This is one of the more intense episodes I've posted! A LOT goes down! Thank you all so much for the support on Project Liberty. I won't be away for very long this time, and I've got some stuff on the way (that's a little different) that I think you'll really like! And of course, lots more card counting too! Follow me on twitter/insta as I'll share some preview stuff there at some point: @stevenbridges
Thank you Steven for bringing us with you during this year of card counting. This is top notch content, and even if for a small amount of time, we'll miss you
Crazy about Del Lago. I've watched your videos from the beginning and always thought it would be cool if you came to a casino near me but thought it wouldn't happen because there are only a handful with table games around the Finger Lakes in NY. Watching this video, the outside looked familiar, the inside looked familiar, then I was able to confirm 100% when I saw the felt, you were at a casino I've played at hundreds of times in my backyard! Glad you made some money, I've probably given them 40K over the years playing there.
Even though $175k is a drop in the bucket for these casinos, it still brings a smile to my face when you guys get the best of them to any degree. Another great video, as always
It's insane how these scumbags are even legally allowed to operate... A den of scam where if one person dare knowing how to play and actually turn in a profit, they are banned. What a fucking joke
Its so impressive how thorough you are in your efforts to protect your secrets and identities so that you can still do this series without burning your crew and their communications.
Any casino you make a video about can retroactively see every member of the team by looking at the tapes and identifying each member through their actions and play that you detail in your story. Have you thought about this?
@@Phobzithat’s why he mentioned that he didn’t want to post this if they didn’t get backed off.. it doesn’t matter they know what they look like anyway already they were all backed off
Retired Pit Boss and Surveillance here. 1. It is not against the law to count cards in AC. 2. There are cameras outside and believe me, they are watching you. 3. With disguises, people change everything except the obvious. Your watch. Change your watch, or better yet, no jewelry at all. Hope this helps. Good luck.
@@danielionanov5620 Yeah although at Encore Boston they were grouped up in a lot across the street from the casino which is owned by the casino, gotta get out of Everett to get out of the grips of Encore Boston
The counter is no more noble then the casino lol. It's just 2 party's trying to get more money. There is no higher moral tier to this lol just pleb mentality...
@@up2me967sure it's just "two party's trying to get more money." However these parties are far from equal. One party is using skill, probability and game theory to bolster their earnings, which is far from gaurenteed; you can count perfectly and still lose. The other is mainly relying on ill informed or addicted gamblers, in order to bolster their earnings. While, directly controling the odds and payouts in all games(including blackjack, in terms of payouts). One has complete control taking advantage or others, while the other, uses skill and knowledge to win which, in my opinion is thoroughly more "noble," than the former.
I really wish this series didn't directly correlate to making it harder to continue. It's such a genuinely amazing series that I hope continues for a long time despite how popular it is
Steven, this content is genuinely the most enjoyable content I can watch. Every episode something new, dumb, or ridiculous happens. So unpredictable, and that while you play in insanely big corporations which should basically all follow the same rules (besides small state unique exceptions). Thanks for the quality content mate!
man I was a casino TG dealer for years and i absolutely LOVED this video. Good on you guys for beating the shit out of these casinos!! You guys gotta take a trip to southern california for some double deck pitch. lots of great casinos out here that need to be taken bad. Barona, sycuan, viejas, pauma, harrahs, pala, morongo, yaamava, and pechanga + so many more!!!! I'd love to see them get beat up!
easily one of my most favorite series on youtube. when the time comes that you're unable to play because you're too easily recognized, I'm sure I'll enjoy what comes next
Thank you very much! I've got some experimental content on the way. It's not exactly counting but it's in a similar ballpark and I think it'll be a fun change. More card counting to come though.
I absolutely love and respect anyone who decides to commit and carry out a plan like this even though after costs and the split it's not a lot of money again that doesn't matter to me because Casino's are set up to ruin EVERYONE that walks through the door and I mean EVERYONE! Small things windows are covered so the mind is confused about time putting that along with absolutely no clocks to remind people of the need to go etc that's just a small example but the phycology in putting Casino's in the best position to getting you in and keeping you there is so in-depth and deceptive you need to be aware and conscious of it at all times! My advice for a nice night out at the casino is only take cash and only a small amount your willing to lose without any negativity, LEAVE ALL CREDIT CARDS AT HOME! DON'T BECOME A MEMBER AND THEY WON'T HAVE YOUR DETAILS TO ANNOY YOU WITH FREE STUFF (ALSO CONDITIONAL)! Casino's are evil nasty life destroying places regardless of name and status! Bless all!❤️
Great series! I’m not surprised the New England casinos got onto so quickly. I’m sure the region sees no shortage of card counting and it’s so small geographically.
