Counting against constant shuffling

#1
I'm fairly new to blackjack and was wondering is it possible to count cards, and would u advise playing, at a table that after every hand places cards back in the shoe for shuffling. it's the only casino within 3 hours of me, i want to become a professional player.

No

The continuous shuffler eliminates any possible way to get an advantage by card counting if they are putting the discards back into the shuffler immediately after the hand.

Well, actually I'm slightly overstating the case, as another thread here asks about ways to exploit CSMs. However, for all practical purposes, you're wasting your time.

It sounds like you'll need to travel elsewhere to find a game.
