Some card counting methods are very hard, but there are many effective methods that are not difficult at all. With just a little practice you will be able to count the table in just a few seconds using nothing more than a glance.
1. I did. But even the trainer apps are different from what happens at a casino. Playing 1 on 1 at home and dealer vs a table full of people is totally different. At a casino is much, much more difficult when counting.

2. Same as 1, I was the SHIT at counting cards at my house. I had people keeping count and we'd even go back through the deck to double check and I was always spot on. I got to the casino with all the distractions and trying to not look like I was counting and shit went all to hell. Same thing as I can shoot a gun pretty well at a range, but nobody is shooting back at me, yanno?

3. I know. The casino I go to is pretty much half and half. Some of the higher stakes tables are only shuffle machines, I have never been into the high stakes room but I also don't usually play huge hands so it's never really been an issue for me. Like I said I just go to have fun and hopefully not lose a ton of money.