That's actually crazy the pit thought they'd get away with killing a dealt blackjack. That's one of the craziest stories I've ever heard in my professional career as an AP. I hope the gaming commission reprimands those guys.
Phenomenal episode!! Bitter sweet to watch because it’s the end of the series though. You and your team may be on the verge of a new documentary film being made about you guys at this point.. keep up the great work!!
Imagine being a casino dealer in America then out of nowhere four or five dudes with British sounding accents roll in and start playing all suspiciously
This is why I love RUclips. I don't play blackjack, I've literally never even been to a casino. But this is so well made and interesting that I can't help but be sucked in.
Been looking forward to this all week and it did not disappoint! Congrats on the win and thank you for creating such an awesome and interesting series 🎉
Man I didn't realize how much your channel has grown. I have been subscribed since the first video of your original card counting trip and I must say very well deserved keep up the amazing videos!
Found this channel a few months ago while learning basic strategy and improving . Now I’m learning how to improve my skill at counting. This has been a fun series to watch
The thing I don't understand is the staff that are literally angry at you when backing you off. They are taking their job WAY too personally for no reason. They get paid if you win or lose.
I had to back off Stanford Wong once. He was so cool. I gave him the spiel of you can play any game but bj. He laughed and said, "You know hon, if I was you I'd back me off too."
These people are literally making their job harder. Everyone dislikes customers who make their job harder. I'm not saying they're wrong for doing it but the employees have obvious reasons to be annoyed.
Steven your killing it man!!!! Just wanted to say it was awesome to sit down with you at The Session and chat counting cards and magic, its really inspired me to practice even more counting! Hope to see you at the next one mate!
Thank you mate! 😃 Be extra careful re the counting. Gambling problems can happen to anyone so make sure you're keeping an eye on it. Good variance to ya!
14:00 I thought in Atlantic City, casinos are not allowed to back off card counters. They can make countermeasures for the game but they cannot kick anyone out of the casino for counting cards. Am I wrong?
Sometimes I just say 'backoff' as it's easier for the average viewer to follow. Having to differentiate between counter measures and backoffs can be a little confusing. But yes, we didn't get backed off in AC.
This series is honestly so interesting. Honestly one of my favourite things to watch. Grabs my attention and I'm sad when the video is complete. I don't know when this journey would end up at a stop but I'm very much enjoying the ride. Thanks for the hard work Steven.
"Good, I was done a while ago" this KILLED me, the BALLS to go into their house, rip em clean, and say that to his face!!!!! I screamed!. Best best of luck, keep giving these casinos what they deserve
Another great series Steven! I thoroughly enjoyed it and was glad that you and your team came out ahead big time! Thanks again for posting the reality of card counting in team play! Looking forward to your next series! Robert /:-)
turning stone casino would be very good for you guys. its on a reservation in new york and doesnt require any identification to enter. does require identification for hands over $200. They have tons and tons of blackjack tables. like 130 tables for games in total. very good casino for team play, little to no security and only two pitbosses in prime time. You're welcome
Thank you so much these detailed videos. It’s truly impressive and amazing to have watched you grow this channel. Excellent work, hope your journey continues going positively from here.
Honestly it looks like you guys intentionally dressed up to look like card counters. Like if there were Halloween costumes for card counters, it would be the exact clothes you guys are wearing.
Been following this series episode-by-episode as they drop. One of the few things I will drop everything else to go and watch and this episode was the best one yet. Thanks for the amazing content, Steven. Keep it up!
Awesome series! I'm curious with so many more team members, did expenses go up a lot (in general or compared to prior trips as a percentage of the win) ? Looking forward to future exploits!
Cheers Bart! Good question re the expenses. I'm not sure if it ended up being much more expensive compared to the win. I'll have to dig out the spreadsheet.
Love the Episode, great to see some local NJ/Philly Casinos, any recs on which to go to, and which to avoid for the casual player? Also loved the episode of BlackJack Versus with No Rolls Board!
