How long has this been around? They certainly figured a way around the card counters. There is no more just playing out the chute anymore. The chute never ends.

I don't gamble often. My step dad loved black jack and craps. He studied the count high low stuff. But I thought most tables had went to the 6 deck thing. Which means you would need a much better brain than mine to count that many and keep upBelterra still has a couple of tables with a six deck shoe.
Help solve the problem, don’t play the auto-shuffle games!!!

Saw a few videos where some counters insist that deck was loaded with extra low cards at certain casinos
The casinos hand out those cheat sheets. Duh!
I was teasing, but if those shufflers become commonplace, the MIT Blackjack team will have to come up with something new.Yeah, but they only get you to within about 1.5 % disadvantage (depending on house rules), and if a good card counter, the “Cheat Sheets,” or “Standard Book of play,” shifts (or becomes irrelevant) with the count.
The “Illustrious 18,” (Google it) shows, for example, if you are at a seriously 10 value loaded remaining shoe (+4 or +5 true count) you split a pair of tens against a dealer 5 or 6. And if you are at a positive 1.5 or greater true count, you take insurance/even money when the dealer has an Ace showing, as the remaining shoe is just “ten rich” enough, that there is greater than a 50 percent chance of a ten beneath the Ace, making the two-to-one-payout worthwhile.
Always be careful of the BS you hear at tables. Most folks can get real close on “what the book says,” but beyond that, there is a lot of legend and bullsh!t.
I split tens one night, winning both hands, and a dude next to me said that you should only split tens against a dealer card of 4. And that is clearly ridicules, as the dealer is more likely to go bust with a 5 or a 6.
I’ve split tens likely 20 times the 15 years I have been counting, and lost both hands only once.
