This is the 23rd thread on this.
a. You need the dealer and/or floor to be in on it to get the deck into play.
b. Dealer has to be in on it to present the deck to the device
c. Whale just happens to ask for a deck change. Are all the decks marked?
d. Not worth it at 2/5
e. Rather easily detected
f. Could be a problem in underground/private games. But this is not the Forum for that. And if you play in underground/private games, you better know how to protect yourself, period.

Point (a) explains why the dealer has to be in on it.
The other threads have all the other details.
Won't happen in casino but definitely has happened in two local games and then the cheats were caught.

It is pretty trivial to have IR camera's installed in a room and see, very easily, if a phone is using IR LED's.

Trivial to do and will be highly effective. But is it actually being done?

Please search for the previous threads about this. Here is one, which was also closed after people couldn't help themselves from going into rigtard territory.
