This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Its allowed. Using a tool to help you IS NOT.

Betting table max, 3 hands, out of nowhere is a big indication you're counting. It is, after all, a betting strategy.

And casinos stop it because if they allow it it could shut the whole place down. A business that loses money doesn't stay open for long.

I've been a shift manager at casinos for years. I can tell the counters a mile away. I can deal a shoe and tell you the count at any point. I don't kick em out, but I'll flat bet them. Say the betting spread is $5-$500, right? They've played 10 hands at $5, now they bet $500. I'll walk over and place a new placard on the table, $25-$25. They can only bet $25 a hand, no variation.

Anyone who's there to press an advantage will walk immediately. And then we'll make a dossier on them and it'll get shared, nationally.

Yep. It is like that. Would you expect less, c'mon.
