    Is counting with chips a "device"?

    Prosecute? They wouldn't arrest you for using cheques. One pass shuffles, sections A, B. C, D, E, F (shoe, breaking the sections down by the full deck).

    Is counting with chips a "device"?

    Your thoughts, please ...

    Mayor lets cut the crap. Either you'll do it or you won't. I've seen better men than you sell their souls. For fame (fleeting), prestige (ego?), money (how much is enough), to feel important (self worth, self esteem). Some do it or threaten to do it out of revenge, spite or to see how many...
