Blackjack Cheats
Ask yourself, why are you playing that game? Be it gambling, a video game, or a PC game, what motivates you to spend hours upon hours of your time playing? More likely than not, you will say for the fun of it. Majority of gaming and gambling enthusiasts have been at their chosen game for a very long period of time, recognizing a good thing when they see it. Yet it is unavoidable that there will be people who have other motives and in effect, ruin a good thing. What am I talking about? Cheating.
In any game, there is always a person who wants nothing more than to win. In the process of achieving his goal, he reverts to anything – including unethical practices and cheating. With blackjack, it is the same thing. Whether we talk about online blackjack or offline blackjack, there are people who have been trying for years to cheat the casino out of their money – and thus put more money into the player’s pocket. Quite obviously, you would know by now that I am against any form of cheating in blackjack. I am quite sure the casino owners would agree with me.
So what are some ways people can cheat at blackjack? Please bear in mind that this post is for informational purposes only and I am in no way furthering the “cause” of cheating at the blackjack table. The most common ways of trying to cheat at blackjack are Spooking, Card Marking, Card Mucking, Card Bending, Card Switching, Dealer Collusion, and Computer Devices (Super Chips). Spooking involves peaking over the shoulder of the dealer to see the hole card and relaying the information to a player at the table.
Needless to say, most – if not all – casinos are quite familiar with all these cheats, and more. They have more experience that you do with cheating and at the slightest hint of cheating on your part, they will take action. In fact, most casinos will take you to court if you get caught cheating. Even if the allure of cheating seems to be too strong for you to resist, think about it. Is the risk of cheating and being caught well worth the effort? Why cheat when you can improve your game the ethical way with basic strategy and other pointers for improvement that you can find anywhere on the Internet for free? Why cheat when you can enjoy the process of learning and improving your game as time passes? Isn’t that a better high than getting away with cheating?
Of course you will find all sorts of materials that will help you learn how to cheat. Just do a search on any search engine and you will find websites, videos, and books that guarantee to teach you the secrets to winning at blackjack – by cheating. Don’t let yourself be fooled by such blah blah. In the end, it’s playing that gives you more satisfaction – and the knowledge that you did so all on your own. You do not need to cheat to enjoy and win at blackjack.
