Online card counting
 

I was wondering if it's possible to count cards at live dealer blackjack games. Playtech has this option. I think it's a six deck games, but I don't know how much penetration is allowed.
The dealing is very slow so it's difficult to make a good hourly wage, but I was just wondering if a player can have an edge in these games.

It's a 6 deck game with ~50% pen and very marginal rules. It's the best "live dealer" blackjack game online albeit the slowest. Your hourly rate would be minimal and long term your risk of ruin will approach 100% (I know I've run a sim on this particular game).

why not multi-account/wong?

doesn't risk of ruin depend on bankroll and betsize?

You can multitabling also.

Yes. What I meant is using fairly large bankroll and fairly small bets to keep the RoR low will result in terrible win rates. Anything else will have marginally higher win rates but with much larger risk of ruin. Wonging was used in all my sims. Check out the BJ sim tool here:

Yes, but with 50% pen, it's a very poor game, so risk of ruin will be high for any reasonable bankroll.

Read the thread.

I ran sims on this game with BJ PowerSim (link above) using Wonging, betting only when the TC was +1 or above. Still it produced poor horrible win rates even with a large BR. The game is not profitable.
