However this is not the case. I almost wished the game was rigged. What I do is keep my initial bets low and watch for the indicators of a hot, neutral, or cold table. I then adjust my betting accordingly, keeping the bets low when things are going bad for everyone and leveraging larger bets when the table is hot.

I could go on and on with elimination (tournament) blackjack strategy, but let's just say that if you're sick of getting screwed by donkeys at the poker table, check out elimination blackjack. It's so much fun and you have a better chance of actually winning more money more consistantly.
