Found when you cheat, that if you click "Leave" BEFORE you click "Stay", leave the box confirming your leaving up on the screen without confirming Yes or NO. You can now still click "Stay", watch dealers cards, if your cheat card pops up click "Yes" to leave the table immediately. if your fast enough you wont be caught cheating. 50% of those times, you'll still win, and get the gold anyways.

Hey Zep,
What screen resolution do you use? I'm running it in windowed mode at 1200x1060 (I think that's the number), and the "confirmation box" blocks my view of my cards.
Yeah, I guess I already know what card I used, and I only have to watch the dealer's hand for that card, but it seems like it takes some practice. It was a little disconcerting at first, and I ran out of cheat cards before I really felt comfortable using this method, but I bet it works great with some practice.
When you double down, there is no "stay," so I suppose you have to be quick on the draw to "leave."
I'll keep at it.

PS - I developed two new tips today for the Blackjack guide that I will integrate (when I add your tip into the guide too).
The first is that I recommend you
have at least 4,000 gold before you start cheating, just in case you're unlucky and start with a losing streak. I've gone in with less than 3,000 a couple of times and lost it all because I couldn't absorb an initial losing streak. Lose two 495 double-downs in a row and you've lost 1,980 in gold.
The second is that sometimes a pirate ends up with a lot of extra 2s and 3s in their cheat cards. Instead of waiting for the perfect hand (an 8 or 9) to use them in blackjack (you could lose a lot of gold to that cheating dealer waiting for the "perfect opportunity" to cheat), just take all your 2s and 3s over to the poker table and cheat with them there. I averaged about 250 gold per cheat card today with nothing but about twenty 2s and 3s. Because the NPCs tend to fold if you bet on the first round, if they have bad cards, starting EVERY hand with a "raise to 40" encourages all the NPCs holding 2s or 3s in their hands to fold. I only got caught cheating once. So the new tip is
Take your leftover 2s and 3s to the poker table and cheat with them there.
