As far as I know, I do not think cryptocurrency is affected by recession in my country. I can tell because my country is a shithole full of corrupt government officials and I always check the prices of bitcoin in my country. To be fair, the value of our currency is stable and the only thing that a state can have influence on cryptocurrency is that when it intervenes which is by far not happening in my country yet. And I am happy that they haven't intervened yet.

Automatic shuffler is different in continuous CSM. As the word "continuous" define itself. Because there is a shuffling machine too. If that's what you are pertaining on solution 4 maybe you should revise that for clarification.

As for my statement above. I know that you are not pro and my statement is not for you when I write that. I just give some sample of what I observe. Try to read my post again. Zzzzz. Its for the self proclaimed pro that selling tutorial. Card counting is almost obsolete. The reason why some Pro Blackjack still win is because they have there own method to count card which not release in public.

Why you are so defensive if you are not a pro?? Been playing blackjack half of my life dude and I watch and study tons of guide on card counting. Do you want some udemy lesson? I might share you my lectures.

EDIT:

Most of the online blackjack especially evolution gaming shuffle the the whole deck once they consume half of the deck. You can add that part on the solution.
Thanks for the added solution. Sorry if I sounded defensive, we are in the Internet afterall. I don't want lessons by the way, I tend to stay away from gambling as much as I can. You did not mention the pretentious professionals in the last post that I quote, so we got on the wrong foot there. Also no need to brag about how long have you been playing blackjack, I am learning something new when I read posts in this thread.

Also, fuck pretentious pros who sell online courses. The only courses I will spend my money on is language courses or programming.
3703  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Card Counting in Blackjack on: October 14, 2020, 02:56:06 AM
There's a thing called CSM (continuous shuffling machine) and it destroys the card counting method. Most of pro blackjack player claiming that it didn't affect card counts was lying. They are just claiming because they are selling there tutorial online so that gamblers will still interested to purchase there online course but in reality card counting is useless anymore on most casino. You are lucky if you find one that didn't used that.
Isn't the Solution 4 that I put in the thread starter the same as CSM? I think I covered that part.
How can you say that professional players in blackjack are lying? Do you know their minds work?
Why would you get an online course for card counting when I dropped a link in the thread starter? There are a lot of Youtube videos and Google articles that can teach you card counting. I get that I am not an expert but I think if you know how to card count and you know what is the number of decks in the shoe, your confidence in winning goes higher.
3704  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Card Counting in Blackjack on: October 14, 2020, 01:41:19 AM
It's not applicable anymore in big casinos give it up. Casinos have countless cameras as well as personnel all over the casino, making it so that they can notice any odd movements or actions whenever players gamble. Not to mention that you've also stated about a few strategies they use to prevent count carding, such as using more decks than normal and the like. As for the online casinos, they can just simply use again more decks whenever putting out the cards, so that card counting would be a lot more difficult.
I would like to disagree, card counting is still a thing. Did you not read my post, I said there that it wasn't illegal so why would you put cameras for something legal. What is with strange movements that indicates that someone is card counting? Do they have to twitch in a way when they are card counting? The answer is no, again if you are good enough you can count cards mentally and it is subjective perspective if someone is card counting, you might see that they are counting but they might be just having a lucky day. I do not believe it is not applicable, yes if you are a pro then you might be banned but for an average Joe, I do not think so.
3705  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Card Counting in Blackjack on: October 14, 2020, 01:02:55 AM
Yes, the casino won't care if the winnings are always on your side and during the game you still have small losses and have more wins.
But if you continue to win every game and never lose, chances are the casino will act and be investigated with suspicion and there will be follow-up that could hurt you because every casino has rules.
for whatever reason the house will always win and reign.
In my opinion, there is a certain amount where casinos will take action against someone winning. I mean, why would they be alarmed when someone is on a winning streak when the win does not exceed 4-digits. If the rules can hurt the player then they would not be playing there at all, pretty funny that everyone here thinks that casino rules are against the players when in reality there are only few rules needed. And casino does not always win, if you search in Google right now about people winning a lot in casinos, I think your point will be busted.

