i dont think they use a new deck for every hand.

When auto shufflers are being used they do. Sometimes they shuffle same deck each hand, usually though it's one deck is in play while the other is shuffled and they switch off each hand. Lots of different ways they can do it so it just depends on the casino.


The whole point of using shufflers is to utterly defeat card counting... which leaves the question posed to Tal earlier: WTF?

The books you are reading must have been written before 1962.

You can count cards (and be successful at it) with shufflers. Without using shuffle tracking.

I am really doubting that 'you've been playing for 25 years' if you don't know how to keep the count on a black jack deck. The shuffler does not change that.



I am going to join the argument against you in saying that I don't think you really understand how card counting works.
