Right off the bat Frank Scoblete sells it so it has to be impossible. If it were real and attainable, he and all the other shysters would simply use it for profiting in the casinos and not advertise and sell classes for it.
I still don't understand how there can be any "control" or "influence" of any kind, with all those things sticking out of the back wall where your dice are required to hit. And please don't tell me that a "close guess" is good enuf. We were treated to that kind of BS by kew after his two table counting claim was labeled an epic fail and pure nonsense as soon as he regurgitated that the 2nd table count need not be accurate.
There was no "epic fail." It is really, really lame to say "was proven this" or "was labeled that" when the person doing the labeling or saying or allegedly proving is the author himself. Really lame.
I don't know kewlJ from Adam. I have no idea if he is who he says or supports himself playing blackjack. But I can tell you that counting two tables is possible.
I measured the distances myself and plopped my butt in various middle seats at the Flamingo, and Harrah's, and elsewhere, and I can see the cards with my lousy eyes well enough to tell what they are, given I have an angle of view. For those tables at longer distances, I wouldn't recommend it, but even I can tell "pips from paint." Not my jargon, because I know nothing. So anyway, the cards can be counted unless obstructed.
Now can someone count two games simultaneously? Not unless they've counted before. That's about the only restriction.
So why lie about the clarity of cards at distances at the Flamingo, or Harrah's, or about the difficulty of counting two decks simultaneously? Who knows? Ask Argentino.
If anybody is interested, walk into any of these casinos with a tape measure, a deck of cards, sit at tables, and figure out at what distance you can identify the cards. Easy enough to get to truth of the matter. My eyes are pretty bad. If I can do it, clarity is not an issue. Counting is not an issue. Obstruction of two particular seats is the only issue.
I'll do it again this week at other casinos. It's real tough to actually sit at a table, measure the distance, and figure out if you can see cards. Takes all of 10 minutes.
There is an interesting variance in lighting, so that plays into clarity occasionally. I don't have a light meter, so I can't report on that. Maybe Argentino can do some leg work and use his engineering background to report on the lighting.
