I don't know if that would be a good idea, methinks the PCs would be much more vigilant when offering such a fantastic promo.
I agree Moo123 is probably right here in that it is probably more profitable to play quickly and spread with the count while taking advantage of the promo than trying to slow the game down to exploit the promo to its fullest.

Generally speaking you do all that you can to stay in the game when playing a promo. Promos are watched very carefully. A casino will hesitate to throw out a suspected counter in a normal game because they might just cost themselves money throwing out the wrong people. But in a promo, there are usually plenty of people waiting to sit down. It costs the casino nothing to tell people they've played enough.

Play the game straight!

With that good of a promo you don't have to be card counting to get an edge you already have won like you would on first card is an ace or a matchplay. My guess is on the exposed card your bet would be limited. On first card is an ace promotion your bet is almost allways limited. Because when the casino doesn't have an edge they tend to limit how much you can bet. The promotion is good enough to make the game beatable.

Yeah, it's good enough to make it beatable. But why not rape it, and get the money. I'd at least put down a moderate spread.

Asking to see the burn card

One of the local casinos here allow you to see the burn card at their double deck games (not sure at their 6 decks games). This was not common knowledge to me prior to someone else asking to see the burn card. Is this request to see the burn card accepted at most casinos? Also do you think requesting to see the burn card to be suspicious? I guess it would be good for any common player to know, but even better for card counters to know the accurate count.
