What other techniques do you use besides counting, hole card play, or shuffle tracking? Or is this too sensitive a question to ask?

Let's see now... there's promotion abuse and jackpot chasing too.

I don't claim to be a pro, but I would say "opportunity analysis" would have to be listed as a valuable skill.

Comp Hustling, Ratholing (pull & drag), & pattern recognition (sequencing) for me.

AM,

Are you still using a technique you mentioned previously: pretending to be drunk and spilling beer to the cards when TC gets too low?

Find weak players at a table that are willing to listen to your advice so that they don't make stupid mistakes.

Perhaps better to do just the opposite for camo. Find a ploppie who knows it all and is willing to tell you how to play. Ask his or her advice on some marginal hands and sometimes take the wrong advice to look as clueless as the ploppie.

That's something you don't want to do except in very rare situations- look at the time it will take them to clean up the liquid- you'd be better off getting up and going elsewhere and starting a new shoe.

Normally I would only do something like that to turn the floor away from something else that is going on.
