Keep in mind that how you react to a circumstance might also play а role in how damaging or not a particular incident becomes. If you cause a scene, which some counters are prone to do, you’re creating a not-so-pleasant, lasting memory in the minds of casino personnel, which might not be all that beneficial twenty-four months down the line. I can say that I’ve managed to again get a game in virtually all of the casinos for blackjack where I’ve been 86′d over the years, thanks in large part to a quiet exit and the passage of time. Always think, “Will my actions or words have any adverse impact on the possibility of being able to play and win again here in this casino, sometime in the future?” If the answer to that question is “yes,” then another choice of words or an alternative course of action is likely the better choice.
The best policy is to remain calm and cool. The reason is that, after all, you are sitting in their house, playing at their tables, and winning from them in the long run. And they do have the law on their side. So a polite answer to any questions asked, along with a hasty exit, is without a doubt the most productive course of action.