I have seen Yobit many times and many of my friends are using it. Never been interested because other people that was experienced knew what was coming. One of my friends even have their tokens locked out. I do not know what is the deal with this but shouldn't they be shut down a long time ago?
3707  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Faceter , Another scam project on: October 13, 2020, 11:17:26 AM
You should report to proper authorities because this is a borderless case. You might have a chance reporting it on Interpol or other International authorities that handle fraud cases. The chances are higher because this is a big fraud case and if there is enough people willing to testify in court, then it will make the case go faster.
3708  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: FREE advice for exchanges to make crypto trading easier on: October 13, 2020, 10:19:02 AM
My only problem with exchanges is that they should create a refreshing UX(User Experience) and UI(User Interface). I do not like crowding when it comes to website, they should test their sites on different types of devices because some are neglected and the resulting hodgepodge is a disaster. The services is good but I do not see guides when I peruse some exhcange websites. I do not have a problem when it comes to currency because there are some apps in my country that does the work for converting it.

The fall of British happened a long time ago. When USA became richer than them after the war. The monarch right now is like the empire in Japan, they are the symbol of the country but they are not that involved in terms of politics. Yes, Brexit had its implication but that does not spell doom for the country.
3710  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Card Counting in Blackjack on: October 13, 2020, 07:51:10 AM
I think it's very hard to card count in black jack these days. Going to a physical casino alone without a team is almost impossible. It is very suspicious if you are standing behind a table and just count the deck for 20 minutes and then suddenly jump on the table at start betting the maximum amount. Security will be pretty much be on top of you within the first hour of gambling and you just end up being banned from the casino. With a group of people - multiple spotter - at least 2 gamblers - 1-2 decoys - and a good exit strategy it might be possible.
The claim that there will be a security is an overstatement and an exaggeration. As if an individual will bankrupt the house by just winning in blackjack, there is a reason why there is a variety in casino games. If you want to practice and you put effort into it, I think you can be good at it and do not treat it like a heist movie where you form an Oceans Eleven squad. If you know what you are doing then you can pull it off alone. I do not believe that casinos will just ban someone because they are winning. They do not care about you winning as long as you are losing in a patterned basis.

The link above says that card counting is inefficient in online casinos. They pretty crush down card counters. It seems that card counters has finally found their match. I apologize if I thought that it can be used for online ones. The only online that it will work might be those live blackjack and those can be shitty games because the house can cheat the players with the cards that they are dealing with.
3712  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Card Counting in Blackjack on: October 13, 2020, 05:31:17 AM
This is very old technique and these days you can not make big money with this. House will catch you and will ban you from their casino. Even you will end up beaten by them badly.
If someone beats you up because you are card counting then you can pursue legal actions because card counting is legal and it is a subjective thing. That is why I said in my post that someone might be having a lucky day. That casino you might be playing on is illegal if they are beating you up. It is old but it is reliable if you know how to do it.

For online we don't see that, and then there's the element of RNG (random) that is on their side. They can shuffle every x deal, or not. So I don't think the card counting will be effective in online games.
If you know how many decks there is in the shoe, you can see if you will be winning. There is no RNG in blackjack because there is a fixed number of cards in the deck maybe the chances are what you are talking about. It is unfair for people to just kick you out or ban you because you are winning.
3713  Economy / Gambling discussion / Card Counting in Blackjack on: October 13, 2020, 04:20:57 AM
The basics of card counting is that you assign values from 1, 0, to -1 for each card and adding the value of revealed cards to know if you have the odds in your favor for the next game.

2 to 6 is equal to 1, 7 to 9 is equal to 0 and 10 to Ace is equal to -1.  The card counting technique is complex so I will leave a link.

Casinos have policies regarding this card counter schemes, blackjack having the lowest house edge needs to be supervised because card counters. It is not illegal or cheating but a casino has to earn and they will do anything in their power to prevent losses from card counters.

Here are some of the solutions that casinos employ.
  • Solution 1: When casinos detect that someone is card counting(i.e. 100 bet now then suddenly 1000 bet). They will make a rule where players can't change their bet for the next round.
  • Solution 2: They use 4 decks or 7 decks instead of the standard 6 deck shoe.
  • Solution 3: The casino can call the police for trespassing which is shitty, if the house rules indicates that no card counting and you are caught card counting. This is not a good solution because it might be someones lucky day.
  • Solution 4: They use automatic shuffler so you will have less confidence in your card counting skills

In my opinion, card counting is applicable to online and physical casinos. I think iit works better in online casinos because there is nothing the house can do. There are other solutions and the solutions above are applicable mostly in physical casinos.

