Has anyone read the Mississippi Law Journal, Volume 74 #3 Winter 2005? It is titled Advantage Play and Commercial Casinos and is written by Anthony Cabot. I am just starting to read it but one of the points it seems to be making is that shuffle tracking might be against the law. The reason being that the contract entered in by the player and the casino is the hands being played are based off of the randomness of the shuffle. If a player is compromising the randomness of the shuffle, by tracking it, they are in breach of the contract. He states
"The basic contract between the player and the casino contemplates that the shuffle be random. Therefore, a player who tracks the shuffle is gaining an advantage outside the basic rules of the game"
Interesting premise??????
