Playing Blackjack and Card Counters

Blackjack is perhaps the best game for people who are just starting out playing in casinos. This is because it is easy to play and there are not a whole lot of rules to learn. The premise of the game is so easy that it makes playing a piece of cake for most people. The only thing you have to watch out for when you are playing blackjack is that there are probably going to be a lot of people doing what is called card counting. This is a highly illegal practice in casinos but it happens anyway so keep your eye out for people who seem like they are in teams and working together. The truth of the matter is you probably won't even notice card counters as they are usually pros at what they do. This means that they could be all around you and you would never even know.

The dealer is trained to watch for these people but even the dealer can be fooled by people who are highly skilled at card counting so you can never be sure whether they are there and doing it or not. If you notice anyone acting suspicious or just get a general bad feeling about a table then do not be afraid to just up and leave that table to pick another one. Remember that the money you play with is your hard earned cash that you probably cannot afford to lose so you want to be sure everything is on the up and up when playing blackjack in a casino.