Love these videos and while I don't count myself, its so frustrating to see counters like yourself having issues with the gaming commission. Like you said, they're supposed to be the middlemen between players and the casino. To just blindly take the casino's side is ludicrous and completely defeats their entire purpose.
Wouldn’t expect anything less from that terrible scum joint del Lago. I’m a dealer at Point Place which is a sister property to Turning Stone in NY. So unfortunately del Lago is the only place I can play within reasonable driving distance, and boy EVERYTHING about them is unprofessional. Side note, if you’re ever coming to the region again. Don’t bother with Turning Stone. If no players card, you’re relegated to 1 hand $100 max. Love the videos, can’t wait to see more! Cheers.
I’ve been watching since the vlog days and when you became an “advantaged player” I couldn’t wait for you to get to Atlantic City, where my family lives. So pumped you go that huge win in AC!
I like how the ones without youtube channels get backed off so it doesn't matter if you put your face out there or not, casinos just seem to be good at catching counters
Oh wow! Final episode? Noooo. This is always addicting! I saw your post wanting to talk to surveillance people. I hope cool content comes from it. Safe travels. Always enjoy your content. Keep on fighting the good fight. Much ❤️ from Texas.
This series is great, but my favorite thing about it is figuring out which casinos you guys visit when you give incomplete info. I gamble for a living so I know many of the spots, but once in awhile I don’t recognize one and I need the context clue at 12:36 to figure out who the scumbags are…
A little late here but I live in CT so I'm pretty familiar with the casinos you were playing at. I've met a lot of people, some of them friends, that worked in those casinos and the surveillance there is absolutely top-notch. Their cameras are actually so advanced that they can zoom into credit card numbers and, most likely in your case, your phones while texting each other. I can't see how else you guys got caught while maintaining a low profile but I'd assume some light suspicion prompted them to look into you guys texting each other.
When you purchase an item, the moment you pay for it, you legally own it. That's why they can ask you to check the items in the cart when you're leaving the store, but they can't demand it. Once you win the money, whether they've cashed you out or not, you legally own it. I would assume that if they refuse to give you the money, at that moment, they're robbing you. Talk to a lawyer and consider suing them. They should reimburse for the plane ticket, too.
So I literally JUST got introduced to this and the entire time I was thinking: "Is this legal? Theres no way capitilist markets allow this" then I remembered it wasn't. Cheating the cheaters? We call that a fair play. You had an impressive haul and I admire that. I could never trust myself to get into this gig bc im sloppy but seeing you do this is wild and honestly thrilling, even behind a screen.
It is legal though. The casions have rules against it and they ban anyone trying to do it but if they ever call the police the only thing they can do is get you for tresspassing assuming they actually have evidence you were tresspassing. Nothing they can do about you getting up, cashing your chips, then leaving though.
it is legal, imagine if it was illegal to THINK 5 moves ahead on a match of chess? It is completely legal, but since if you try to do it casino have a chance of losing, they try to f you up and kick you from the casino (and they store your info and photos on a questionably legal database with other casinos). Once the cards are dealt and the bets are placed, it is illegal for the casinos to interrupt that round, they have to let it finish (imagine if you are playing and mid round you say "yk what? nevermid"), but they try to do it anyways. It is illegal for a non-law enforcer to request your id (ergo casinos and security staff), but they try anyways. It is illegal to denie you from getting paid your money, or request your id to get paid, but they try anyways.
It is legal, however, any business has the right to refuse to serve anyone for any reason. So it's understandable that a business will put a restriction on you if your actions are losing them money.
It's so nice to see you and your team extract money from these casinos. I personally don't play casino games but I bet on EV sports. Kinda the same vibe where the sport books wants to see you lose no matter what. NIce!
Love your work, I wish I had of invested time leaning this skill when I was younger, unfortunately I live in Australia and I think we only have 9 casinos in the whole continent
You might include this in other videos, but it would be cool to understand the take away after expenses for each person. Like how much you actually pocket it after trip cost and dividing it up however many ways.
Fantastic video! And it confirms to me when I retire, that I do NOT want to be card counter. I will try something else to make money on the side. Lol. Very fascinating.
