I didn't care if I got asked to leave so I started counting and betting a 30 spread from $5 to 2 X $ 75. I was wonging out on bad counts, taking a cigarette break at the start of a hand while sitting at the table counting. I was getting up to make phone calls on bad counts and doing everything I could to get a slight advantage. I played like that for 8 1/2 hours from 8 PM until 4:30AM and no one even glanced in my direction. Every once in a while a pit boss would walk over to the table to just chat because the place was so slow but never even glanced at me in an inquisitive manner. I finished the night down $ 10.00 and went to the cage to cash in my chips and passed back by the blackjack tables on my way out. Both pit bosses waved at me and thanked me for playing and asked me to come back. Of course I won't be returning because of the poor penetration but it was an interesting night.
