8 deck shoe

[newbie]

What is the best strategy to use with the 8 deck shoe that shuffles the cards continuasly. When the dealer picks up the cards from the table, then he immedietly puts the cards back into the shoe. So the cards are "always" being shuffled.

I play nickel CSM on the rare occasion to help the illusion that Im not a counter, since I usually play at one casino. I did this last night on a six deck CSM and usually I just watch what's out but I decided to count for the hell of it. There was +19 (3 TC) after about one deck! I got in two good hands at that count with a little more money. what a waste.

The count reached +19 before they reinserted the cards? That's incredible! And they dealt out a full deck before reinserting?

If they are smart and on to you they will notice you don't vary your bets when you play the CSM

They always deal out about a deck before reinserting at Seven Luck... You sound surprised so Im assuming thats a good thing? hehe

its was only 3:1 spread or something... also, even a few of the non counters noticed the crazy amount of small cards and raised too.
