Do you count ? Do you cheat ?

[kerkael]

Be honest:

Do you use an app, a piece of paper, or excel to count cards?
or
Do you play it regular, and just count in your head?
or
Do you just feel it?

Ha ... by the number of answers compared to the number of views, it does not seem absurd to consider that EVERYBODY counts.

So, what is your favorite method ?

Did you develop an app for that ?

It's only not absurd to consider it if YOU count. If you don't count, thinking everybody counts would indeed be absurd, because you know at least one person doesn't

In live plays, I count 10+ cards most of the time. Sometimes I also just estimate the chances of busting.
In turn based, I draw or pass depending on the score. And if it's tight and more at the end of the draw pile, I also consult the game log

What does the number of views tell you?

Obviously anybody who didn't answer the question must be embarrassed of their answer and are therefore cheaters.

It ain't for money, so I don't cheat. I just go with the feel.
(I wouldn't cheat for money either, I'm just saying what's the point to not being honest?)

Not so "obvious"....people read forums/prompts and reply if it interests them. This one is boring and most people probably don't care. Also, little life hack, when the post/op/question is accusatory rather than info seeking, less people are likely to reply.

It's like asking a girlfriend "is there anything about us that you are unhappy with and want to work on?" versus "are you cheating on me?". They may both be eventually getting to the same concern, but one is much more likely to trigger a conversation.

The OP literally asked if people cheat. If they just asked "what methods do you use to keep track of cards, make informed decisions, especially mid to late game?", they likely get more responses.

Also, literally every post for every game has far more views than replies. The ones that garner the most replies are the ones that are actually interesting, or worth debating.

You should get your sarcasm meter recalibrated. This was my point. (Well, that and:
