I found Stephenhow’s article about trying to pull a small edge from Continuous Shuffle Machine blackjack: https://discountgambling.net/2012/07/27/counting-csm-blackjack-ev/
I’m not looking for theory-only takes. I’m trying to find out if anyone here has real results (or solid sims) over multiple sessions, especially in places where CSM is basically the only option.
If you tried it, what did you observe over time?
- Rules and limits you played under (H17/S17, DAS, RSA, 3:2 vs 6:5, table min/max)
- How “fast” your CSM seems to dilute any useful signal
- Rough sample size (sessions or hours), and whether you wonged, table-hopped, or just played through
If you had an unusually good run, I’d still love to hear it, but the sample size and conditions matter a lot here.
