Advantage Play at High Limit Blackjack Tables

Since I'm kind of starting over, can we launching this blog? After a couple of years of inactivity, I have decided that I should start from scratch ambient by introducing the subject of advantage play at blackjack.


In the world of casino gaming, blackjack stands out as a beacon for those who seek to tip the odds in their favor. Known as advantage play, this set of strategies is particularly potent at high limit blackjack tables, where the stakes are as elevated as the potential rewards.

At the core of advantage play is card counting, a technique that involves tracking the ratio of high to low cards left in the deck. Contrary to popular belief, card counting doesn’t require a photographic memory. It’s a skill that can be honed with practice, allowing players to make more informed bets. In high limit games, where bet sizes are larger, the impact of card counting can be significantly amplified, leading to substantial gains.

Another aspect of advantage play is shuffle tracking. This advanced technique involves following clusters of cards during the shuffling process to predict their location in the next shoe. While it requires keen observation and a deep understanding of shuffling techniques, it can be incredibly rewarding at high limit tables.

Moreover, advantage players often look for dealer tells or unintentional clues given by the dealer that can reveal information about their hole card. This edge can be quite valuable in high limit games, where exploiting even the smallest advantage can lead to large profits.

However, casinos are well aware of these strategies and employ measures to counteract them, such as using continuous shuffling machines or imposing restrictions on bet spreads. Therefore, the successful advantage player must not only master the techniques but also excel in the art of camouflage, blending in with the crowd to avoid detection.

In conclusion, advantage play at high limit blackjack tables is not a guaranteed path to riches. It demands discipline, a sharp mind, and an unwavering commitment to strategy. For those who are up to the challenge, the high limit tables offer a thrilling arena where skill and daring can turn the classic game of blackjack into a lucrative endeavor.

What's the surveillance room like? Repost

This is a repost of a post I made about a year ago, but I feel like it bares s repeating. Enjoy. I got another good question last week, from a reader wanting to know what a surveillance room is like, how it is laid out and how it is staffed and run.  So here goes. I have worked in surveillance departments at six different casinos in the last 25 years. Some very small (300 slots, 6 blackjack tables) and some very big (3000 slots, 60-70 table games of all kinds). When I started in the early 90's it was all VCRs and not all cameras were recorded all the time. We used a lot of "multi-plexers" and "quad screens". A multi-plexer used one VCR to display and record up to 16 screens on one monitor. Since the VCR still records at 30 frames per second, that meant that if you did a review on any one of those 16 screens you would be looking at a "freeze frame" effect, where you only got 1.8 frames per second of the shot you were looking at. A quad would record ...

Reader question.

OK well, I'm back to posting after about a 6 month. I absence. Sorry I was in and out of the hospital with a bunch of problems, but I'm all better now So i noticed that during my abs. Since I got a few questions from readers, I would like to answer one of them now. So the question is, how much money should you take with you to the casino? the answer is of course, if depends. If you happen to be one of the lucky people who live in a jurisdiction where legalize cambling is allowed. And it's a place that you go to to have fun or relax, Or just have some excitement in your life, then that will be a different amount that you will want to take with you as opposed to someone who is making a trip to Vegas that they make only once a year. And if you live Nevada, like I do and you go into casinos all the time, then that will be a different answer as well. As a general rule of thumb. I don't walk into a casino. Unless I have a $100 that I am willing to lose. If you don...
