6 deck (new)

[jaimedhg]

Hi ive only been playing blackjack for a few months, at my local casino in spain , they play with 4-6 decks and they put the cards back into the shoe after about 1/1.5 decks. From what ive read there isnt much point counting cards as theres so many left ( i think). Could any1 recommend any strategies that could work or any counting method for these circumstances?
Thanks

I think you CAN beat it but it would take a very large bet spread.

In other words it's not worth it.

It sounds like you are talking about a CSM (continuous shuffle machine) where they reload after a deck or a deck and a half. The rules would have to be pretty phenomenal for this to be worth your time.

i've never actually tried this: https://discountgambling.net/2012/07/27/counting-csm-blackjack-ev/
my guess is, like said above, the better the rules the better the results.
edit: that said, upon my very first attempt to sit down and count cards, it turned out much to my surprise, the game was dealt from a csm
