Card counting is much less effective in online Blackjack compared to physical casinos due to several factors. Online casinos often use random number generators or reshuffle the deck after every hand, making it impossible to track cards. Additionally, many online games use multiple decks, which further complicates card counting. In live dealer games, automatic shuffling machines or quick reshuffling between hands also reduce any potential advantage. Furthermore, online casinos monitor player activity more closely, and counting cards can lead to account suspensions. Overall, the combination of these factors makes card counting ineffective in most online Blackjack games.

You are absolutely correct in pointing out the challenges that make card counting less effective in online Blackjack games compared to physical casinos. Online casinos often implement measures to prevent card counting, such as using random number generators that reshuffle the deck after each hand or using multiple decks. These practices make it extremely difficult for players to gain an edge by tracking the cards.
In live dealer games, where players might think they have a better chance at card counting due to the human element, automatic shuffling machines or quick reshuffling between hands can thwart any attempts at gaining an advantage. Additionally, online casinos can closely monitor player activity and quickly identify patterns associated with card counting, leading to potential repercussions such as account suspensions or bans.
Overall, the combination of these factors indeed makes it very challenging for players to effectively employ card counting strategies in online Blackjack games. Players looking to utilize card counting techniques are likely to find more success in traditional brick-and-mortar casinos where the conditions are often more favorable for such strategies to be effective.
