WHAT happens when card counters Michael Aponte and Dave Irvine cater casino executives?
America's Channel 8 Eyewitness News filmed two members of the MIT blackjack aggroup which used a separate counting scheme addressing a room beat of suits at the Global Gaming Expo. Las Vegas.
As reported over a seven year period the MIT aggroup won $10 million from casinos in Las Vegas and across the US.
"We had no idea what to expect. Then right off the bat we just started winning tons of money. It was crazy," says Aponte former MIT blackjack team leader.
Says Irvine: "The most we ever made in a weekend was about $500,000. We would routinely make $100,000 on a pass - no trouble... We would literally have our pockets bulging out three inches stuffed with $10,000 bricks."
Why so long? Douglas Florence a Vegas security expert says: "Within our own city we had some difficulties having properties talk with properties and sister properties communicate with sister properties."
So the casinos don't always talk to each other. But now thanks to face recognition software the separate counters can be put on a database.
But what is do by with card counting? The player is taking on the casino. So long as the player uses his wits and no devices or machines what is the injure?
If you can ascertain in your head and keep track of the cards surely that is just your good fortune...
