Redietz, you really shouldn't comment about blackjack at all or what it might take to make a living as a blackjack AP, as it is obvious you don't know shit about any of that.

But you DO like to talk about shit you don't know about. Hey maybe you have a friend who has a brother that knows someone. OR maybe you played basketball at lunch time with someone 50 years ago that knows someone.

I will let you in on a misconception that some of you on this forum that have no clue about blackjack card counting/AP, believe or have talked yourself into believing. That no one can count cards on a regular basis in Las Vegas anymore. NOTHING is further from the truth. The math works exactly the same as it has for 60 years. EXACTLY!!! The only thing that has changed is how a player has to play. You can't just sit down at one table for 8 hours (like people telling stories claim). You have to play shorter sessions, move a round and play a larger rotation of casinos, so you are NOT seen at any place more than once or twice a months. Shorter sessions (and things like exiting after showing spread) also increase longevity by not having as many of the really big wins that draw attention and scrutiny. For the most part you will have many more smaller wins, which no one has to answer for and are easier on the player to cash out.

And finally, you people, the clueless KJ haters that know nothing about what they are making up, think I am the only one still grinding out blackjack for a living in Las Vegas. There are a number of players still doing so. THAT number isn't in the hundreds like it was a few decades ago, when so many AP were playing blackjack before moving on to higher advantage play. It is more like 10, or maybe 20-30, if you count the part-timers supplementing rather than playing exclusively for a living. But there are still some, because despite what you knuckleheads keep telling yourselves the math still works. You just have to be a little more creative in how you play to achieve some longevity.

Hell, I am NOT the only player in my family and my brother and I are not the only player in the community where we live. Digest that you goofy, "can't count cards in Las Vegas anymore" loony tunes.
