CARD COUNTING !l! 10 POINTS?

Question

WHILE READING 21 BRINGING DOWN THE HOUSE

I READ THAT THEY USED FAKE NAMES .. COULD YOU

GET INTO TROUBLE FOR DOING THAT ??

Answer 1

don't think you would get into trouble for using a fake name, however if you're working with a team to beat the house and are counting cards, then sooner or later you will get listed as a mechanic and won't be able to find a game.

Answer 2

You can use fake names when in a casino, But it is illegal to use a fake id in attaining a fake name for yourself.  This creates an obsticle that is difficult but not impossible to overcome.  It take guts, persuasion, and strategy to get a card printed without showing your id, it isnt easy but it can be done.

Basicall to play under a fake name, you just get a players card printed up under a fake name, and whenever you entre the casino you are that person.  Checking into the hotel under that name become a bit of an obstacle coarse, but its not impossible.

I have several players cards i use all with bogus names, and i have never gotten into any trouble for it since there is nothing wrong with it.

It is illegal to use a fake name to defraud a buisness, but card counters typically use fake names to protect their identities.
