Sir,
When and where have you read that card counting was illegal? Please insert the link of the law/articles that state that, as I could easily procure evidence to the contrary.
The only people who are against card counting are casinos, as they can't stand to be beaten at their own game. As far as most people seeing card counting as a "gray area" -- they are just "parroting" what is printed in the papers - again, controlled and in favor of casinos.
And, what exactly is "social card counting"??
LOL!
