They employ agencies that seek out and keep tabs on suspected card counters. Card counting is legal, but casinos are allowed to kick anyone out that they want, because they are privately owned. Casinos love the amateur gambler that will come to Vegas for the weekend and drop 500 dollars playing blackjack; they don't like the professional card counter that will win $10,000 in one night. So casinos make sure that their employees can recognize suspected card counters, and if one is seen, then they are escorted outside.
But what happens when a team of brilliant MIT students forms a card counting group? What happens when the people involved are not your typical hustlers?
Ben Mezrich examines these questions in his book, Bringing Down the House: The Inside Story of Six MIT Students who Took Vegas for Millions. During the 1990s, these six MIT students made millions of dollars playing blackjack in Vegas casinos on the weekends, while attending school during the week. Not wanting to draw suspicion by carrying around large sums of money, these students carried around money that was velcroed to their legs and stashed huge sums of cash in their socks.
How did they do it? It was a sophisticated combination of teamwork and mathematical prowess. An ordinary individual card counter can be spotted quickly; if he/she makes large bets for no apparent reason, it is likely because they are counting cards, and suspect that a high card is about to show up. But these MIT students had four people spread out, involved in the card counting, so it was much harder to detect.
So you can see from this team that it might be hard to spot. A dealer is probably not going to be able to figure out that something is going on, especially when there are nerdy looking guys and women involved in the take.
The whole system was based on arbitrage. Statistically speaking, if there is a mathematically advantage in the deck and enough hands are played, then the player will win money. Sure, they lost money sometimes, but it balanced out with their wins.
Who knows how long they would have gone undetected if someone from their own inner circle hadn't sold their names to an agency in Las Vegas. After that, anytime they entered a casino, they would be tossed out almost immediately. Card counting is legal, but casinos go to great lengths to discourage card counting. If that involves pulling someone into a back room and giving them a talking to, then they'll do it.
It's an interesting story because there were no major repercussions for the students. They didn't end up in jail. They just made their millions, and then decided to stop.
Hi,
I hope you don't mind me posting, but I've come to a stand still with getting some support for my Masters degree project! (please ignore if you are not interested, no need to comment)

I hope you don't mind me posting, but I've come to a stand still with getting some support for my Masters degree project! (please ignore if you are not interested, no need to comment)
My study is looking into UK teachers experience of stress, their coping mechanisms and motivations to continue teaching. It's mainly aimed at finding out why our teachers are so stressed, and whether there is a difference in the stress experienced by primary/secondary and SEN teachers (I've already found there is actually a small difference!)
If you fancy helping a future teacher out (preparing me for what I'm bound to feel once I qualify), then please fill out my questionnaire or even share it with colleagues if you feel able to!

I signed up to be a tutor of ancient and modern foreign languages (specifically Classical Greek, Latin and Modern Greek). For CG and MG I will be teaching for Primary, KS3, GCSE and A - levels. For Latin, Primary and KS3. The problem is I can only find very general instructions on what the curriculum should be. I cannot find any standardised textbooks (or even textbook suggestions) for teaching younger children. I can plan my own lessons, but I cannot be sure that I will cover everything that should be covered. Any suggestions? Thanks.

I submitted my paperwork with the DODEA to be a secondary science teacher and have qualified status. I also have QTS status with the UK government. Just curious about when the DODEA will start contacting me about positions?
I'm doing q pdge. I keep hearing about the long hours etc. Is it possible to do 8.30 to 5 and not have loads of work to do at home. Im not considering trying to be a head teacher but have thought about pastoral care. So far what I've seen looks fairly simple compared to previous jobs.
