The question being asked at present is what will be the future of card counters in Blackjack. are the times of card counting over? Most believe so.
Automated shuffling is being utilized in todays tables which makes shuffle tracking or card counting impossible. The land based casinos are going to insert shuffling machines at the tables.
It is stated that in places like vegas, video cameras are being used to analyze the skill of the players and intelligent twenty-one tables that records gamblers hands and game plans using magnetized chips.
The Nevada State Gaming Commission, an agency that safeguards honest gambling has made a decision that casinos may not alter the games in a manner that would change the frequency of the pay outs. Since then, many Nevada betting houses train their dealers to count cards and shuffle as they please, also a wide variety of casinos retain information of players who, this information consists of names and pictures to keep them out of the game.
So what will be the future of this black jack "battle"? is it just starting or will it soon arrive at a resolution? Despite all their latest tech, political and money influences, I have reason to believe there remains a chance for a happy ending. With more than twenty-five states within the United States allowing black jack games, there are more money making opportunities for card counting than back in the olden days.
