately there are plenty of options.
Not much you can do if a casino (online or traditional) decides they don't want your custom.
I don't know of any (1st hand) cases of people being banned from online casinos for consistently winning.
I do have a friend who has been banned from 3 Australian licensed online sportsbooks (Sportsbet.com.au, bet365.com.au, IAS) for consistently winning. They don't give that as the reason...line is something like

If you overcome the house edge, be attentive.
Hi bvlgari,
Interesting email. Call me a skeptic, but it reads more like casino PR than a bona fide player ban notice.
I'm sure the online casino industry is happy to have suggestions that their house edge can be overcome circulating. It's good for business.
But how on earth a player can gain an edge over the house by card counting playing either:
RNG - where each deal is from a new, reshuffled deck (ie counting not possible), or
Live - where shoes are re-shuffled halfway, so it's not possible to take advantage of a count,
Is beyond me.
As for roulette systems...love to know how much money casinos have made from players thinking Martingale etc is going to help them beat the casino. Suspect it's a lot.
Don't suppose you can reveal more details about your email (which casino?...was it you?...did you break the house:p )

I hope no one gives any body hard time when winning some...thx
Hi bvlgari,
you sound like your site expects every players to go home with empty pockets, anyone player with winning money will consider as a cheater, right?
A compendium of the emails:
"Throughout my investigation I noted several different patterns ......
.......I’ve also read the below chain and will state that we do not suspect anyone who wins of fraudulent behavior, put simply, some people win and some people lose. As I’m sure you know, the house has the edge which is publicized and well known, if a casino simply dismissed all winners then we wouldn’t be in business ......."
Draw your own conclusion. Overcoming the HE in the long run and a certain playing pattern seems to be dangerous.
The casino may have rights to ban any player whom it doesn't want in its site, but all his money including winning money should be returned. To me, i don't see a player with winning some money is dangerous to casino. Casinos have been collected millions dollars out of players daily, not being seen dangerous to no body.
I think every player should play like an idiot to make casino smiling.
Those dealers were well trained, of course, they know card trick...watch out guys!
I imagine the dealers smile inside also when players complain at live tables that it is fixed, or that they are doing some card tricks.Quote:

Not card tricks.
Not all the game rules (or how to play the games)
When any player wins some money, they think he/she is cheating or counting cards. Casino wins all the time, so some of its dealers must be well trained or/and some of them are specialized in dealing cards who have the abilities to do card trick for sure. FBI needs to step up on this matter.
Have you ever played at the various studios around the world?
Because the only real requirement for 'most' dealer vacancies is the ability to speak English. I know for sure! :)
That, and pleasing on the eye ;)
& I suggest you never play any casino RNG games if you are so skeptical of live dealer games.
