That it's based on a misconception doesn't stop a blackjack player
from feeling its effects. I jumped into a single deck game at
Harrah's Tahoe once, probably after 1 or 2 rounds had been dealt after
the shuffle. On my first hand, the count was high enough to split
tens, which I did, the dealer ended up with 21, and, since the dealer
was then going to shuffle, I left. It wasn't appreciated by the other
players.
But I disagree that no one here would believe it. Many people do. It
takes some effort to think past misconceptions like that, which not
everyone has done.
