How Sweet is This...

In all reality it also depends on the number of decks in the shoe. I forget the reasoning behind it, but the house take goes up as the number of decks in the shoe goes up. Plus, it's fairly easy to count cards in blackjack up to about four shoes, then it gets prohibitive. Yes geniouses can do it up to six deck shoes, but four decks is about the limit that the average person could count. And remember, it's not illegal to count cards, just severely frowned upon.


Disclaimer: I don't play blackjack or any other table games unless I'm really ,really bored. Just had a buddy who could count and he won a decent chunk of change over about a six month period.