Honestly so glad I stumbled across your channel! Gripped every episode your a naturally entertainer and your videos are niche and awesome! Can’t wait to see what you do next🥳
I like that you gave BP credit to make him feel apart of the team. I’m sure he felt like he wasn’t and was the weak link not being able to play with you guys the whole time
Currious if you've ever considered Wendover Nevada, border town between Reno and Salt Lake City. They run 10+ single deck 3/2 tables as well as a few 6 shoe tables (think those are 6/5).
Just binged your card counting series and team play series on nebula and wanted to come here to say it was a really nice distraction to have whole terribly sick, it was all really amazing and i do hope maybe we'll get to see a little more team strike somewhere in the future, it was like a thriller movie with 3rd act climax as pivotal pointer took bp position

Im sure it has nothing to do with their YT videos. Can't hide that nose 😂
Awesome video per usual, and such a great message at the end! Thank you Steven.
Been following this series episode-by-episode as they drop. One of the few things I will drop everything else to go and watch and this episode was the best one yet. Thanks for the amazing content, Steven. Keep it up!
This adventure was awesome, can’t wait to watch the next one!!
I never want this series to end. Iv loved every episode soo much.
Thanks!
Thank you for the tip! I appreciate it 😃
Absolute banger of an ending. Can't wait for the next!
Thank you!
As a local to Mohegan and Foxwoods, love to see this. KEEP IT UP!
Awesome series! I'm curious with so many more team members, did expenses go up a lot (in general or compared to prior trips as a percentage of the win) ? Looking forward to future exploits!
Cheers Bart! Good question re the expenses. I'm not sure if it ended up being much more expensive compared to the win. I'll have to dig out the spreadsheet.
@@stevenbridgesairbnb maybe even cheaper per person
Love the Episode, great to see some local NJ/Philly Casinos, any recs on which to go to, and which to avoid for the casual player?
Also loved the episode of BlackJack Versus with No Rolls Board!
Loved seeing the PA and NJ casinos too!
Love these videos and while I don't count myself, its so frustrating to see counters like yourself having issues with the gaming commission. Like you said, they're supposed to be the middlemen between players and the casino. To just blindly take the casino's side is ludicrous and completely defeats their entire purpose.
Fantastic, I love this stuff. I like the story you have built up here.
Moral of the story, don't go to casinos.
If only everyone could agree on this, those scumbags can finally go out of business.
Why it’s fun to gamble
Wouldn’t expect anything less from that terrible scum joint del Lago. I’m a dealer at Point Place which is a sister property to Turning Stone in NY. So unfortunately del Lago is the only place I can play within reasonable driving distance, and boy EVERYTHING about them is unprofessional. Side note, if you’re ever coming to the region again. Don’t bother with Turning Stone. If no players card, you’re relegated to 1 hand $100 max. Love the videos, can’t wait to see more! Cheers.
"I'm done talkin' to you"
"Good, I was done a while ago"
BRO, you have me in fits hahaha
I’ve been watching since the vlog days and when you became an “advantaged player” I couldn’t wait for you to get to Atlantic City, where my family lives. So pumped you go that huge win in AC!
love this series so much. i hope there's more to come!
Indeed there will be!
I like how the ones without youtube channels get backed off so it doesn't matter if you put your face out there or not, casinos just seem to be good at catching counters
This series is Truely Amazing👏🏽 Congrats on all the winnings!!
Thank you!
I love what you send at the end regarding small steps in gaining a new skill. Cheers
It really is so true! It's amazing what you can get done in a few months of small but regular practice 😃
Oh wow! Final episode? Noooo. This is always addicting! I saw your post wanting to talk to surveillance people. I hope cool content comes from it.
Safe travels. Always enjoy your content. Keep on fighting the good fight. Much ❤️ from Texas.
I've got so much content on the way! Really excited for some of the videos coming out soon! :D Thanks for the support!
Just like a kid in the back seat. "Are we there yet? Are we there yet?" 😛
*addictive
Either spell properly or go back to school.
What an incredible channel to stumble across first thing in the morning! Absolutely fascinating stuff, well done mate!
This series is great, but my favorite thing about it is figuring out which casinos you guys visit when you give incomplete info. I gamble for a living so I know many of the spots, but once in awhile I don’t recognize one and I need the context clue at 12:36 to figure out who the scumbags are…
Del Lago, NY
A little late here but I live in CT so I'm pretty familiar with the casinos you were playing at. I've met a lot of people, some of them friends, that worked in those casinos and the surveillance there is absolutely top-notch. Their cameras are actually so advanced that they can zoom into credit card numbers and, most likely in your case, your phones while texting each other. I can't see how else you guys got caught while maintaining a low profile but I'd assume some light suspicion prompted them to look into you guys texting each other.
