It's their casino, their rules, so of they wish to ban people for counting cards they're free to do it.
How embarrassing for Ben Afflek! The guy is a freakin millionaire yet chooses to cheat on card games. Seems like he may have a little gambling addiction going on.

Absolutely it should be a businesses right to ban anyone who breaks the rules. .
Is it against the rules to be playing the game well?? It's a game. The object of the game is to win. So why ban someone who is playing the game. Playing isn't breaking rules ... it's just playing.

I'm just trying to understand why they can ban people from playing a game that they offer. The people aren't breaking the law and they are just playing well. That's the point of the game.

How is counting cards 'cheating'?? Isn't it just playing a game well?
Isn't that the point of the game?

Of course the casinos should have a right to not allow card counting. As long as it isn't based on discrimination they have the right to refuse service to whoever they please.
That's just it ... A business should be able to deny service to whoever they wish as long as it's not based on discrimination, but isn't this a matter of discrimination? They are discriminating against smart people and good players??
They'll take your cars, your home, everything.... But they wont let you apply simple logic and math techniques to even the odds? How sad and messed up is that?!?

Casinos do the exact same thing to GET your money. I don't understand the double standard when it comes to you taking their money. There should be laws about that. It's not a game of chance when they make the games to take your money. They're not exactly redistributing the wealth. They're making so very much more than they're giving away.