What I find really weird is people still falling for these kind of traos. They just need to think why would a billionaire give away free money ? And if he is indeed giving away free money why would he ask for money in the first place .

There is no cure for stupidity and foolishness. Most of these individuals are too greedy to understand that this is a scam and that is why they are falling for it. Ironically there are too many people on Twitter who fall under this category.
That is pretty tragic in my opinion, stupid people who do not know any better are forgivable in some degree but if you combine it with greed, then that is another story. Twitter is a cesspool of inbred, idiots and SJWs, if you ever want to confirm a news, you can go to Twitter to check and the opinions on it is the opposite of the story which is a pretty good fake news checker.

They all say that you can invest in long term or short term, do some trading if you can. I can agree with some that says that they should integrate your business into blockchain. They all ring some value but for me, you should reserve some money for your business when the time comes that you need to re-open your business because you might lose some when you are going to venture in cryptocurrency.
3716  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The impact of the SQUARE and MICROSTRATEGY purchase on: October 12, 2020, 11:48:42 AM
Their impact can both be positive, or negative. Being among the largest HODLers of Bitcoin, they should have the responsibility to help in the development of the Bitcoin economy, and in the aspect of Bitcoin education.
That is what scares me the most, if there are more companies that have a reserve in bitcoin will mean bigger prices because they will buy a lot of reserve as the company that they are. The good thing about this is that most cryptocurrencies will surely experience a price hike and many small hodlers will surely benefit from that.
3717  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Mind Blown Gambling Facts on: October 12, 2020, 09:52:09 AM
I would like to add to the Lootbox Fact. There was a scandal that involved two Youtubers playing this lootbox and gaining rare CS:GO cosmetics thus encouraging their viewers who are mostly children to play on the site and gamble their money to loot boxes. It turns out that the owner of the website is the Youtuber which caused backlash and lawsuit.

Fact 31 is by far the funniest one I have known in regards to gambling, we all know that courtroom is not something to get goofy and have fun and games but then it happened. A pinball game in a courtroom is legendary and should be a milestone in gambling history.

The creator only put that's description but not putting his video into 18+, so underage still can watch them. All back to the parents, if they don't want the kids watching this all content the best thing should not give them electronic like smartphone, laptop or other things.

Even the parent make the phone by limiting all the access with google kids or somethings, but sometimes your kids were more clever than you. So, discuss this topic will never getting an end.
The parent and the business share the responsibility in prohibiting minors into gambling sites. I wouldn't worry that much when it comes to crypto gambling sites, the chances that a child would go to a pornsite is higher than the chances of going to a cryptogambling sites. Besides the fact that there are more things that you need to do before you can play, a child with low attention span will be bored filling those necessary requirements. If it ever comes to worst, I think the fault falls into the parents of the child.
3719  Economy / Economics / Re: Wipe out on crypto vs wipe out on stock market? on: October 12, 2020, 07:26:23 AM
If you know what you are doing with stock market, you will not lose that much money. The only scenario that this could happen is that when the bear run, you panic sell netting negative profits which leads to buying at a more pricier sotkc and doing a cyclic abuse of panic selling. I do not think that we should compare the two, they have inherent and unique traits that is beneficial that we do not see because we tend to focus on which one is better.
3720  Economy / Economics / Re: "Humans will not be replaced by robots very soon" --- yeah right !!! on: October 12, 2020, 06:45:32 AM
Robots will never fully replace human soon because governments are aware about the people's ability to work and get paid.

If technology will evolve like that economy will surely go down at the same time we adopt that kind of development.

Governments are not that dumb to let people suffer from famine and financial crisis when they utilize robots above laborers. We need workers and human labor to strengthen so that our economy will become stable and grow compared to an economy that uses robot in any businesses that they are working.
Governments will not replace their people with machines will be considered but most private companies will surely do it because they become cost efficient and they can work for a whole day. The problem is that they should find a way where people will still benefit even if companies are replacing humans with automation.
