Don't expect to get away with counting cards everyday after work on a double deck game with those rules. Your odds of making 50k in a year doing so are virtually nil. Your odds of making 50k in a year without counting cards are virtually nil. In other words, your plan isn't going to work.

It can be done -- but pretty tough with only 2 casinos. Play some days before work, some days after, and try weekends on the shift you miss during the week. They're probably keeping track of your wins both by the checks on the table and through the cashier -- so palm checks and put them in your pocket, and when you cash out, cash what's on the table -- have an accomplice cash the checks you palm. You need to create an illusion that understates your wins and overstates your losses. Often times simply stating your losses in a conversation with the pit is enough evidence for them to record it. It's a lot harder if you're playing $100's or $500's+ and you're the only player at the table playing those checks, because they can record your win/loss from the tray -- but playing multiple quarters you should be able to hide a lot. What they're going to record is your drop, final color up, and cash out. It can work if they think you're losing.

Card counting is still required though.
