Yes, you can do that. In Nevada that's cheating and in New Jersey it isn't (but if they see you doing it they can make your life very difficult), but at that point you're operating outside the norms of the game so I didn't count it.

It's not against the law unless you're using a device, but you can bet your ass that Casinos will kick you to the curb if they figure out you've been doing it. They'll also tell all of the other Casinos to blacklist you too.

And they will figure it out, too. It's not that hard for me to spot card counters, and I'm not a pro.

Seems like over the years the way they've dealt with card counters is by tweaking the game, though. They've added decks, they shuffle sooner, they shuffle when you increase your bet or when a new player sits down and plays for nontrivial amounts, and lately with continuous shuffling machines.

It's not cheating in Nevada. But you can be bounced when they catch you.
