a player cannot be barred for counting cards (says that in the Gaming Commission regs). They cannot single out a player and force a flat bet. They can and will cut the pen and Astar will prefential shuffle.
after about 10 years playing there, I think that I have gone to the well too many times. I can barely get one shoe completed before the countermeasures are taken.
