It is criminal that the nation or a company is allowed to offer this game! It is not gambling it is theft!
Isn't the slot machines in the US about the same as this?

Come over to UK

Charlie, if you're sure you can count, why not take a 2 or 3 week trip to the UK with some mates? It rains a lot, but the casinos are actually pretty good around London, Manchester and Glasgow. It's a 18+ age limit so you will be fine, but you have to present picture ID, which can be a problem if you are a regular player. Give us a shout if you ever do and I'll PM you some good casinos

Also there is a rumour that all UK casinos use CSMs... This is total bullsh*t :)

Well every weekend if I could.. But that doesnt matter now right? I can't beat it.
I asked because you said you will have to way till you go to another country, but you may not even get the chance to see your results having to travel that far.

Im curious, what kind of betting spread would be needed to overcome the edge of 6%?
I don't think a 6% edge is beatable at all because you will rarely ever get a count that balances it out and even less of a chance that you will get an advantage.

Hmm.. what do you mean? You mean that its not sure that I will win money? yeah ofc, but if I'll go somewhere to play I will stay for so long that the winnings will show, which means I will play alot of hands :)

Thank you very much!! This is very helpful, because I talked with my friends on going to UK. We will play both blackjack and poker then (I presume they are good poker tables also?). And its great that their limit is only 18+, as I turn 20 this year.
You say the picture ID will be a problem, are their security tight on counters?
Also, you say the casinos are good, what are the general rules? If I come to UK and play it will not be for so long ,maybe two weeks, so I must be sure to earn something (when playing alot ofc).

thanks again for reaching out :)

Hey

General rules is pretty hard to narrow down. Mostly its S17 and hand dealt from a shoe or ASM. Max/Min bets 2 - 300 5 - 500 25 - 1000 this is the usual around London and Manchester. A bad rule is no peek, so you could double down and split, only to find the dealer has an ace under his 10. Mostly 6 decks, some places 4 :)

Security isn't heavy on counters... most of the smaller, not well know casinos don't even consider them a threat.
