Yeah, they stole my money and claim it is possible to do card counting on 8 deck online blackjack tables.

Card counting in 8 deck shoe, hmm interesting, I am not sure if casino can reveal much here to avoid future exploitations. 

To be fair, it's possible to card count on any non-continuous shuffle table, including these 8-deck, low-penetration games. It can be done, but it isn't worth the time, as multiple card counters on youtube already demonstrated. They've already concluded that the online blackjack is too slow, too low pen, and uses too many decks to make significant money. At least not manually.

Even the providers do card counting on their own. That is the whole reason they know if and when such conditions occur. They simultaneously monitor player betting and gameplay pattern, and when all of these align they have a very solid reason to flag your account as a card counter and notify the casino.

In that case the casino may, especially if you are in profit, void all your previously placed blackjack bets and ban you from further gameplay. Basically what happened here.

There really is nothing to reveal, as this is already widely known.

Of course, it is theoretically possible that you did not count cards and that the aligning patterns are purely by chance. If that is the case, well, that sucks.
