I've also written software used in several differnet casinos (actually, nearly *all* casinos) and you couldn't be more wrong. Most casinos have at least one table thats advertised as single deck.

As for counting cards in BJ at casinos, here's the advice I give everybody that asks - you can train for years and work out a perfect system and you'll still only make about $8/hr if you work by yourself. I've seen this firsthand. Invent a better system (like the MIT guys) or you're just spinning your wheels.
