How did this guy win $1.3 million playing Caribbean 21?

This news story is from 2003, so it may have been discussed here in the past -- http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/4449401/

What do you think he did to win so much? Take advantage of a small house edge? Take advantage of non-random cards? Take advantage of a flawed program? Just lucky?

did he ever get paid?

You are talking about Pirate of 21, an infrequent poster here. Cipher has helped him get a substantial part of his winnings.

At one time, Pirate of 21 posted at least some of his plays somewhere but it has been unavailable for quite some time. I'd like to see how he did it too but that would be up to Pirate.

If you have some time to spend you should read it. It's 50 pages long but it's a fascinating story.

Legendary thread. Actually Piraae was around here recently so maybe he could update us on the eventual outcome as it was so far in the past?

Wow, I read the whole thing...my eyes are bleeding and I have the sniffles now.

Wonder how it all worked out?

As i recall Pirate had a limit of $10,000 a hand at BJ. With such a limit $1,3million is entirely feasible.

I would never let it build up to such an enormous ammount, but any tips to win that much?! lol
