CSMs, internet etc.

Hi,

I recently got back into playing blackjack again. Brushed up on my BS and was interested in putting some work into card counting, but when I made a visit to my local casino (crown melbourne) I noticed they have installed continous shuffling machines (one2six).

I really enjoy playing, but I'm not really that interested in slowly losing money to the casino. Any strategies at all for these machines? Or is that pretty much the end of line for me? Trips to other casinos are not really an option at the moment.

For those people who have have CSMs at their local casino, where/how do you still play? Or do you? Is there anything on the internet that can be 'beaten'?

thanks!

None that are widely known. If anyone is profiting off of these, they've kept it to themselves. Some of the earlier machines had problems with repetition, but I'm pretty sure the machines people use now are pretty solid.

Bummer. Guess blackjack is dead for me than, aside from a quick game every now and then for fun.

Ok , they could be beaten, but very difficult.
Makes no fun, if there is a very persitant hardliner,
there are opportunities by sequenzing.

I would prefer trading commotities, if you are an advantageplayer,
and know why you have an edge, try that.
