Anyone please give a simple answer based on the average casino.

I know many players who plain cheat now. They've been doing it years and still not caught. Not even a mention from casino contractors. Im very surprised they still haven't been caught. These were card counters who turned to cheating after shuffle machines became widespread
Blackjack will rarely ever have conditions that are met nowadays.
From shuffle machines, to crappy penetration, no mid shoe entries.
Most card players I know are struggling. Its not like it once was. It doesnt mean there are still opportunities but if you stick to one type of AP then you are limited to whatever opportunities you have in local casinos. Travel and scouting is expensive so few players do it without having a good network of trusted players who share information. Good information and intelligence is important. Expanding our network and inteligence is our main purpose of the forum.
In short, sticking to one game is very limiting. Learn to recognize opportunity in any game or circumstance. With broad knowledge you can better see opportunity.
You mentioned Phil. One of the nicest guys in the game. He is quite hurt to be branded a cheat.
