I am happy to engage in respectful discussions and try my best to explain things (which isn't one of my strengths) to people when asked politely in a reasonable discussion. THAT is not YOU! I don't know what planet you are F-ing from that you think you have the right to demand anything of me.
Okay, sorry that I asked.

Let's say that the count is favorable or unfavorable half the time. Now that is being generous one way or the other. So, we have the combinations, each with probability of 1/4, that: table 1 is good, and table 2 is good; table 1 is good, and table 2 is bad; table 1 is bad, and table 2 is good; and, lastly, that table 1 is bad, and table 2 is bad. This means that you will be switching to table 2 a 1/4 of the time, precisely when table 1 is bad, and table 2 is good. Furthermore, sometimes, either table will be only slightly better than the other, and you will elect to stay where you are, when we have the middle two (mixed) cases in the list of four cases. This means that you will be switching only 1/2 X 1/4 = 1/8 of the time. 12.5 % of the time you will switch chairs to an other table. Going by the math alone. And under the most liberal of definitions for a good or bad count. Almost break even counts.

Additionally, the dealers tend to nicely overlap the cards, even closer the more cards in a hand, or splits of hands. How to distinguish even the face cards, especially at the various angles of the cards around a table and lighting.

As far as the dealers go, they "play" a lot more blackjack than you ever will. They know almost exactly where they (the house) stands on every hand at every time. Let alone any casino surveillance.

BUSTED!
