You should have Jeff Jonas on as a follow-up, from the other side. Since Steven referred to the movie, 21, you will be able to guess who got brought in to do the data analysis to find the teams… and yes, Jeff is absolutely interesting, I have spoken to him several times while he lived here in Vegas and after.
Hello. No offense this is off topic I’m not an internet guy , I just look at patterns. I’ve noticed a pattern where people being interviewed immediately post a “thank you for having me” comment. Why is this ? You (and everybody else doing it) could have just told the podcaster thank you to his face … seems to me like an attention grabbing system that someone invented and now everyone is copying. Can you please explain to me why people do this ? Seems corny to me but I’m just a nobody. I’m just curious Thanks and good job with the podcast
@@FactsMatter999I'm guessing it's another way for the interviewee to advertise their channel. I.e. those reading the comments can easily click through. Nothing wrong with that imo.
This podcast has opened my mind to so many topics I thought would never be interesting to me. Chris, you are absolutely killing it with every single episode.
I had no idea that this was a real thing! Super interesting.. it should be illegal to kick out card counters. Someone needs to be able to balance the scales of justice on this money siphoning mafia. Happy there are people who do this, I salute you all!
I couldn't agree more. The casino's make a fortune on the weak and stupid. When someone finally comes along and through sheer intelligence and guile and courage manages to create an advantage for themselves, the casino gets to ban them from playing? On some fundamental level that just ain't right. It won't ever change, but it ain't right.
I went to a casino the other day that had a continuous shuffler, not a shoe the game, it was absolutely terrible. In abot 15 minutes I saw several players lose their entire bank roll! I lost too. If I im got 17 the dealer got 18 ... if I got 18 the dealer got 19. If I got 20 the dealer got 20. I spit Aces with a six showing. And the dealer got a 5 car 21. It was awful, I wont ever play a continuous shuffle game ever again
I have been a viewer since well over a year but was watching probably every other episode but it's episodes like these that have made me a fan, I now by default type in your name when I am on a 30-40 minute drive. You ask such great questions and have such interesting guests
No winning allowed! Play the game in a way that you lose money and we win! This is about having fun! People should have fun giving their money away under the pretense that they are winning! And then we have fun taking their money and preying on people with gambling addictions!
They spread their bets like when the count is bad they may bet 1 hand of $25 and when count is good they may play 2 or 3 hands of $500 or $1000 at a time.
@@dalewetzel3029 If they've managed to get an actual warrant, the worry of civil asset forfeiture is probably second to actually being arrested and charged with an actual crime.
Here's a comment......get your chips, put them on the table and walk off for a phone call and meander back......have a faux wife keep getting chips from you...many things you can do to look disinterested.....also, when you play big (get someone else's players card ) and bring diversion (such as asking for comps/dinner/show/limo service)?
It would be interesting to know how many more people are playing now because of the popularity and notoriety of card-counting, and how much money that brings in to the casinos. Because I bet that only a small percentage of wanna-be card counters actually beat the game.
I am a dealer at a casino in NC, and about a couple of weeks ago, I dealt to a guy who was playing perfectly by the book, only betting $25-$50 per hand. After about two shoes of play, the casino manager came over to him and backed him off. After the casino manager left the table, I asked the guy what was going on. He said, "I guess they don't like winners." In addition, he informed me he had been playing here for the past 11 days. I'm guessing the count at my table never got good enough for him to raise his bet, or he was just attempting to cool off any possible attention on him?
The tables games at Cherokee have gotten terrible anyway. When I went at 21 they had $10 tables and all of them other than the "party pit" were 3:2 payouts. Very quickly $10 minimum turned to $15, and then the 3:2 turned to 6:5, etc. I don't even count cards, but I'm not playing those games anymore now. Not even to mention the $35 resort fee they've tacked on and no more free rooms. They've gotten so greedy since 2020 it's incredible.
@@MackeyDeeez This is the way. Tell all your friends and spread it around online that these casinos are ripping off everyone that walks through their doors even MORE than reasonably expected
@@tmtmtlsml Unfortunately Cherokee has a monopoly on the whole industry. Besides this rinky dink one outside Charlotte which is currently slot machines in a double-wide, there's no other option for people for hundreds of miles. They have no competition and can do whatever they want. The poker room is good, though.
When a police officer pulls you over and asks questions (in the USA) the answer to their question is, "Officer, I understand you have a job to do but, under the advice of my attorney, I do not answer questions." And stick to it. And yes, you have a 5th Amendment right in the USA, even if you're not a citizen. The only exception is at the border, where they can ask certain questions you have to answer.
Good to know, but man what a disservice to new card counters 😖 Telling folks they need to have $100k to nearly half a Mil or you're gonna just blow through it. Turning new folks away from even starting, I wonder how BJA feels about that
Aside from the memory & Arithmetic skills, you put in as much effort (or more) into disguising your identity & card counting skills, and then suddenly start making Max bets randomly, which is basically the biggest "tell" that Casino security is looking for w/ card counters ? I've been card counting for Years from the same 4 local Casinos but am in it to take just a few Hundred a week, which the Casino's allow. It pays the bills so there's no reason to "tip my hand" by starting w/ agressive betting and being Tresspassed.
I was a pro gambler betting on horses at the tracks every day going racing five days a week not the weekends I am at the track one day and I turn to a person I know and say I am fed up keep having to court this money all the time day in day out he looked at me not knowing what to think what he did not understand was I was having to count money before and after every race it's not like you can flash buddles of cash so lots of trips to the John.