When you purchase an item, the moment you pay for it, you legally own it. That's why they can ask you to check the items in the cart when you're leaving the store, but they can't demand it. Once you win the money, whether they've cashed you out or not, you legally own it. I would assume that if they refuse to give you the money, at that moment, they're robbing you. Talk to a lawyer and consider suing them. They should reimburse for the plane ticket, too.
Unfortunately the lawsuit wasn't worth the time/money.
The segway to Brilliant sponsorship read is just so wholesome. Very very inspiring
So I literally JUST got introduced to this and the entire time I was thinking: "Is this legal? Theres no way capitilist markets allow this" then I remembered it wasn't. Cheating the cheaters? We call that a fair play. You had an impressive haul and I admire that. I could never trust myself to get into this gig bc im sloppy but seeing you do this is wild and honestly thrilling, even behind a screen.
It is legal though. The casions have rules against it and they ban anyone trying to do it but if they ever call the police the only thing they can do is get you for tresspassing assuming they actually have evidence you were tresspassing. Nothing they can do about you getting up, cashing your chips, then leaving though.
it is legal, imagine if it was illegal to THINK 5 moves ahead on a match of chess? It is completely legal, but since if you try to do it casino have a chance of losing, they try to f you up and kick you from the casino (and they store your info and photos on a questionably legal database with other casinos). Once the cards are dealt and the bets are placed, it is illegal for the casinos to interrupt that round, they have to let it finish (imagine if you are playing and mid round you say "yk what? nevermid"), but they try to do it anyways. It is illegal for a non-law enforcer to request your id (ergo casinos and security staff), but they try anyways. It is illegal to denie you from getting paid your money, or request your id to get paid, but they try anyways.
It is legal, however, any business has the right to refuse to serve anyone for any reason. So it's understandable that a business will put a restriction on you if your actions are losing them money.
@@24magiccarrot This. Their common line when backing off even accurately states "your play is just too good for us."
It's so nice to see you and your team extract money from these casinos. I personally don't play casino games but I bet on EV sports. Kinda the same vibe where the sport books wants to see you lose no matter what. NIce!
Why the fuck would they want you to win? You don't want them to win, do you? Think before you speak!
such a good video, i was on the edge of my seat the entire time and the 20 minutes went by in the blink of an eye
So Glad yo see you on Maryland I used to work security for Maryland Live
Love your work, I wish I had of invested time leaning this skill when I was younger, unfortunately I live in Australia and I think we only have 9 casinos in the whole continent
By far my favourite creator on the platform, please never stop these blackjack videos
I can’t believe the del lago did that! Been there many times. I’m from Western NY… absolutely crazy.
Did it to me too!
You might include this in other videos, but it would be cool to understand the take away after expenses for each person. Like how much you actually pocket it after trip cost and dividing it up however many ways.
Fantastic video! And it confirms to me when I retire, that I do NOT want to be card counter. I will try something else to make money on the side. Lol. Very fascinating.
Honestly so glad I stumbled across your channel! Gripped every episode your a naturally entertainer and your videos are niche and awesome! Can’t wait to see what you do next🥳
Absolutely love these series probably only you tube vids I don’t skip through
What was the initial out lay and final share for each player
dude followed a lil and you're really damn good at adapting new skills man it's genuinely impressive. keep up the amazing work!
I work in AC, DGE is TERRIFING both for casino and dealers. Had to chat with them once (not my fault) but was still terrified.
This series popped up on my recommended but I’m grateful - this is sick
I like that you gave BP credit to make him feel apart of the team. I’m sure he felt like he wasn’t and was the weak link not being able to play with you guys the whole time
Currious if you've ever considered Wendover Nevada, border town between Reno and Salt Lake City. They run 10+ single deck 3/2 tables as well as a few 6 shoe tables (think those are 6/5).
Good luck playing for real money in Wendover
Just binged your card counting series and team play series on nebula and wanted to come here to say it was a really nice distraction to have whole terribly sick, it was all really amazing and i do hope maybe we'll get to see a little more team strike somewhere in the future, it was like a thriller movie with 3rd act climax as pivotal pointer took bp position
Thank you mate! I appreciate the support
