How do casino dealers know when somebody is counting cards?
In: Other
It’s not really the dealers job to know whether someone is counting cards. It’s likely they can pick out obvious stuff and may have a way of alerting other casino staff, but the majority of detection of cheating or counting cards (not cheating but detected the same way) is going to be through tracking.
Casinos have cameras *everywhere* and monitor them for suspicious activity.
They also have pit bosses which are trained to spot indicators of “unfair play.”
On top of that, some casinos have software that tracks players, hands, bets, etc and will alert staff to any players that have betting patterns that raise an alarm.
Once a player is kicked out for counting cards, their face will be added to a list of banned players and shared with other casinos, at which point facial recognition software can be employed to notify employees at the casino when a banned player enters.
