On the History Channel's "Breaking Vegas" series, I see three ways that people have removed the house edge at a casino: math, gadgets, and subterfuge. Examples include card counting, blackjack computers, and past posting, respectively.

Needless to say, remote viewing has never been featured. But that thought leads me to wonder: would perfect knowledge of the dealer's hole card give you a better edge than card counting does?

I would seek out the solution myself, but I came up with the question too late at night. I'd probably either have to do lots of math, or write a big ol' computer simulation. My guess is that it would.
