that story was from my rookie year too. I have seen some crazy stuff and wasted a good portion of my 20's reading Dick Francis novels (originally on paperback, more recently on kindle for iphone) and 2 plus 2's latest. I have never known a 'shill'. At least, I never knew that I knew a 'shill', if in fact I have known one. If 'shilling' goes on here in Northern California, it does so without the frown and badge of the 'proposition player'. But, I guess its possible. I am a prop player online as well, and its strictly forbidden to discuss the situation, details, etc, period. You can't tell anyone ur a prop. And you can't be mean, those are the rules. For some reason I feel like there is a breech of trust on the house's part when it comes to having such players. I see why they have them, and I see why they don't disclose the fact, but I still don't like it.
Anyway, one of my points was that shilling may very well take place in card clubs here in Nor Cal and elsewhere, and much like the props online, no one who is a 'shill', a non cheating one obvi, is permitted to talk about it. Any thoughts?
I can't see it being legal with the cities that issue the licenses for the dealers, the floormen, and the props, but that doesn't mean it doesn't happen...
If this seems incredibly out of nowhere, it is. I was just trying to make some folks laugh in a heated thread that was based on an off base claim by a member,IMHO. And as tangents go, Here we are... the link to my post from that thread is here...>https://www.casinomeister.com/forums/threads/inet-playthrough-not-changing.41405/
