In LV, they have the right to confiscate your device, including fingers and legs. That's what the sharp knives are for in the backroom. Plus if your using your brain, they have been known to scoop out your brain with an ice cream scoop and keep it in storage.

Does anybody know of anybody that will teach Ace predictiont? I am willing to either buy a DVD to learn or take lessons.

It is very very rare to run into a shuffle that is vulnerable enough for ace sequencing. If you are trying to do this on a Vegas type shuffle you are wasting your time.

Yes, there are a whole bunch of things a counter and sequencer can do together. As RM states, it is difficult to find a shuffle that will allow you to apply sequencing alone, but in conjunction with other things it has value.

Richard, the relative complexity of a common Vegas 6D shuffle does NOT negate Ace-sequencing with keycards.
Any 3-4 card sequence has an amazing post mixing cohesion in most modern shuffles.
The hard part is not the shuffle, its the keycards memorization. zg

It is. I have used clock dials and chips for remembering two keycards, but what I really want is a way to keep 4, 6, or 8 keycards for shoe games, half that many for pitch games.

You must use mnemonic tricks. zg
