Yeah, I've emailed this guy a few times. Apparently he does a little shuffle tracking and side bet work here and there. I really enjoyed his blog. It really shows the frustration and turmoil he goes through sometimes.

I just really want to find out what countries he's in. Sounds like Borat's village in Kazakhstan most of the time!

edit: actually, sounds like he got beat up on his last trip, playing a game with half a shoe cut off with "only" bets of 2x$250, but still managing to lose $12,000. Dayumn.

Default Is it a good idea

to play a 6D game with 3 decks cut out? Must take really good rules to offset that.

you're right, it really does seem like some shady places he goes to because being able to see all the cards spread out seems very important to this guy.
