Can you actually predict the next card in blackjack

so i get why people think they can predict the next card in blackjack. like, if you’re counting and the deck is super rich, you actually have a better shot at knowing what’s likely. makes sense on paper and those counting charts. but unless you’re literally keeping track of every card that’s gone by and never slipping up, there’s just so much randomness left.

crypto tables make it way sketchier too. everything’s shuffled and auto-dealt by algorithms, not tired dealers, and you never really know if there’s even a “shoe” or it’s just an infinite deck style. trying to apply old school counting tricks here feels off. what’s everyone’s take on the real limits?

Yeah, this is where I land too. The real limit is not your brain, it’s the fact half these online setups won’t even tell you cleanly what game you’re actually sitting in. You open the game lobby, one blackjack says 6 decks, another buries the rules, another flips side promo junk in your face like that matters. If I can’t verify shuffle point, penetration, DAS, any of it, I’m not pretending I can “predict” anything. Same with bonuses and promos!!! People get hypnotized by the offer and ignore the ugly little rule box underneath it completely

"Worse" how, exactly?! Infinite-deck feel, or the same junk as slots where the rules are buried and you're just supposed to nod along?

Yeah, card flow matters, slots don't.
