Why Not Raise my Spread?

I am being recognized in a certain casino, and they do not have the guts to back me off. They just short the deck on me. I play out a few shoes and then leave. Why not just jack my spread up to the table limits? I know you are all going to say that is way too obvious and it will burn me as a counter. But I am already burned at this joint as it is. Why not just force them to back me off? At least I'll get some satisfaction out of it.

Back off

Had the same experience and did what you are suggesting, still did not back me off, just cutting now 3 decks out of 6 instead of 2.5 so decided to bar myself from this lousy place.

Why...

Why would you want to bet table max in a game with unplayable pen? Play somewhere else. Your tiny theoretical edge will be more than compensated for by the wild fluctuations you'll endure. Then they'll bar you.

Do more back counting...

then wong in after the shoe is already in progress. They can't change the pen once the shoe is started. Bet max if your bank roll allows and during any monsterous counts. If they know what you doing, you may just as well get all you can out of it. Don't even play unless the count is above 0. They will bar you eventually.
