On anonymous AP and why they don't talk about certain things:
First isnt it obvious?
I am a card counter. There is nothing new about card counting. It has been known for 60 years and been around even longer. So I can say whatever I want basically. Sure there are some techniques like spreading both ways, that aren't super well know and if I mention that, I could be harming myself a little. I have a history of that.
But there is a whole bunch of AP shit that isn't well know and isn't talked about on open forums. And if somebody does say something the other "anonymous AP's growl. Hole-carding used to be one of those kind of things. When I first started on forums, if anyone even mentioned hole-carding everyone freaked out. "Don't talk about that on the forums". But over time hole-carding is almost like card counting now. Most of it is common knowledge.
But there are plenty of other things that still are not common knowledge. That casinos don't know about or only know some of. So these things aren't talked about on open public forums unless someone is trying to sabotage.
I don't know why this would be hard to understand and why all the snarly comments about how secretive AP's are and secret handshakes and that kind of nonsense. AP's fight a battel with casinos on a daily basis. Card counters have been fighting this battle for decades, but with all the new game and types of AP methods, it is now catching up to all AP's. And it isn't just the old cat and mouse game between AP and casino that it was for such a long time. Casinos have allies. Consultants and database companies. And these allies have people that look for and monitor social media. It is a whole new ballgame, and we fight a formidable foe on a daily basis.
So I just don't get why anyone would wonder why AP's are so secretive. Plus, you can look at the ones that do talk too much, like me and see the price we pay for being stupid.![]()
