I just got back from a 4 day trip and learned a new trick. I spent lots of time playing double deck heads-up against the dealer. I pretended that I was big time superstitious. I kept saying things like "I have a hunch that a 9 is coming", etc. When the count on a given deck got sufficiently negative, I told the dealer, "I have real bad vibes about this deck. Please shuffle up." And he/she did!! I could then control the game on bad counts. Of course, on nicely positive counts I let the play proceed and made some $$.
Has anyone else used this technique?
