can you count cards in live dealer blackjack online?
so i've been messing around with the live dealer blackjack tables online and gotta say, the experience is way smoother than years back. noticed they do a lot of shuffling, way more than what you’d see in a typical pit at a real casino. i get why they do it, but it got me thinking, is card counting even possible with these setups or does the constant shuffle just kill the edge?
i mean, i know some folks still track the shoe or look for patterns in how the cards are coming out, but it feels like the game is rigged against anyone trying to keep a count going. there's some effort in the design to make it not worth it. still, are there people here who’ve managed to beat the shuffle and make a system work, or does it all come down to luck after the first shuffle up? would be interested in how anyone manages risk or if you just don’t bother with it.
With all that mid-shoe shuffling, the classic counting edge drops to almost zero in live dealer blackjack. If you want a practical move, focus on tight risk management (like betting the same low amount each hand), since the house is locking down every angle.