Card counting is nothing like the movies!! Small margins advantage….see true results in 1,000 hours….it isn’t just WIN, Win, win, win, win all the time.
Funny experience I had at Tulalip Casino. I watched a video on different dice grips for craps and decided to try them out. Long story short, I'm at Tulalip Casino on an early Saturday morning with my girlfriend, the floor is pretty much dead but they had a craps table going. I get $100 worth of chips and am making the $5 minimum bets. I start winning a little bit, the pit boss lady sees how I'm holding the dice, gets an alarmed look on her face and asks for my ID. I literally laugh, look at my girlfriend and say "they think I'm hustling them!" This was like 10 years ago, I guess their paranoia hasn't changed lol. We walked out of there with a massive $150 profit, pretty much just covered the cost of the hotel room.
do you find a lot of 2 deck tables that are ‘no mid shoe entry’ so you cannot do team play on those? Do you stick to 6 deck or what do you guys do with your team play?
Yes, that particular method of team play is reliant on mid-shoe entry. I've also run across casinos that limit how much a player can bet when they join mid-shoe to prevent this as well
Great interview. Thanks for speaking against civil forfeiture, absolute tyrranical theft! Next guest, please ask them about how they handle taxes and the LLC structure they employ.
Bigger problem in counting is that most games in Vegas suck...ie) lots of decks, shoes, only dealing midway into the shoe, twists to rules (can't split aces comes to mind), etc. Brings the odds way down.
Geeze! The stories of casinos leaving gambling addicts to play and lose and play until they literally drop dead! There was a tribal casino near my home town that was dedicated to not being a negative impact on the community and customers. They actually flag addicts and kick them out and send them away with a bunch of resources to get help and even sometimes ban them from coming back.
CASINO EMPLOYEES ARE LIKE POLITICIANS THEY START OUT BEING GOOD PEOPLE UNTIL THEY GET CORRUPTED BY THE SYSTEM THEN THEY DON'T GIVE TWO SHITS IF YOU LOSE EVERYTHING THAT'S DEAR TO YOU
I'm a full-time table games dealer and we tell people to leave with money, get something to eat, get something to sleep, slow down on the drinks, etc. We're not supposed to do that, but most of us do. No one ever listens.
Questions! Why would any casino let Mr Bridges in? Wouldn’t they, at least the big ones, keep track of the likes of him?🤨 Not that the casinos won’t turn a profit and if they don’t I wouldn’t loose sleep over it😂
My young nephew made $400k from online poker, and now coaches poker players. Auto-shufflers will screw counters. Adept players give the house a 2% advantage while dummies give the house 6% or so Ive been told.
Civil forfeiture is just one of the many ways our government here is corrupt. But regarding your concerns about lying to a cop, you don't have to lie to them, because you don't have to answer their questions at all.
Is it a crime to give your chips to another individual and they cash them in? (I'm assuming it must be a crime because someone has had to have thought of that idea before)
33:30 ethical decency in casinos...I heard this story from a dealer who said casinos would gladly give new clothes to old people if they peed themselves cause they would remain addicted to their slot machine and not go to the bathroom.
Hi, if you need to cash out 16k for example, can’t you just cash out 9k and keep the rest in chips, then come the next day and cash them out without showing ID?
Yes, it really comes down to money management skills...how much to bet, when. As Steven discussed you can go for many hours losing rather consistently, so starting w/ 60-100x your minimum bet is a requirement.
I know next to nothing about counting cards, Steven’s background and gambling games etc. But could someone explain why a professional card counter would show his face on a podcast? Sounds counter productive to a guy actively counting cards as a profession.
The most obvious reason is that he receives a sizeable income from his videos and the assorted sponsorships that he gets through them. Colin Jones from Blackjack Apprenticeship also publishes videos about card counting (and casinos in general) for the same reason: it increases his non-blackjack revenue.
Get a car with an electronic stash box to stop the cops from finding it ,or just never operate a motor vehicle US cops actually steal more than burglars through asset forfeiture
Funnily enough, what Stephen says about being a white male in your 20s being the sign of a cars counter was proven right anecdotally when Stephen met an old Asian man at a casino and thought he was just a terribly bad gambler, only to later meet the man who knew Stephen had been counting and in fact himself had made thousands of dollars because he was doing a type of counting so much more advanced and complex than Stephen could understand that Stephen couldn't tell whatsoever that he had just stepped into that man's action and messed up his counting game
There are not really any "more advanced and complex" counting systems in the way you imply. There are more complex systems, but they are only SLIGHTLY more accurate. In effect, two counters playing the same table but using different systems will more or less always reach the same conclusion about bet sizing and play deviations. If they do get different answers, the difference in EV will be very small. Now it is possible that the other guy was tracking aces, hold carding, or some other method that is not card counting and will not look at all the same because the basic method of getting an edge is simply different and looking for different things.
It is no longer a story that the world is experiencing a global economic crisis, I am very happy that I received 41,000 USD from my 13,000 USD investment every 10 days.
Long term investment is the best now. I invested $20,500 with Mrs Laura and i top up my trade with $500 every week. Now, I'm having over $147,345 on my dashboard. Toping up your trade is really important....
Some of this is bullocks. A family member used to count cards same process as Mr. Bridges and he lost his entire bankroll after hundreds of hours. I hear that counting completely takes the fun out of the game as well. From all the backoffs and trespassing he can no longer play at many casinos now. He tells me there is no such thing as zero risk or a long run that guarantees lush winnings.

