Life is game, game is life

The guy in seat number four slams the table with his fist. We move on there. Nobody likes being watched while getting massacred.
The lesson here is that emotions run high at the blackjack odds table . So to best blend in you must smile and “celebrate” a decent win, and likewise show obvious disappointment upon losing. As ridiculous as this might sound, when I first started playing in casinos for blackjack, I didn’t get “mad enough” at times, probably because I knew that in the end I’d end up a winner. That’s a common mistake made by rookie card counters. Get mad when you lose and smile when you win. Look around for examples of how to act - good ones are everywhere. Of course, don’t overreact. Nothing bombs more than someone pretending to be either elated or disappointed.
Actually there is one thing more detrimental than a phony act. And that’s hanging around for longer than you should, otherwise known as “wearing out your welcome.” Had we actually been playing all this while, it might have been time to move on - for any number of reasons ranging from how many units we were up or down to the sudden interest of our friendly pit boss in the way our bets seem to rise and fall. Nothing is better than preserving your longevity. And that’s exactly what we decide to do when time start playing blackjack.
