ASM's?
If the cards are marked to check for bj is it possible or likely that the shoe is being stacked?

Possible, yes. Likely, no.
It would be very easy to install an IR sensor that detected the presence or absence of the black mark on the corner of the cards. It would be substantially more difficult to design a shuffle machine that takes advantage of that. I would be quite amazed if any casino would risk using such a gaffed shoe. It would leave far too much evidence if it were ever detected.

As long as the players are allowed to cut the pack, it is really something not to worry about.
should be warned by the Gaming Commission because they do not allow the players to cut their 6D pack after it is taken from the ASM.
Because of this, it allows the possibility of corruption and cheating. Sonny makes referance above as to how an ASM can be set to place the big cards out of play after the shuffle.
Just had my 3rd win in a row after a bad flux, thanks.
I was just saying that if they stack all the high cards together than that's bad because how does the dealer break when they have 20 or bj and the other cards would probably wipe u out. I think that the ideal situzation is when youyr doubles work u get more bj's and the dealer breaks but when the high cards are stacked together I don't know if we even have an edge.

Assuming you are considering small cards as being; 2's - 7's. Yes, you have a large edge. Two reasons are: 1. You have many playing options. The dealer does not. 2. The ace is much more value to you the player than to the dealer.
