It's Still Just a Job. Wavebreakmedia Ltd/Wavebreak Media/Getty Images. Don't get me wrong. Never Stay in One Spot Too Long. Prior to the 2008 Great American Recession, casinos were more. Casinos are NOT 'public property' as one of the card counters originally argued in court-they are private and therefore can bar anyone for any reason. HIGHLY unlikely you're going to win enough money for the casino to even care who/what you are-assuming you're not caught -which you will.
First things first, you can't really be an effective card counter if you don't know the ins and outs of basic blackjack strategy. Sure, you could count the cards, but it wouldn't result in you winning anything. Try to walk before you run. It's in your favor to practice in casinos, if you plan on counting cards at casinos.
It's Wednesday and you know what that means. It's time for AEW Dynamite, it's still at Daily's Place in Jacksonville, Florida, and our announcers are Jim Ross, Excalibur, and Tony Schiavone.
After our opening theme song and pyro, Joey Janela comes out to get his entrance as we get a recap of KENTA showing up on last week's show. Next out, with his title belt instead of his skateboard, is Darby Allin.
