Shuffle Tracking on Youtube (NEW)

Now I haven't watched this yet but Ill just share my thoughts on it. First off is this is anything like you trying to peddle your count on here this is just going to be flamed. Now if your methods are actually legit and have merit then they definatly should not be on youtube. Lets at least make the casino people work to try and find information on shuffle tracking and not make it as easy as possible for them.
Anybody who tracks cards like in this video will be poor very soon. I think if this video is the only one of its kind, then there are one too many.
Just a couple of points:
1. The shuffle is not correct of that of the Bellagio or the Mirage. They take from the middle stack on the first pass not the second
2. There will never be a time in a 6 deck 2 pass stepladder shuffle where you could track 39 cards without them being totally diluted beyond a measurable advantage. Even with it being set up with 39 tens and aces only, which will never happen, the track advantage was weak.
3. The video does not teach how to properly gauge the strength of the track and bet accordingly. Its just a guess and a gamble here with some steaming at the end due to losing. If you were winning would you have changed your betting pattern?
4. How much of your track was cut out of play? Did you even consider that when betting? Did you ever consider based on how spread out the track became to not play it, or at least play it differently.
Please any fledgling shuffletrackers, do not use this video as a learning tool, you will not be successful. JSTAT, I don't care if you would've won 10 grand in this video, it would've been imeasurable luck. Actually I take that back, it would've been 100% luck. You don't work for the casinos do you?

The demonstration in the video reveals how amaturish every piece of information you hand out is. I don't even need to read the rest of your posts to work that out.
You didn't demonstrate any of the practical realities of shuffle tracking, the degree of accuracy you used - which needs to be very high to track successfully - was a non-existent estimate and you show no consideration for bankroll management or betsizing.
The only thing that you did get right in this video is that a slug with more T and A's is better for the player - but anyone who's spent more than 30min reading about counting should know that.
I'll strip this down right now - you haven't made any money counting, if you have been barred anywhere it's not because you were winning money. Trash the fantasy world ego trip and start listening to some of the poster's here that actually know what they're doing - calling Bojack, Maz and Sonny.
RJT.

This is spot on.
JSTAT, seriously dude, you have WANNABE written all over you. You can't fool the pros on here. Hell, you couldn't even fool me. Let's see, whatever could have given it away:
Was it the fact that you stood on 14 vs. a Q?
Or when you failed to take a card on 10-6 vs. a Q?
Maybe because you doubled a bet for no good reason?
Could it have been when you "let it ride" for $400 on a serious negative count?
Perhaps those high quality chips you were using, the ones with the nice plastic sound? You must really be bringing in the money to get those kind of props for your video.
Not to mention the annoying video work, you can't afford a tripod?
And your narration was weak, try rehearsing a little more next time.
I'm sure there's more I missed, but I can't stand to watch it again.
Now, I don't claim to be an expert by any means. The difference is I'm on here to learn from the people who know what they're talking about, not to impress someone with how much I think I know. So to everyone out there trying to learn; "Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain."
Seriously, go write a novel or something. You'd be good at fiction.

I demonstrated the actual shuffling procedure of the Bellagio before I was barred from playing in the 90's for shuffle tracking. Frank Sinatra is singing "Fly Me To The Moon" and "I Got You Under My Skin" in the video. A winning combination. Maybe someone on this website can make a better video and post it on Youtube
