Answered just like an obfuscating liberal. I can get you plenty of empirical evidence, but would it really matter? You got caught neck-deep in bullshit and instead of getting out, you decided to drown in it.

It was really hard to tract you down...pull up your name and most recent post...it must have been a whopping 8 seconds.

What a twerp.

However, that matters little to me.......it remains my opinion that a table of good players following the rules enhances my chance of winning at BJ. That opinion comes from MY experience as a BJ player. In fact, when I won the 5k it was at just such a table.

This is a ridiculous assertion that is easily disproven. I refer you to Griffin's "Theory of Blackjack" and Schlessinger's "Blackjack Attack".

How I play my game has absolutely nothing to do with other player's winning or losing. As a card counter, one frequently makes plays that do not coincide with others' beliefs or Basic Strategy (such as hitting 12 vs. 6 or even splitting tens). I find that others at the table often scoff at my play as "costing them money" for one reason or another. But they fail to notice that such oddball plays SAVE THEM MONEY just as frequently.
