Say, she has. Seems like you're saying that is wrong. Why? It's the exact same game of chance that the casino is offering. It's the exact same deck of cards that the casino has always used. If I read a book about gambling strategy written by someone else, I'm utilizing the knowledge of someone other than myself. Is that cheating? Is it criminal that the big, bad gamblers are teaming up on the poor, innocent casino?

I don't really have a dog in this fight but it seems to me that as long as I'm playing the game as the casino is offering it, I should be fine. If they don't want card counting, add more decks. If the cards they use can be read from the back, change 'em. If you think my strange requests might be giving me an advantage, refuse them. Boot me out if you think I'm winning too much but I don't think they should be able to sue me for the winnings after I agree to play the game as you offered it.
