Players should also consider the penetration, which is how far into the shoe the dealer goes before shuffling. Deeper penetration is usually more favorable for card counters. Additionally, understanding the betting spread is crucial, as it determines how much to bet based on the count. Players should also be aware of the casino's tolerance for card counting and be prepared for potential scrutiny or even expulsion if caught. Finally, having a solid understanding of basic strategy is essential to maximize the effectiveness of a card counting system.
