Taking on the casinos

[StandardDeviant]

Hey guys,

All of us employ card counting among other techniques to gain an advantage over the house. Obviously, the main goal for most of us is personal gain, but I don’t think I am alone in wanting the casinos to lose money. In my mind, casinos are right up there with tobacco companies in regard to their ethical nature. What are some good ways to really go after the casinos’ bottom line legally? Card counters and advantage players are but a drop in the bucket of casino profits. It would be really nice to damage them financially as much as possible, legally of course. Any ideas?

Let me get this straight. You hate casinos, so you go to the casinos you hate, and engage in the hated games casinos offer, so you can make some money and in the process damage the hated casinos, so they will go out of business and no longer offer the hated games you desire to play, so you will no longer have an opportunity to ply your hard-gained skills to take advantage of the hated casinos, and no longer make the lovely money you long to have.

Do I have that right?

If so, I can save you some time and frustration. Just send your money to me. :laugh:

The poster is like a biblical David (in clutches) facing a 60-feet cast iron Goliath. David only faces Goliath because he values the attention he is getting from the Israelites. David cannot kill Goliath but thinks he can. Now David is secretly afraid to let loose the rocks because he thinks if he actually kills Goliath the Israelites won't revere him anymore.

Now David is just out there in No Man's land flinging "yo'mama" insults at Goliath, who doesn't even notice David. Every now and then David turns his head just to see if the Israelites are still watching.

This metaphor fell flat on its face before Goliath did.

Plus, David speaks Hebrew, Goliath probably doesn't. So he may as well just be singing limricks to him.

If you want to beat the casinos on ethical/moral grounds because they take ploppies money, it may pay to bare in mind that any money won from the casino using AP techniques at some point in time came from a ploppy.

Actually, when you wong in and out of games, you're taking the money directly from ploppies. They're playing all of the bad counts and you're eating cards in good counts. So, if you engage in wonging, you aren't really anymore ethical than casinos when it comes to ploppy money.

theoretically in the long run, the ploppy's if they keep playing, eventually they are going to lose it all back to the casino, whether they are wonged upon on not.
not so in our case, we keep some of what the ploppy's would have lost.
