The case of a gambler winning a $100 million jackpot on a slot machine versus a gambler winning $150k over a month playing blackjack while clearly counting cards.
While in the first case scenario, the casino will celebrate the winner of the $100 million and even let the public carry the news on every channel so as to bring in more desperate folks who intend to better their lot by gambling.
In the second instance, the casino is likely to ban the gambler who has won $150k over a month while counting cards at blackjack.
OP, your thread title is mentioning bookmakers, but in your forum thread, you are writing about slot machines and blackjack.
Bookmakers are in the sports betting industry, not the traditional casino industry, even though there are gambling companies, that operate both casinos and sports betting platforms. Anyway, I have two questions:
1.Have you ever seen someone winning 100 million USD on slot machines?
2.Do you still believe that counting cards is a problem for the land based casinos? I personally believe that the casinos have found a way to fight back card counting players, but I don't know how.
Your example isn't clear. I jackpot winner is definitely not a "consistent winner". Are you suggesting that the card counter would be a consistent winner? I'm pretty sure that the casino employees would find out that he is counting cards and they will kick him out of the casino pretty fast.
