I love playing pitch BJ either double or single deck, as I'm sure most of you do as well. It's occured to me that I could make better decisions if I were able to see the "down" cards of the other players, especially when contemplating insurance. Occasionally the players next to me will show me their cards or I'm able to look at their cards and incorporate them into the count. I've never heard anyone from the pit ever say that players could not look at each others cards. Now to take this one step farther. If I knew 2 or 3 guys that were playing with me at the table we could devise a system where if they have 2 ten point cards they would tuck them immediately, or if it was a pair of two's or simialr hand where the value is +2 they would hold them above the table. You could come up with other signals for either a +1, -1, or 0 hand. Here are my questions:
1. Would this be considered cheating by the casino?
2. If it is not cheating would it be worth the effort?
3. If it is cheating would it be worth the risk/effort?