In some states it is actually illegal to kick out card counters, so they do other things to make our lives difficult.
@@stevenbridges Thanks for responding man. Sending you good vibes for your winning endeavors!
Personally casinos should be allowed to kick out card counters, simply because if they couldn't, then they would just take out the blackjack tables
@@stevenbridges Didn't know this. Interesting. Love your videos
You should try to interview Micki Mace

How could they figure out someone was counting?
Just because they are doing good?
Or they watch for a while and have someone that can count as well?
They spread their bets like when the count is bad they may bet 1 hand of $25 and when count is good they may play 2 or 3 hands of $500 or $1000 at a time.
Re: civil asset forfeiture - Get yourself a combination locking bag. It's no threat if it's locked. Cops cannot search it or ask you to open it.
Brilliant
They can ask you to open it. You don’t have to say yes😊. And they CAN open it with a warrant.

Funnily enough, what Stephen says about being a white male in your 20s being the sign of a cars counter was proven right anecdotally when Stephen met an old Asian man at a casino and thought he was just a terribly bad gambler, only to later meet the man who knew Stephen had been counting and in fact himself had made thousands of dollars because he was doing a type of counting so much more advanced and complex than Stephen could understand that Stephen couldn't tell whatsoever that he had just stepped into that man's action and messed up his counting game

Sounds like a lot of trouble for such a low payout after breaking up the loot between everyone. No wonder he is doing youtube now.

Guy need to learn his rights js
Some of this is bullocks. A family member used to count cards same process as Mr. Bridges and he lost his entire bankroll after hundreds of hours. I hear that counting completely takes the fun out of the game as well. From all the backoffs and trespassing he can no longer play at many casinos now. He tells me there is no such thing as zero risk or a long run that guarantees lush winnings.
If a small edge does not guarantee winning in the long run, how do Casinos make their money?
Yeah, it takes the fun out of playing like knowing chess openings takes the fun out of chess. Much more fun to not know anything and just wing it.
Its clear to me you may have a family member who card counts, but you have no idea.
Or hes just bad at counting? Why did your family member fail when steven and thousands of counters make a lot of money.
This guys a nerd and makes no money on a 1-2% edge
Not true Isaac.
