seems like you would still have to pay a lot of attention... half the time you can just cancel out groups of high and low cards on the table and you barely have to add/subtract...

Default Hmmmm

Now, someone correct me if I'm wrong here. But once you introduce any sort of device at the table, are you not in violation of the law?

Thumbs down Not looking good...

*Sniff* *Sniff* this almost smells like an advertisement.

But seriously…

Myself personally, when learning how to card count I’ve found the toughest part is to learn basic strategy, no so much counting, which this device does little to do to help with that. But more importantly when, not if, you get caught you will help in a trail with your peers as the jury. Now, your peers will be people from the community where the casino that you were trying to cheat is located. Most communities, especially Indians, thrive off the revenue that the casino brings in, and I doubt they will be nice or understanding when sentencing comes along. 5 years in prison isn’t worth something that takes maybe two weeks to learn to do…

How are they going to find out ?
plus, counting the cards doesnt mean win for sure.
I am not doing an advertisement... I posted to see maybe if anyone has used it and how was it.
there are ways to use a normal watch to count or even use chips to count so seriously they wont put me in the prison. However, I do think people who do not know how to play the game by the book and play in the casino should be in the prison.

Default Most Devices Are Illegal

If you ever watch the History Channel and Breaking Vegas, I’m sure you’ve seen the story on the Tommy Hyland card counting team. Well, the girl with the braids that was arrested wasn’t actually arrested for card counting she was arrested for tracking aces by counting them using the beads on her braids. I know Canada, and the state I live in Michigan, along with Las Vegas, all have laws on the books against using any device besides your mind to count cards. You might not get into any trouble if you only use something like your chips or a wristwatch but when you start to bring computers or computing devices into the mix you’re getting yourself into a whole new ballpark… It’s just not worth it.
