    Putting up with other people at the table...

    There are other players at the table? If I have a losing hand, such as 16vT, and the count is positive, so I'll stand, and someone objects, then I say, "sir, you're welcome to buy the hand from me for what I have in the circle and play it how you want." Usually it shuts them up. Sometimes I...

    I can answer any clumping question here.

    It's only illegal if it's stolen property. This is a shuffler, not Fentanyl.

    Understanding Illustrious 18 - Player 9 vs Dealer 2

    And you probably aren't aware that there's a long-time AP who has uses the handle Captain Jack. He's mainly into sports betting now, so you won't find him here, but it may still cause some confusion.

    AP Player at the Rivers in Des Plains

    Must be a member of Colin's cult. The BJA guys don't know what AP etiquette is. They just jump right in and pound away, other APs be damned. I had one a few months ago jump in on my table and after a little bit had the audacity to ask me not to spread to two hands when the count got good...

    Odds of losing 20 hands in a row without any pushes?

    I'll give you that you didn't exactly say "factory fresh," but this is what you said, which is essentially the same thing: How do you know it was even a true Shufflemaster machine and not a Chinese counterfeit? I do agree with you that the ability to read card values should not exist in these...

    Odds of losing 20 hands in a row without any pushes?

    Exactly. KJ, unless you received the machine from Shufflemaster directly (which wouldn't be possible as they don't sell to individuals), how can you claim it being factory fresh? I bought an Izod shirt from a street vendor on the corner of Canal and Broadway in NYC. It was factory fresh and...

    Question for seasoned profitting Black Jack players (2 deck or 6 deck?)

    It didn't start out heads up, but fortunately, became heads up pretty quickly with all the mall cards coming out and the dealer making hands. I forget exactly, but think I was betting 2x600 and barely varied my bet, if at all, past the midpoint of the shoe. And needless to say, I left the...

    Question for seasoned profitting Black Jack players (2 deck or 6 deck?)

    Not long ago, I had a 6D shoe go positive very early. I dropped 10K in the first half of the shoe, then recovered it in the second half and finished the shoe net zero!
