Goddamn Oaklawn! What a bunch of sore losers, Oaklawn gets their asses kicked at their own Blackjack game and they resort to banning a player for 5 years and refuse to pay him his winnings! Gimme a fucking break! This is the true nature as to how casinos act towards winning players for using their wits to beat the house. This incident didn't even make the local news but it should have. I could train an army of card counters to go to war with Oaklawn on their Blackjack tables.

Here is the overview of what happened:

"Following an incident in May 2025, Oaklawn Casino in Hot Springs, Arkansas, kicked out a card counter and banned him for five years. The gambler, known online as "Brutal Chameleon," won $18,887 at the blackjack table but was initially denied a payout. He eventually received his full winnings after involving the Arkansas Racing Commission.

The incident and its aftermath
The player: The incident involved a professional card counter named "Brutal Chameleon," who was winning at a blackjack table at Oaklawn.

The winnings: He won $18,887 in total but was initially only paid a portion of his winnings. The casino withheld $8,887, suspecting card counting.
The payout dispute: He eventually received the full amount after contacting the Arkansas Racing Commission and a lawyer.

The ban: Though he received his money, Oaklawn banned him from the casino for five years.

Casino's actions: The casino has not commented publicly on the incident."
