    At the casino I dealt at, most of these cheating methods are impossible due to how we were trained. For example, on the multicolor payout, we have to separate all the colors and then pay accordingly. If we were to try to pay in one stack such as in the video and there was a question about the payout being correct, we'd *at minimum* get written up for paying out a multicolor stack like that. If anything, this video shows that players should pay attention to how disciplined/casual dealers are. If they're too relaxed about things like payouts (especially at the $100+ level) then it's could be a sign of something bigger like management apathy to running a clean game

      No. These things just don't happen. They are all things from the 60's and 70's. Maybe the 80's some. But policies and procedures all but eliminated these cheats to create a fair clean game. I'm coming from around a decade of experience as a dealer and floor. All of these techniques would be spotted instantly and the dealer would lose his/her gaming license. The most common cheats today are when dealer over pay players to earn more tips. Casinos today won't give a dealer anything for taking money from players (I would know I was a cooler lol.) So dealers are incentivized by paying players to earn tips.

The next step is to work on counting, then combine it all and go practice in online casinos, only then go practice in real casinos. Your app is very helpful. I was wondering if you could do more videos about how to bet during true high count. You do have some, and you do talk about protecting bank roll and about danger in chasing bets to recover losses (progressive). I just feel like there's a lot of education about basic strategy, counting, deviations, and more, - but not much about what to do about 'cherry on the cake.' Many thanks in advance.

    I am a dealer in Las Vegas. We don't cheat! We keep to strict procedures, and those ensure an honest game. In the past, I'm sure that cheating did happen, but these days there is no need for it. Casinos make insane amounts of money simply with the built-in house edge. Why would they risk losing their license just to make a little bit more here and there? I have heard of dealers stealing from the casino, but they are fired, and turned over to law enforcement. However, casinos in Las Vegas do increase their profits with 6 to 5 blackjack, and triple zero roulette. Of course, as a player, you should avoid these, but most tourist don't know the difference, or they just want to play so they simply accept it.

    When a player cheats against the casino, there are serious penalties. But it seems like when the casino cheats the player they get away with a slap on the wrist. A 50k fine I wouldn’t think would be much for a lot of casinos.

    For the most part they do not cheat, but against winning players who repeatedly come in and the house is starting to lose so many hands they figure they don’t have an edge, they will absolutely bring in a mechanic versus high limit advantage player, and they will ban them from the casino for frivolous reasons. I’ve seen in Vegas high limit rooms. That’s why most dealers come on here and say we don’t cheat, for the most part they don’t. But against high limit advantage players they absolutely play dirty. Same thing for winning sports bettors, I’ve personally seen them ban them for no reason saying they messed up a room when they didn’t. Claiming they broke something when they did not.

I would say yes to the collusion, but cheating? I'm trying to figure out where somebody else would draw the line.

    Be careful with fast blackjacks that are not done in order but rather simulated through the will of where to place the dealers. I have already been in a situation where a dealer hesitated to place a card that benefited me elsewhere, clearly she later became embarrassed because she saw that what she did was poorly done, characterizing bad faith.Micro Chips placed on cards can also detect the card and show on the display in front of the dealer that we don't see.

      Too complicated and unnecessary, not to mention incurring the wrath of the gaming commission. Card counting doesn't work with CSMs, so the house has the edge against everyone, including the good players, and even more so against the majority of players who don't know basic strategy. The only way they could cheat is to short the deck (take out a few high cards). This could perhaps happen on cruises where there is essentially no regulation.
